    Dark Conspiracy Developers Diary

    That’s fantastic news, summer‑ish (well, winter‑ish for us in the upside‑down) works perfectly for me, and having the book in hand by year’s end sounds ideal. I’ll definitely be watching for those art previews!

    Dark Conspiracy Developers Diary

    I’m really excited to start playing Dark Conspiracy. Do we have a rough idea of the release date yet? Is there any chance the PDF might drop mid‑year, toward the end of the year, or is it more likely to be next year instead?

    (Developer's Diary) Missions

    Hide the truth. Hide it well. Bind the truth. Bind it deep. Bury the truth. Bury it whole. For truth unleashed consumes the world.

    Traveller 5E

    I was just thinking if the aim it to bring new players into Traveller, we already have 2D6 for the realism. So, lets expand the player base by introducing new players and entice them with heroic Traveller 5e. I was actually thinking about the planet Eox from the Starfinder setting. The thought...

    Traveller 5E

    My initial reaction was, let’s put it nicely... shock! But after thinking about it more, 2D6 Traveller leans toward realism, while Traveller 5e, drawing on other d20 systems, will lean toward the heroic side. I don’t think the Charted Space setting is the best fit for Traveller 5e, but imagine a...

    State of the Mongoose 2025

    This all sounds fantastic, thanks for sharing! I’m especially excited about Dark Conspiracy. Building on the Traveller rules gives it a solid foundation I already know and enjoy, and I love that the combat is deadly. I feel that danger should make every encounter tense and unpredictable, and...

    Dark Conspiracy "Eras" Graphic Novel?

    With the release of Far Trader as a graphic novel, I began to wonder: what if Dark Conspiracy received the same treatment? Imagine a series that follows a cast of iconic characters across the different eras, beginning with The Unseen War and expanding as each new core rulebook is published...

    Dark Conspiracy Developers Diary

    Would I be right to assume that even thought there will be a difference between the Dark Conspiracy skills and those in Traveller, most other elements would be interchangeable? Such as bringing in Traveller weaponry, armour and other equipment into DC, and, what's really on my mind, Dark Tech...

    Dark Conspiracy Interview

    I'm excited by this as it will use the Traveller rules. Hopefully this means it will allow me to easily mix Traveller and Dark Conspiracy together. That way I can add starships to a Dark Conspiracy campaign, or pinch some supernatural elements and add them to a Traveller campaign. Looking...

    [JBE] Kraft Fighter (Feedback Please)

    The light blue borders on the grey background don't look right to me. Could I suggest a dark red. The grid on the desk plan is distracting. Makes the legend a bit hard to read. Maybe if the grid was lighter it would be ok, or even have no grid as per the text area. The drawing of the fighter...

    Latest PDF Update: Bookmarks Not Working?

    My original post lacked details so here they are. On my i7 running Windows 10 with Adobe Reader DC both the original and the updated PDFs both render quickly in singe page mode. In 2 page mode, they both appear sluggish as the page elements are rendered, but are usable. The latest updated PDF...

    Latest PDF Update: Bookmarks Not Working?

    I didn't even know there was an update. Received no notification from DriveThruRPG. Checked my contact options and Mongoose are on the list. The latest update has no bookmarks, is twice as large in size and it seems to take longer to render in Adobe Reader. Disappointing :(.

    Traveller Release Schedule Changes

    If waiting means higher quality, then I am all for it :D. Especially for the core books which will be the foundation for everything else for the next few years. Since High Guard is delayed, why not take advantage and keep its playtest going? That will allow a couple of extra months of feedback...

    2300:AD books and new traveller

    It is very likely there will be a new 2300AD core book for the new Traveller, according to this thread: http://forum.mongoosepublishing.com/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=114987&hilit=2300

    DriveThruRPG or Mongoose Store?

    I tend to buy my PDFs through DriveThruRPG, but I am now thinking of using Mongoose's store for my PDFs so more of my gaming dollar goes to Mongoose instead of a percentage (30% I believe) going to DriveThruRPG. The only downside I can see is that I won't get emails notifying me when a PDF is...
