Traveller as a Wargame

[Dagon]

Concentrating on the military conficts of (and indeed within) the Imperium.

Done in 6mm scale with a supporting range of models. 6mm is affordable and allows for large scale battles to be fought.

Oppotunity to do a master rulebook and then numerous campaign supplements E.G. 5th Frontier War.

The rules could then be mated with a starship combat game (perhaps even ACTA: Traveller) allowing players to fight their way through enemy fleets, make planetfall and then conduct a ground campaign.

BTW, I am well aware of Striker. Striker is skirmish game based on tactics, I'm talking about doing a wargame based on strategy.

Regards - Dagon

P.S. am very much enjoying your TL5 naval game Age of Dreadnoughts.

Dude, I am old enough to have bought a copy of the original Dirtside rules (and Stargrunt for that matter) when they first came out in print :wink:
