    Yet another Battledress debate

    Certainly a set of PA throws off more signature than a person. And dropping into a hole covers most of that. Dirt is great stuff.And of course sensors can be spoofed, or overloaded. Real warfare is dynamic. You do something that works. The other guy not being an idiot does his best to...

    Yet another Battledress debate

    IanW, your arguments against PA are also valid against Infantry in general. You dont need super sensors to pick up troops today. Sure, PA will have extra emisions that can be detected, but you only need to detect somebody once. Many of the advantages of Infantry in general, and PA in...

    I liked a lot of the Gurps traveller suplements. the problem was after I got them, I realized I didnt like GURPS itself. Owen

    Traveller 5th Edition

    I do agree that MGT has added a lot to many of the products they have redone. 2nd ed 760 patrons is really great, as is CSC. I will use those both for years nomatter what edition is out. I am glad they are redoing things, I never collected the original. I was in college at that time, and...

    Traveller 5th Edition

    I would pwehaps have done this but for 2 reasons. 1. MGT already does most of what I want raveller to do, and I bet MM makes a good bit of off the License. So $100 sight unseen by me is not a good bet. 2. I just dumped $100 into Steve Jackson for Ogre 6 kickstart. For many of the reasons...

    Free Epic Campaign - The Pirates of Drinax

    So it is now July, a month gone by and no new anything. At this pace mongoose will lose the Traveller license before they finish it. Yes I know it is free. but, I would rather they just went ahead and finished it and sold it. This draging it out forever is a real downer. owen

    Prime Directive Traveller

    OK, which os just what you have on there, only it doesnt show up until you click on it. Did not realize that until the third time I went back there. Looks just right for me. Just proves you should not post when you first wake up. Owen

    Prime Directive Traveller

    Jean look at the Spinward Marches cover. Bottum third or quarter Red Traveller on black background. What you have now lloks great, but if I saw it in a store I would pass right by it as there is nothing to tell me it is traveller connected. Owen

    Prime Directive Traveller

    Hans here is a bit of a military tradition you probably have not heard of. I learned this when I was going through Army ROTC training, just before I dropped out and enlisted, and infact it help me realize I was not going to be a very good officer. One afternoon we spent a couple of hours going...

    for clarification: Ship Armor at level 12

    Take a stock Free trader. The 12 pt armor reduces cargo capacity by 22%, ups total cost 10% and monthly maintenence by 10%. Radiarion shuielding costs no space, but costs 50MCR, which when you consider the ship without it is only 36mcr is a huge increase. More than double your monthly...

    for clarification: Ship Armor at level 12

    A couple of points to drop on your PCs when they wnt to upgrade armor. First, you cant add it to an existing hull. Why not? Because you cant just deduct the volume from your gargo bay, unless you just want a big chunk of armor in one end of your hold. You would have to move every single...

    Melting fuel

    We have always used melted ice, without going into details. When you have fusion power and laser cannon melting ice doesnt seem much problem
