I've been off the boards for well over a year for various reasons, work, shifted from Traveller to other games, but now I'm back.
I did participate a little the the play test when it first came out, mostly interested in realistic internal components like a small med bay and/or first aid station vs "full surgery center" on small tramp freighters... and got my discount for the new rules, which I am FINALLY about to take advantage of.
But first, some basic questions.
1) I've gone as far back as May 2016 on this board with the announcement of the new 2e rules, but have not seen much in errata discussions. Have the new core book and central supply catalog been updated (both in pdf and hard back) addressing any errata from its first printing?
2) Upon scanning through High Guard, there seems to be a lot of editing issues. To Matt, have these been addressed yet? If I purchase both the hard back and pdf versions of High Guard tonight, will they still contain all these problems? Is there a second printing coming out soon with the corrections?
3) I have a TON of 1st addition MgT books from Agent to Zhodani.. I own most (if not all) alien books, most (if not all) expanded career books, the second addition of the "combined" vehicle book, robot, and a few sub sector books. Those of you who've already made the jump to 2e and have had a few months of game play... how easy will it be to use those existing expanded books with the new core rules? If one of my player wants to use "Agent" but play under the new rule system, is it even possible? At this point I'm only interested in getting the Core Rule, High Guard, and CSC. But I simply don't want to restock/replace on all the books and supplements I've barely had a chance to use.
Thanks and... how do the new game mechanics play so far guys?
