    Oh sorry, I was more referring to weapons used by men. ^^

    Special FX of different weapons in the Third Imperium

    Hey! So we have this gazillion of different weapons in Traveller, which is nice. However, I have issues to imagine what effects each weapon would cause upon firing. What is visible, what can be heard (or even felt)? Sometimes I want to describe my players a battle scene, but it becomes...

    Easily creating individual NPC / PC portraits

    I could totally imagine to build the player's starship including its interior. I did this already in the game "Space Engineers" but I have to say: That game is too limited as of now (still alpha), especially when it comes to interior items. :(

    Easily creating individual NPC / PC portraits

    Sure, in theory you could use any character generator. But I think that the current EvE editor excels in terms of options, as well as overall quality. There are so many things which you can adjust, you can even morph the underlying bone structure of the face and the body. ;) And when taking...

    Easily creating individual NPC / PC portraits

    Hey there! I just found an incredible way to generate an infinite number of high quality portraits for my NPCs, but I have given the same opportunity to my players. I think it is really nice to just open my laptop and show to my players: "Look, this is <insert name here> you are talking to!"...

    General Information Chip?

    Ah, thank you! Somehow the PDF reader was not able to find / scan the headline. And since there is no index for single items ... I was kinda lost. ;)

    General Information Chip?

    So, according to the book "Cybernetics" it is possible in some careers to get a "General Information Chip" implant. But I can't find anything about this in my books. Even using the search function (I got the books as PDF) doesn't tell me anything. :( So, who knows what kind of item / implant...

    Shoot the tyres! Destroy the turret! Headshot!

    Since me and my players love hitzones and thus a more dramatic game feeling, I came up with my own rules covering hit zones and aiming for certain areas of a body. ;) I think due to the rule "the character can only aim for a zone if he/she used at least 2 minor actions for aiming" the players...

    A few newbie questions

    I really tried to get some answers using the search function, but that failed. So being new to Traveller, I have some questions: 1.) My players would like to add a medical bay to their custom ship, but such a module is not mentioned in the core book. How much should it cost? How much space...

    Android Player Characters

    Is that one compatible with the rules of Mongoose Traveller (2008 Edition) ?

    Android Player Characters

    My Cybernetics book states the following about a Cyberbrain: "At TL15 it is possible to replicate the organic brain with a purely electronic device. This can be inserted into any full body simulacrum or head replacement unit. The preparation procedure involves copying and encoding the full...

    Android Player Characters

    I do not have the robotics book. On rpg Drivethru the ratings for that supplement have been quite bad, so I thought that book might not be worth the money. ;)

    Android Player Characters

    Hmmm... why would such an Android be particularly rare? I mean, the Cybernetics rule book allows for mechanical brain replacements that are able to compute memories, emotions and a personality just like a human would do. In the end, there will be no owner, the Android is an individual and some...

    Android Player Characters

    Hey there! =) I am going to start playing Traveller with my PnP group soon, but we haven't created characters so far. What I would like to offer to my players (or at least one of them) is the option to play an Android who is as intelligent as a human. But sadly, the core book doesn't state...
