CT and MGT

[theram68]

Hi I am knew to Traveler and the forums so I appologize if this question has been answered. I have the Core Rulebook for MGT and I have bought a bunch of adventures for CT and want to know if they are compatible. Thank you.

They are almost 100 % compatible, but it would perhaps be a good idea
to take a close look at them before using them in play in order to make
sure that some minor difference in a detail will not cause problems.

Thank you. I figured they were by looking at them but watned to be positive. Appreciated your help

Yeah. The main differences between the rule sets relate to character generation (which are still pretty similar, and both basically produce a UPP and a skill list) and combat (but still using almost the same weapons and armour, and similar enough that you shouldn't need to make adjustments).

You will find the odd piece of equipment from CT not included in the basic MGT book (i.e. SMG's, various ships), but it's easy to substitute, and there are many new toys in MGT that were either added to later CT or other Traveller editions (or in some cases are altogether new) that you may want to use in the CT adventures.

Thank you for your help. It was much needed. I think I am going to start my group in the Ley Sector. I bought a bunch of adventures from there.
