    Traveller rules as a house system?

    It's only a question of time -- we can wait -- mwha ha ha.. btw I like the Ubiquity version.

    Dark Conspiracy Interview

    Given how much I like your stuff I am hoping we might see a return of the *Dark Times*

    Prison Colony Dilemma

    I would say that a child raised in a prison colony probably isn't exactly a prisoner, since a prison colony that has children is some other kind of sick place -- thus Rogue or Drifter -- assuming that the prisoner got out. Otherwise you simply accept you have chosen an edge case and allow it as...

    Mainframe Computer

    I have a sector wide robot "intelligence" like that in my Trojan Reaches - one single instance in a Gen Eric Bar at most starports. Called Mr Lovegrove.

    Glitterband ~ Reynolds

    I am thinking of running some "Panoply" prefect adventures set in the "Glitterband" of Alistair Reynolds' Dreyfus books in the wider, longer Revelation Space sequences. I'd love to chat to people with Traveller minds as to how to do it. In some ways it's very easy, 10,000 habitats and er 100...

    Mongoose Acquires Dark Conspiracy - Coming 2026!

    Very excited about this. I really think that it stands alone as a very competent and enjoyable and 'different' near future horror setting. I don't see the need to add magic or anything to make it like other horror games. Part of me also wonders how up to date the game needs to be? I think on...

    Traveller Release Schedule 2025

    Of course. The political wing. Please *do not* call any future edition revisions the "Core XXXX Update", it really makes it look odd, supplemental rather than core, and confuses newcomers since it implies that it has a shelf life. The number of times I have to clear this up IRL and online is...

    No Florians, though? Totes agree, indeed I have it on my pile to reread and use.. maybe JTAS articles if nowhere else?

    Books with different races

    Plus there is an emergent view in history and anthropology that it is only the elite that shifts genetically to any extent, but that the conquered people change culturally and tend to adopt the dominant language, religions and culture of the conqueror. However not always, or only for a while, if...

    [2300 AD] Any news on Invasion?

    Me too! I think it's the same word but spelt correctly for a German.. it's Käfer spelt without the umlaut. So it's a long 'a', like 'Kayfer', and that's probably a good idea since the slur is 'kaffir', which I think is pronounced with a short 'a' Bemoaning that you have a non German keyboard is...

    State of the Mongoose 2024

    I agree. Licensing them to a good boardgame company seems wise. Plus I bet there'd be a stream of boardgamers to the RPGs from that. I'd let the boardgame company have free reign on design and *also mechanics* ..

    Anyone ever played "after" Wrath of the Ancients?

    Of course, you assume the Ancients War is over... at your peril, mwhahaha

    Traveller 2E TAS InDesign Template From DriveThruRPG

    Any update? Still standing by with my copy of Affinity and the Florian League campaign notes. The .psd files above are still not in the package on DriveThru...
