Right? As I have said, A scout courier with a single beam laser is more OP than a PC in BD, yet the PC world is awash with 100, 200 even 400 ton ships that PC's have with multiple turrets of usually double or better and starship weaponry that could level a squad of troops in BD in a heartbeat.

The original post was mainly about a hack for published PDF's from Mongoose of the Traveller rule books. If you are publishing your own PDF's just by printing to PDF and you seem to have an aversion to using Adobe to adjust page numbers, then this might not be the post for you. That said, it...

Wait... how did it get into MSWord? When the LEGAL copy that I am sure you have, must have come from a PDF originally?

Honestly, as a fellow GM, I have never understood what I call "GM BD Phobia", the fear of players having Battledress. Every GM that has it seems to think they have to consistently trip up their players from getting it, or in an almost vengeful way, make sure that if they get it, then in their...

Ship Shares... what the heck are they and why do they exist? Yes, I know the rules as written. I know those backwards and forwards. Please don't post rules clarifications unless you see I have made a mistake because I am pretty sure I know what the rules are. But what ARE ship shares? Not...

Not necessarily. Yes, in the case of something obvious already in our real world, like computer power and miniaturization, but in cases where, for game balance, the higher TL should come at a greater price, then for game balance reasons, make it higher. If one argues that this is not...

So a TL20 Rail Gun that costs zero tonnage? There'd be no room for the railgun ammo! You're not wrong though. TL+3 max should be stated explicitly.

Sure but I think I would feel a bit naked and blind if I was out in possibly hostile space and my Sensop couldn't bring at least +4 or better to his roll with everything added up. That's on the low end. Best would be skill of 4, with an expert, and a skill augment and a INT of 12 for total of...

Where is that rule?

The most expensive and at the same time most destructive Torpedo is the TL21 Multi-warhead Anti-Matter Torpedo, weighing in at 1DDx3 warheads, for the low low price of on 2Mcr. That understood, if some yahoos want to take a light small craft and stock it chock full of HE to send it on an...

I don't think you can coat missiles with reflec. This is due to-- INSERT QUANTUM HANDWAVIUM REASON HERE. (See, if you could coat missiles with reflec, you could coat starships with reflec and that would remove lasers from the space combat battlefield. We don't want that.)

In their defense, the idea of a torpedo is cool... and yes, there are many different uses of the word "torpedo". They used it in the oil industry and the railroad industry.... but probably here we just care about the naval usage of the term. well, if he shows up at my Traveller table, I am...

umm.... he did say "unmanned" in the comment you were responding to.

TL13+ or below that level is the difference between: "Damn the Torpedoes!" and "Damn! Torpedoes!" :D

I want to make a correction here my HR; any effect points beyond 4 can only be applied to another torpedo in the same salvo.
