Setting: The Third Imperium: Suggestion

So far, the Third Imperium setting has centered on the Spinward Marches, and with the release of Aslan, Trojan Reach (near the Marches). This would seem to offer some ... difficulty ... if Alien Modules for K'kree, Hiver, and Solomani are planned.

Vargr is already on the schedule, so I don't expect the situation to change for its release (and my guess is that the included sector will be Gvurrdon).

I would suggest the following sector sourcebooks be released:

1. Reavers' Deep. This would provide another point of interface between the Imperium and the Aslan, but more important, it also provides potential for Solomani involvement, when/if the Solomani sourcebook gets released.

2. Amdukan and Antares. A second point of interface between Vargr and Imperium, with the additional Human/Vargr polity of the Julian Protectorate added to the mix. Also provides an anchor for future expansion following the release of K'kree.

3. Hinterworlds. As with Amdukan and Antares, an anchor point. This one would be for Solomani and Hiver development.

Three additional sectors would also be of obvious interest: Vland, Core, and Solomani Rim.

After Vargr, Alien Modules should ideally have at least two sectors included, either adjacent to previously published sectors, or brand new "interface" sectors, providing contact points for further development where empires rub up against each other.

Respectfully submitted for comments/thoughts.

That would be correct:

Finally, we have also included a complete sector to explore, meshing seamlessly with the Spinward Marches – the Gvurrdon sector.
 
AMbitious but ultimately doable...I really liked how the Aslan book returned some of the mystery back into the Aslan. Traveller has long had a tradition of explaining everything. The Aslan left me wanting more. Now, if other races/sectors can be done in the same way...I will in no way regret buying more of the Third Imperium line (as I found the Spinward Marches book rather flat for my tastes).
