Can anyone tell me who the artist was on the Traveller 2300 box cover and/or does anyone have a large copy of the image? This is the image I am looking for:

Wow... your opinion comes armed with quite the broad brush. -V

Yeah, it is since you seem to think ubiquitous means every joe shmo has one. The words "common on high tech worlds" does not appear. But as usual you ignore the post, pick the parts you want, and add nothing.

No, YOU stated in a previous post that they were common on high tech worlds, I have found no such thing in the rules that says that. The rules state that they are ubiquitous. Not that every man has a floaty car in the garage. So when comparing all terrain explorer vehicles at that price...

If we are doing chargen as a group then we hang out and pass the books around. If we aren't doing it as a group, my players come at the beginning of the campaign with their characters already done. I just check them over to make sure there are no errors before the game begins. I never control...

wow, lololol... 2 or 3k per month income, cost of living 400 per month. That is awesome. I think I will be moving to the traveler universe sometime soon... Waaaaaaaaay better than what I have to put up with in real life. Every time I start designing a game or a world to play in the first...

I haven't found any reference in the rules about the air/raft being common on high tech worlds. It says they are ubiquitous, remarkably reliable and flexible vehicles. The stat line says that they start at TL8. I take that to mean that they are indeed ubiquitous as they floaty car for people...

And good sir, you have just hit the nail on the head with trying to price anything with a common system when you are dealing with multiple worlds and multiple standards of living. Common pricing will never work when you are trying to cover low tech and high tech worlds. Poor world and rich...

Only if you are saying Ubiquitous to mean every common man has one. You could say the 100 ton scout is "Ubiquitous", but I would think that they are less common than a $300k Ferrari on the streets of Backwater, Kansas. At least as far as the common man is concerned. Except, that it most...

Not really getting your point. Are you saying that it is immature based on your statement that the product would have been good when you first got into the hobby? Is it a good product but you were let down by forum posters you hold in high esteem? What is exactly the inherent problem with...

In that case sir, I completely agree with you.... :D Shock of the nervous system, stumbling, etc can do awesome things. In our games, we have removed much of the "knockback" because it is just too unrealistic but have added system shock tests whenever somebody is hit to see if their body...

The laws of physics completely and totally disagree with you. Much like a bullet, an arrow or bolt does not have the mass to move a body. That is the pure and simple truth. -V

I would have allowed it but I would have limited it to movement like a Levitate spell. i.e. your PC would only have been able to traverse straight up with no lateral propulsion supplied, so if your volcano is angled or hill shape he would have wound up parallel to the rim but far far away. I...

Wrong, most people are sheep and will follow what they fear. After all, who wants to be the first person to die trying to prove their point. Just look to man's past for all kinds of leaders and despots who ruled through fear. I can think of two leaders who rose to power in the 30s through...

Except lawyers... yep... definitely except lawyers. :wink:
