Adventure 3: Trillion Credit Squadron - on Drivethru

[barnest2]

Oh, good, the author is here! Barnest, in the book, you state that a missile pack can only be reloaded in a starport. Shouldn't they also be able to be reloaded in a hanger? I would think that these would be excellent weapon mounts for fighter squadrons...

Yes, that makes a lot of sense and I should have thought of it. I'm afraid I didn't even think of fighter mounted pods

Congratulations, by the way. Not only is it a good Traveller book, but Trillion Credit Squadron is one of those particularly iconic books, and you've more than done it justice.

That is amazing to hear Thank you very much.

Maybe could do some sort of VASSAL module? I really liked the A Call To Arms one, and it'd be a nice way to actually use the Alternative Movement rules from High Guard - once you get multple on multiple combat, the rules for ranges are kind of awkward because the range bands of one ship from another aren't linear

I'll have a play and see what I can do.

I thought the same thing before it was even released...

I'd love to see a mini's game for TCS Especially if it was using the vector rules, because those are really nice...

8) <--- Vassal module

I would be up for a game!

I'd have to figure out what the Blasphemy/Indelicacy/Expletive I'm doing first - I did a Noble Armada module but that was ultimately just reskinning the existing ACTA one. This would be more or less a start-from-scratch job.

So when is Mongoose's first TCS Day????

If we did this at Mongoose HQ, who would be interested in attending?

 

[barnest2]

I really really hope I could Hell, I could even referee it ^^ It's not like I don't know the rules. It would really depend on the day though.

 

[Old timer]

I would be very interested in such a day event.

 

[dragoner]

Now I'm jealous.

Definitely interested. Either as a straight 'fleet bash' or as a weekend campaign.

Maybe pick a Trojan Reach subsector and run something akin to the Earth-Centauri war weekend? Would make an appropriate follow-on to Pirates of Drinax - Aslan vs Imperial Fleet...

Thanks
