As per the Traveller's Aid Society Policy on DrivethruRPG, publishing under the TAS banner means we are "allowed to use the Traveller setting presented in the current Traveller edition books (...) as well as any Mongoose-published book covering the official Charted Space setting (for example, Behind the Claw)"
Does anybody know (or can anybody from Mongoose answer) whether that also includes adventures?
When running the published adventures for my groups I have found myself doing significant work to EXPAND (inserting content into the gaps) or EXTEND (Sequels or other follow up adventures) the published material.
As I work myself up to fully fledged original adventures, I thought this middle step might provide value to me as experience and to other Referees as additional content to use alongside Mongoose's official stuff.
Some examples of what I mean:
Expand
- The Calixcuel incident dedicates 4 pages to the 100+ floor descent the Travellers need to undertake (and 1.5 of those pages are explicitly detailing the final 2 floors). I created a d66 table of unique (or semi-unique) encounters which I fleshed out in individual entries, as well as basic travel rules for determining how many floors the Travellers can travel in a single staircase before finding it blocked and needing to find a new way down (and thus triggering an encounter)
Extend
- Following the recovery of the Perfect Stranger and the conclusion of Islands In the Rift, what do the other powers in the cluster do? I've written 4 short adventures involving some of the other governments which all culminate in a finale at a "Peace Summit" which may serve as the catalyst for the cold war finally turning hot.
