Middenface, please please PLEASE do me the favor of recasting one of those to fit USLetter/ISO-A4; I can always use covers for Freelance Traveller, and either of those would be a stunner...

OK then... should be ok, on its way...

Received; thanks - I'm blown away; that's a GREAT pic!


When is someone going to get around to creating the Jesse DeGraff Award for Graphical Excellence in Traveller? My nominee list keeps getting longer...

Or you could read something I submitted a few months back to S&P, but which I doubt they'd publish now they've rebooted Annic Nova instead (so I've sent mine up to Docstoc and I'll have to think of something else for S&P when it returns next year):-

:roll: Oh, it won't link properly. Copypasta the URL.

Just had a look at this, alex, great stuff! :D :D

The underside fin, its a little different to the published version... somehow I'd screwed up the model, so its been tweaked somewhat..

Sounds like a plan.....
 
Oh lord... This was published -- on old-style paper (dead tree!) -- years before many gamers were born. :? It's not perfect, nor brilliant by today's standards. Okay. Get over it.

You don't like the 'brute force' coercion -- oh, you REALLY want to take off your vacc suits, DON'T you? -- okay. Change the situation. When I re-ran Annic Nova, I spliced it with 'Event Horizon'. My players were freaking because they were not expecting me to go all Lovecraft on them.

A printed scenario - on paper or via the web - should just be a starting point for a GM. Not a set of shackles. It's taken me a long time to grasp that, and I've been a GM a very long time.
 
If you want to mix it up a bit - given the different power plant - maybe give old 400001900024 a variant drive, as well - the 'warp' drive out of the rulebook, maybe?

Feels a bit Stargate Universe, but it'd certainly get player's attention if it jumped with them on board...

Good idea on the warp drive. That could explain a lot.
 
Thought it might make it a bit easier to do something useful with the ship, too; waiting 3+ weeks to charge up for a jump-2 isn't going to win you any friends, but waiting that time before going to warp-2 for a fortnight or more is much more economically viable if you can dredge up some long-range passengers
