I suggest watching Band of Brothers mini series to get a sense of the interactions of the 'command' or HQ section or team of a military unit. Also watching Saving Private Ryan might offer a little insight on the interactions of a small squad level team on a mission (though most squad level...

Why, specifically, do you make this assertion? Are you saying all of their mods have this bias, some or one of the mods?

1/6 Earth gravity like our moon has. Look for some old footage of the Apollo astronauts walking around on the moon to get a sense of how off worlders will have to move around. IMO the Imperial starport will have artificial gravity embedded into the surface and set to about 80% of normal Earth...

There is also Peter's smaller 100 dton J1, M1 Golf Ball Trader from Classic Traveller that could be easily modified for Mongoose Traveller.

Oh come on, it's not like they cured horrible diseases, rebuilt lost colonies, or designed new battleships. They got their letters and patents the ol' fashion way, sufficient payment to those in power. :roll: :wink: :D

I think the main reason for the stasis during the trip is to save on consumables, water, food, and air. Granted one could recycle that material but it's probably more efficient both in terms of volume and mass to just use stasis chambers. Don't forget that between Alien and Aliens seventy five...

Don't know if it will help but I wrote an essay on how to setup and use CC2 to create Traveller deckplans. It can be found at FreelanceTraveller.

Yes, they are rather tasty ground up and grilled over open flame, topped with mayo, mustard, ketchup, and pickle on a sesame seed flour bun served with a SolaCola. I always thought it was a terrible travesty that GDW put the K'Kree on the opposite side of the Imperium from the Aslan. Boy those...

The Reft Sector is one sector trailing and one sector rimward of the Spinward Marches. SM _ |_|_ |_| Reft Looking at p56 you see the Great Rift on the map. That is an area of space that has very few star systems, usually on the order of one or two systems per subsector (or about 10-20...

You are not restricted to use the map from the Foreven Logo License. You can make you own map of the Foreven Sector. From the Foreven Logo License: So your New Home Federation could occupy half of the Foreven Sector that you create specifically for this Federation or whatever you wish.

From the FFE Fair Use Policy 2008: "Fair Use Explicitly Applies to non- Mongoose Traveller editions. Only Mongoose Traveller is governed by both the OGL and the TTL." From the Read Me First of the Mongoose Development Pack: "The campaign my group is currently playing is set in the Original...

If you decide to make jump have varible time in jumpspace dependent on the installed jump drive number versus the actual jump made then there will be certain changes in travel. For instances if you decide that a jump 6 drive can make a one parsec (jump 1) distance in about a day (28 hours if...

If you don't want to use nobility within your setting then you could relate social standing to affluence like for the US. Or you could base in upon some other form of social stratification. Though the labels and defining distinctions may change from culture to culture, the process of...

Might want to look at pallets (also called skids) that can be combined with bulk boxes. There is also the standardized US Air Force 'pallet', the 463L. Another option is using or basing containers on the ULD or unit loading device. Some ISO containers are better suited for certain pallets also...

I agree. To me with the introduction of Virus GDW basically substituted a multitude of "big powerful AI's (where before in the Traveller TL tree true AI was a few more tech advances beyond the Imperium's TL F) mini kingdoms" that in general wanted to be god, caretaker, dictator, etc. for the...
