It might surprise some to know that DriveThruRPG have declared Mongoose Traveller's gratis Secrets of The Ancients their "Free Product of The Week" this week.
(Correct me, but apart from any kind of plans for a future dead tree form, it's always going to be a free product, right?)
Link to the Zip file on DTRPG
What Do You Get For Your Money?
You get a zip file containing the following:-
Chapter 0 - Secrets of Secrets: the campaign overview
Chapter 01 - Bodysnatchers: the story that starts everything off. One character gets custody of a corpse. Merry Emperor's Day.
Chapter 02 - Homecoming: the closest thing to a comedy segment in this whole miniseries.
Chapter 03 - The Hunt: the characters do what they do best, namely run for their lives from the authorities. And everybody else. What have they done to tick off half the galaxy so?
Chapter 04 - Descent: The characters do some exploring in a hazardous environment, before they get whisked away to an environment which makes this one seem like a holiday at the beach by comparison.
Chapter 05 - Otherworld: Boldly going where no Traveller character has gone before ...
Chapter 06 - The Secret of The Ancients: Grandfather's Powerpoint presentation. Well, not quite ... but I bet everyone who remembers the first incarnation of this story would have felt a shiver of trepidation ...
Chapter 07 - With a spoiler in the title, the bit where the characters wake up from their nice little nap, just in time for Hell.
Chapter 08 - In The Emperor's Name, where the characters face more problems before them than behind them.
Chapter 09 - The Dark Gate, part 1 of the 2 part mini series finale.
Chapter 10 - The finale, another one with the spoiler in the title. It all comes together, and it all falls apart. And then things get weird.
If you missed a part, however unlikely, then just click on the link above, head on over to DriveThruRPG, look at the zip file and think "Why am I doing this? They're available on the Mongoose site ..."
