Till now I've run mostly One Shots and Mini Campaigns, mostly because my group is more interested in Classic & Mega Traveller and since they relay have to make time to Game won't commit to anything too big, well I did tie them down, I've started Prequels on a High Guard Campaign.
though it's in the OTU, it's far enough removed from the 3rd Imperuim that if I take it out of the OTU no one will notice, taking part in the Rim/Spinward corner of the sector beyond Far Frontiers (the one created by/for FASA back in the day) and the adjoining sub sectors in the neighbouring sectors. the Party will be Key members of the first (non Prototype) of their Governments TL-13 Corvets, their Mission is to Police the Spacelanes around the worlds that lie outside the formal borders of the Union (their Nation) that are inhabited by Union Citizens and to hunt down the Marauders that threaten them and the Union Proper. Thing is under Union Law the first part of their Mission is Illegal as Union Law can not be Imposed beyond the Formal Borders of the Union and the Union Military may not be Employed outside the Union except in derelict response to action taken against the Union (unless invited by a Colony or Ally and the action is ratified by the Assembly beforehand, and the Union has no Allies or Enemies either).
Anyway the Characters.
(List) Capitan Madison Page, age 46. (until this Character was generated the Capitan was going to be an NPC) Madison Page came from an upper middle class family, she joined the Union Navy strait from High School, she Graduated Basic Training with Honours before going on to OCS where she sheered the top position with a Navy Brat, Her first Post was as a 2nd Fleet Commissioned Helmsman on a Covert (Type T Patrol Cruiser) followed by a stint leading Ships Troops on a 1st Fleet Cruiser, she was then transferred to the Bridge department as an Assistant Astronavigator, later she would transfer back to the 2nd Fleet where she joined the Bridge Department where she would earn her first Command at age 30 and make Captain at age 32 at age 40 she would attend Fleet Command Collage and join the List where she was placed in command of the 2nd Fleets 3rd Squadron where she has served ever since, earlier this year she broke orders and lead 2-3 Squadron on a Punitive Raid on a Rouge Colony beyond the Union that was openly supporting a number of Marauder Bands, 2-3 Squadron was able to Crush and scatter the assembled Pirate Fleet and weaken the Oppressive Government opening the way for a successful Revulsion. due to the difficult position she has placed the Union Navy in she has officially bean Reserved from service, but in truth she has given command of a New Destroyer (the Havoc)and bean dispatched beyond the Union to put down Marauder Bands and enforce the Peace the Union Diplomatic Core has established. Capitan Page possesses the Longevity Strain, a Recessive Genetic Sequence that slows the ageing process of those it Expresses in so despite being in her mid 40's she appears to be in her late 20's to early 30's.
Sergeant Henry MacNeal, age 22. the youngest Full Sergeant (and most decorated enlisted men of his age) in the UMC since the battle of Storm Gate that occurred not long after the formation of the Union, Sgt. MacNeal is experienced in both Shipboard and Ground Assault, Badly injured wile extracting a Commando team who's Opp went bad, Disqualified from regular Service he has bean assigned to the Havoc Mission as their Marine Squad Leader. He is conducting an affair with his Dereict Marine Superior on the Havoc Mission who has bean assigned from the Intelligence Branch and lacks Field Command Experience.
More to come, the Doctor and the Chief Engineer are both PC's as well and a 5th player wants to make up a Navy General Hand
