Hey Travellers! It's 001-2026AD! Happy New Year to you all. It is my sincere wish for all of you that this year brings you joy and love! Remember to take care of each other, it was the only way many of us got through 2025 and 2020 and 2019. Spare a thought for our brothers and sisters and...

Thankies Friendies! Take some Heroic Inspiration from petty cash.

I noticed that the Emissions Absorption Grid is in the High Guard book but not the 2022 Update. Is there a rules reason for it, or did it just not make the cut?

This is Jack Burton at the Pork-Chop Express and I'm talkin' to whoever's listenin'. It's like I told my last wife.I says "Honey,I never drive faster than I can see." "Besides that, it's all in the reflexes." You just listen to the Pork-Chop Express and take his advice on a dark and stormy...

On the dark side of a moon It was the Sixth of June I'm flyin' a Kenworth Pullin' logs Cabover Pete with a reefer on And a Jimmy Haulin' hogs We was burning for bear On the Khavle Main One jump out of Shakeytown I says "Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck And I'm about to put the hammer...

Oh the Humanity!

I appreciate the discussion. I agree that the term was developed honestly, and though tone-deaf, wasn't developed with malice. Hell, The Aliens movies are far far more central to the pop cultural lingo, and the xenomorphs are referred to as bugs all the time, because that's what they...

I'm a little reluctant to break open this can 'o worms (wyrms? wermz?) But this has been sticking in my head for about 30 years now. Sadly there's not enough Traveller:2300 or 2300AD community out there to have this discussion. At least until you fine folkies cast "RPG Necromancy" on this...

I remember Marc mentioning having a 'succession" plan on a podcast recently. I'm glad to see that Traveller has been given into some capable hands. Dare I say, A New Era for Traveller. I owe a debt to Marc for igniting my imagination that I can only pay forward, because it's far-far-far to...

Thank you. It was fun writing it up

Scholar: Physician would be my choice if I'm creating a character with an advanced medical degree. At rank Medic and Science Skills are all over the place. If the characters EDU score is 10+, they qualify for the Advanced Education Skill List. That would easily qualify for saying your...

I agree, Cumulative Damage adds dramatic tension to the situation, and the feeling that things are getting worse every round. Just to be extra mean, I'd toss in 2Dx20 Rads per turn to leave a reminder of that unprotected spacewalk.

As much as popular fiction and Hollywood like to make dramatic rather messy, explode-within-seconds spectacles of decompression in a vacuum. The reality is a bit dare I say, worse? The lack of external pressure on your body will cause most of the fluids contained therein to form a whole lot of...
