    I find it somewhat difficult to imagine that a Free Trader or Fat Trader would actually use a highport unless the downport has some...

    The setting is absolutely not portrayed as being post scarcity. It just is difficult to think of reasons why it isn't given the...

    Vormaerin replied to the thread Traveller Spine Codes.
    Yes, I missed that you were talking about the Vehicle Handbook and the Vehicle Catalogue. I thought you were talking about the updated...
