The revised edition of the core rule book on pages 2 & 4 states:
As it has been noted that the rules for equipment, ship, and vehicle design will not be added to this book, these paragraphs should be changed as they are misleading. It should state explicitly that other books will be needed to get started in anything other than a 3rd Imperium campaign.
The revised edition of the core rule book on pages 2 & 4 states:
Traveller is a science fiction roleplaying game of the far future. A multitude of universes await players and you will find Traveller is capable of handling almost any kind of science fiction setting, from highly intricate cyberpunk worlds to campaigns spanning entire galaxies where mighty empires clash and suns explode.
If you have a favourite science fiction film or TV show, Traveller will be able to replicate it for you, bringing your best-loved futuristic moments to your tabletop.
Throughout this book, mention is made of other titles available in the Traveller series. Each of these books concentrates on a particular aspect of Traveller, allowing you to expand your game into new realms of play. However, none are vital or necessary to the game and are presented only for your continued enjoyment – you can explore a huge amount of the galaxy with this Core Rulebook alone!
