Major new alien race? The Cytralin Unity! The real crossroads of Charted Space out in Hinterworlds sector. Direct heirs to the Ancients, suppliers of high technology to the Third Imperium. A transplanted human race, the Lemura Teg and their counterparts the Lemura Gav (or was it the other way...

Make some noise about Hinterworlds and Old Expanses and you might well be rewarded...

Hi All, I have a thing for Hinterworlds, it was the sector my chr found himself in when I first stated playing Megatraveller with some very good friends. Kerry's point about a Cold War was exactly what I was thinking, except, more of Peter Hopkirk's 'Great Game' though ;) Let's hope Mongoose...

Hopefully, I know a Hinterworlds sector book lies with Mongoose...

You'll have to ask the Mongoose editorial team, I don't want to give anything away. If you want to see a Hinterworlds sectorbook make some noise about one and show them how popular it would be. There was a campaign published in Challenge called Behind Blue Eyes in the 90s based there so it has...

Hopefully! I am given to understand manuscript for a Hinterworlds & Old Expanses sector book sits with Mongoose right now!

Love the Sundowner!

A manuscript for Hinterworlds and Old Expanses sector book has been submitted to @MongooseMatt (hoping there are not two Matts at Mongoose) for approval. Hinterworlds focus is around Solomani versus Imperial diplomatic and covert fencing in the face of the spectre of a second Solomani Rim War...

Yes, G'Naakbusters is right, Challenge is the main source. There is some information on the Traveller Wiki about specific polities and races but... FEAR NOT! I am 95% finished on the first draft of a sector book for Hinterworlds and Old Expanses with the theme of the first Cold War, the Great...

Hello sophonts, I am just checking as I have had this assumption since 1989 and I want to make sure I am correct. In Mongoose Traveller the fuel used when jumping is burned in a short space of time to generate the singularity (into which the ship also injects hydrogen). It does not burn the...

Come on! It's November! I want to buy the Third Imperium book! Chop-chop! Jaldi! ;)

Thanks for the replies! I've been looking at those diagrams and trying to fit the Traveller companion's gas giant zoning to them. Basically I am trying to work out with loose stretchy science whether a Traveller could stand on their starship (in a vacc suit) in the top of the extreme deep zone...

Morning All. Does anyone know anything about gas giants? I am trying to get am idea of what the pressure and temperature would be in the top of the extreme deep zone. Jupiter has a 'sea level' where the pressure is 1 atm at about 1000Km depth into its atmosphere and I'm trying to work out how...

One minor point. I can't find any definition of unrefined fuel. I have always taken it to mean any liquid or gas incorporating hydrogen in the molecule or mixture (water, peroxide, methane, diesel even..) Not sure if someone has pointed this out or I have missed the definition in one of the...
