First game today!

We'll see how it goes. Standard scenario setup - PCs in a bar, meet the patron, fight starts, hilarity ensues. Ought to be fun.
Two players new to the system and even to Traveller, so this will be interesting.

Let you know how it goes later.

Good luck! We had our second session last night, and trialled the combat system. We liked the simplicity of it, in parallel with much of the rest of the game. We did feel that it might have used a few more optional actions, the scientist with no combat skills particularly hoping for a "Total defence" option! Instead, he just spent 2 rounds aiming with his rock sampling drill before boring a new airway for an alien snake creature :twisted:

Well, just came back from the session and it was awesome! Interestingly, one guy had to leave early so we only had 3 hours to game, so we ended up spending time to make characters. And they loved it!

As one of the players said, just making characters in Traveller was better than actually playing certain other games. They even WANTED to roll up their own homeworlds, and make up background for them! Great stuff all around.

Next time, we've got two other players joining, so we'll make character for them, and then I imagine we'll actually play...
