Ask MongooseMatt ANYTHING!!!

[Terry Mixon]

Okay, not really anything, but when we post questions about the rules or potential typos in the feedback area, we often don't receive a response, so I'm creating this thread in the hopes of getting some response to questions we have, even if it is "we're looking at that" or some such.

I'll kick this off with a question I posted a few days ago. The emergency low berths in High Guard 2022 Update are listed at MC1 a pop. Seems real pricy since Mongoose 1e and all the previous versions of Traveller we checked had it being KCr100. In Mongoose 1e, it was listed as MCr.1 and we suspect a typo. Can we get some clartity on that so we can update the starship build sheet to reflect what we suspect if we're right? Thanks.

Also, allow me to suggest that adding KCr, BCr (or GCr to please @Geir), and TCr to your repertoire would be really helpful and would minimize the complaints about not having comma separation in your big numbers, too.

And sorry for all the wild AMA questions you're about to get @MongooseMatt.

@MasterGwydion and I have different views on this. My take is that whatever is clamped needs to be designed to mate with the optional built-in docking hatch, like you said.

Otherwise, you are correct. If it is designed to mate, it will work. Otherwise, it won’t.

Adventure Class Ships page 102 disagrees with you.

"The fighters can be swapped for any small craft up to 30 tons but the carrier’s performance will be significantly affected if it is carrying larger craft."

It says nothing about access, so the quote doesn’t materially change the discussion.

And I should have copied and responded to this in the other thread. Let’s be good campers and move over.
