Traveller is my third RPG, after dnd 5e and Shadowrun 6e. I enjoyed both those other games, but reading 5e setting books always leave me with the impression that it was superficial content and placeholders, not providing any meat about the setting, and Shadowrun books, while very enjoyable to read, dilute most of the information in the narration.
And then, I read the "History of the Third Imperium" chapter in the Third Imperium book (MgT2). Wow! It was just perfect. Dense, but straight to the point ; after reading it, I feel like I understand perfectly what the Third Imperium is, how we got there, why everything "behind the claw" is so often the focus, what's the place of the Solomanis in the imperium, etc. I'm now excited to jump into the subsectors chapters and the other sector books.
Awesome job, thanks a lot.
