Thanks. I'm still working from a 2016 High Guard book, that information isn't in there. Or at least, I've never been able to find it. Is the "time to construct" still 1MCr per day in the more recent book?

Let's say our Travellers have a ship and they want to make some adjustments. Rip out some staterooms and turn it into extra fuel tankage, for instance. Upgrade the sensors. Change the weapons in one of the turrets. Elsewhere, I've seen the rule borrowed from Trillion Credit Squadron* in...

Thanks for the likes! I have dreams of playing the adventures I bought and read, and of eventually reaching the end of the campaign! I accidentally referred to PoD as my "retirement campaign", thinking I might finish it by then, but now I wonder if I might not get it really going until my group...

So, it's been a long time since autumn 2019.... I've been buying Traveller and Reaches-related things since then, but haven't had the player group I once had, nor the time to re-build that one. Other friends pulled me into running D&D for a few years, so I've been doing that. I did introduce one...

I'll be adding more to this thread soon. I ran a short game this summer, but have had trouble wrapping it up and summarizing. I've also been neglecting to read along over the years, so I am still a few (dozen) pages behind. For instance, I found I'd planted a job offer for my Travellers, but it...

That's the part that's driving me nuts-- which hints in which rumors? I don't see it!

So, it's only if they sail into Inchin that anything might happen?

I've finally gotten my hands on Naval Adventure 4: Enemy of my enemy, and I've read it through. I can't figure out how the Travellers are supposed to make the connections that lead to the final element of the adventure? What am I missing? All of the Intelligence Events I've read do not mention...

ooops, too late to vote, but I plan to run a naval game some day, possibly Star Trek influenced

This was the conclusion my crew came to pretty quickly.

I wrapped up a "season" of my Drinax game, the second so far--Real Life means our group needs to take a break for some months. A short summary: I was running the pirate half of Sun & Shadow. In our last game, they'd gotten some good intel, and were able to ambush and capture the Prophet Zomon...

CERTAINLY NOT! I, TOO, USE THAT VOICE WHEN THE KING SPEAKS! :lol:

I'm getting ready to address a similar question myself. They've taken on the Tanith "side quest": 4 ships just left with potentially dangerous parasites on board-- go catch them! My first thought would be to plot the NPC ship's route, then roll 2d6 (or3) for each system entered. 2= something...

Re: the player with the scout ship-- it can either be turned into shares, or let them keep it. What they do with it is up to the players. I could see it being used for scouting, visiting planetary offices without being a visible warship, or a courier (have to keep the King and/or Princess informed!)

I read it as the whole crew takes the radiation damage. I didn't want to roll stats for the whole crew,so I assumed the average 7+7+7=21 damage capacity for all of them, and 8d6 damage (average 28) and 4 permanent END reduction looked like near-total crew death to me.
