Traveller - Combat miniature rules

Banded Mongoose
Well it should have been in Mercenary but some rules on miniature played large scale battles would be really interesting. Something along the lines of Striker but not as large and unwieldy. I stopped playing the original Traveller becuase there just was so many rules and books that it just got really confusing with separate rules all over the place. Mongoose at least seem to be trying to keep all the rules together in one place that are relevant to a certain area which is nice to see.

Otherwise I would like to see an adventure along the lines of Chamax Plague/Starship Troopers and a Safari/Survival one as they were my favourite Classic adventures - so far the adventures released have been quite boring it has to be said.

I have to say though the the Fighting Ships supplement has to be by far the weakest book I have seen - the ships look terrible, really unimaginative and unpleasant to look at and all the plans - whats the point its not as if we will ever use plans that small, of for ships that large that will never be able to be used for miniature interior battles. A book of great pictures and associated stats plus history of the ships would have been far better.

But generally I like the resurrection of Traveller very much and its got me back into it again after being unimpressed with other overly complex forays into the Traveller universe such as D20 and Gurps. Thanks for that.

Traveller has an OGL. Might try your hand at an adventure via PDF and make a little $ while you entertain your own group.
