Mongoose's Planned Books

If Beltstrike will include additional material on Belter characters, rules for
belt mining, informations on Belter equipment and thelike (like the "old
Beltstrike", only better and more ...
), I will be very much looking for-
ward to it.
Well, and a new Merchant Princes would also be fine ...

One other thing if someone could... a redone Robots book !
Might be interesting to see the various takes on Robotics as well
Hiver, Kk'ree, Vagr, Solomani, as well as the Zho's and Imps.
Take care

Beltstrike I'll be buying for sure, as well as Mercenary and High Guard. Scouts I'll buy if the worldgen system in it would be good enough (without the bugs and gross inaccuracies of CT's LBB6 Scouts). About Merchant Prince I don't know, as I haven't seen the trading system for the core book yet - it might be sufficient to my needs.
I probably won't buy Traders and Gunboats or Fighting Ships - I like to build my own universes and design my own ships and deckplans.

I am one for an updated robots book, might want to throw in some more advance enhancements for those poor post war cyborgs too. :wink:
I love using robots.
This one time the characters were hired to hijack a liner and had the tools of the trade smuggled on board for them. They had been briefed that there were Imperial Agents on board - I described the other passengers and once they ruled out a family of three (mum, dad, five-year old kid) my agents were in place. And the kid was then changed to be a specially constructed robot.
When retrieving the weapons the little girl came round the corner and asked them what they were doing. So the big ex-marine walks up to 'her' and tells the rest of the group - 'Don't worry, I can deal with the kid...' (not in a psychotic way either - just prevent her from rasing an alarm too early).
Famous (almost) last words...
Good times...

Good news indeed. With the above and High Guard, we'll hopefully be able to get real naval campaigns up and running.
OK, sorry, but I vote no robots. They are useless in a sophont-driven game except as something that shoots or is shot at.
I think it would be interesting if a new major race were introduced, one that maybe has a higher tech level than the Imperium or the Hivers. One that's not connected to the Ancient Droyne. The new Mongoose system would be great for this. Imagine, some thing NEW in the traveller universe.
Put a Dyson sphere in the unmapped Far Frontiers or Spinward Marches which out of they could erupt . Or a gate from another pocket Universe. (I know, something simular was done in the Grandpappy's adventure, KNIGHTFALL.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords... or rather, a high quality robot supplement.
I fall somewhere between no robots and a true AI robot. I do not want robots that replace the sapient life forms. But the idea of robots as support roles to the PCs is not a bad idea.BenTOGS said:
So with that in mind, I say yes to the Robot book, but will use it in a limited way.

Oh yes to robots. They are mostly just colour, but a sci-fi game without robots?!?
When can we expect the first adventures to come out....? I know that 760 Patrons is on the cards, but I've been especially excited by the talk of Paizo style adventure paths and and hints of being inspired a little by Mass Effect.

Screaming makes noise, noise makes publicity, publicity makes sales, sales makes new products... You see where this is going?
Besides us purists are dying... of old age, and excessive screaming.

Amazon has officially changed the release date of the TMB to May 21, 2008. So those of us that ordered Traveller from Amazon should be receiving it shortly.
