I went to my local gaming store early last week to pick up MoTrav but they had sold out faster than expected. The store had already re-ordered so I had them place a hold on a copy for me, and was I surprised when I got a phone call just two days later that the order had come in. From my experience most RPG companies don't deliver that fast, happy me, I like what Mongoose has done with Traveller but I can't wait for Mercenary, that was my favorite book in CT.

Last we heard Spinward Marches was being reviewed. Is there any chance it will ship this month?
I am running my 1st session on June 1st and it would wonderfull to have Spinward to help me explain things... I've never run Traveller. :? I'm going to start them slow after character creation by running "The Rescue" on their way to buy their ship, then.... ummm... I hope Spinward is out by then... or things will get harder on me.

Xoph, if you like pre-built adventures strung together into a campaign with all supporting info, the old CT book "The Traveller Adventure" is worth looking at/for.
It has ship external views and deckplans as well as number of planet-/space-based adventures, subsector maps, and Spinward Marches world descriptions that can all be used as a campaign or separately on their own. It's available, though, only through eBay or occasionally an online store.
I really hope Mongoose has some campaign-sized adventure-publishing ideas of their own. I'd love to see (and buy!) some.
Heh. I kinda feel sorry for Mongoose..the plethora of material for previous versions of Traveller shows fans what is possible and has raised high expectations in some of Mongoose's customer base.

I hope I can find that somewhere... not sure if my local shops will have anything that old.
There's one on eBay right now (I'm not the one selling it). I usually search for Traveller stuff using the keyword "traveller" and changing the category to "Toys and Hobbies".
I've noticed Mongoose's Traveller corebook is available there for less than I paid retail. *grrr*
Oh, well. I tried to support my local RPG store but they're still shutting down. Looks like I need to find another source (like Mongoose :wink: ).
sirpedro's suggestion of looking at DriveThru's site is a good one; I've bought some Traveller-related material from them myself.
