Completely re-written.

I would figured it would would be than any revised edition. Why not rewrite it, one thing I've picked up from Youtube reviews of your books as I navigate what you have put out as I'm new to Traveller is just how well written your books are. Take for example the glowing review Page121 gave of the Third Imperium book who recommended it was one of the first non-core books a beginner to the game should get if going with Mongoose 2e. Made it my first sector book to get and I agreed with him completely, while the information was great, it was just a well written and interesting to read book as well as useful as a location(s) guide. Sounds like we could hope for the same here, not just helpful in a game context but just interesting and fun to read.

on that note.. really hope there is a Vland/Corridor or Lishun sector book on the horizon from you all. I suppose there are (were?) some issues working with past material from the Megatraveller days but the huge history Vilani is a subject I'd love to see Mongooses writers take a crack at and hit it out of the park.

We have already done Corridor, in the Great Rift box set.

Hope that helps!

 

[Micky]

it does! Thanks! I haven't got that yet, and missed it was a part of that box set, but now have all the more reason to get it!

Morning all. It's Starship Operator's Manual day!
(I'm a bit keen for this one, I'll admit lol)

 

[Feagal]

I too am keen - I need to know how to unclog my space crapper, which requires specialised knowledge from this book.

What are the odds, no one's at the office?

On their way in, but caught up in a space battle around Prometheus?

 

[Sigtrygg]

Must be nice to start work at midday...

I want my book.

Wake up and press some buttons.

 

[MongooseMatt]

Final checks right now, expect it after lunch!

 

[Fulcs]

Everyone take an early lunch, let's make this happen!

 

[Sigtrygg]

Lunch, lunch, what do you mean lunch. You just finished breakfast.

We have to wait for your four course fine dining and bottles of wine.

I will order you an ubereats to have at your desk...

 

[Micky]

whose lunch lol. Ours here on the right coast? Granted I'm enjoying my work day watching tennis on one screen and continuously refreshing the Mongoose forum on another while unanswered emails keep coming in but ... come on... push those buttons!!

 

[Fulcs]

Anyone know how many courses lunch usually runs to at Mongoose? Asking for a friend

 

[Condottiere]

Company trust building exercise.

 

[Micky]

perhaps I'm just projecting my own celebratory proclivities but going to assume there are mass quantities of beer involved... a late running launch party for the book down at the local pub??

 

[Condottiere]

It's been a while since I set foot on the Sceptered Isle, do they still have socialistic traditions, or have the Tories managed to stamp them out?

 

[Feagal]

Final checks right now, expect it after lunch!

Technically this could be until the End of Time Itself...

 

[Sigtrygg]

The Tories are more socialist than the Labour Party these days. High tax, big government, nanny state.

 

[Condottiere]

I feel this would have been a lot more humourous, if the launch announcement had been made at the first of last month.
