Traveller Companion Update 2024 - Download Now!

[MongooseMatt]

A good start to the weekend for Travellers - we have just uploaded the Traveller Companion Update 2024 PDF. Simply re-download your existing Companion from our website or Drivethru and you will get this new book!

Traveller Companion Update 2024 will not be seen in print until the bottom half of next year but we had the file good and ready to go... so we pass it on to all of you!



Along with the expected 'Update' format and revised art throughout, you will also find a brand new chapter, introducing vector movement to space combat!

So how do I buy the pdf now but get the updated book next year without paying twice?

I am afraid we cannot come up with a good way of doing that, and we gave it quite some thought. The best way to look at it, I think, is that the new book comes out next year... but we have released a free preview for existing owners.

The other option would be to hold onto the PDF until next year which seemed... not particularly great...

Thanks Matt, it looks really good, worth waiting for!

Quick question, is there an errata page for this version where we can post anything we find? (Just came across "Devloped" Worlds as a header on page 16)
Thanks again, lovely update!

Well I won't be getting it until I can get the book and pdf together.

Holy smokes you guys knocked it out of the park with this one! Looks FANTASTIC!

I can see my original order for the companion, but only see some of my download files. The companion and others are missing. Looks like there should be a second page but no obvious way to access it.

Matt - at risk of exposing my technophobe tendencies (again), when looking at my old Companion purchase

it seems that my free pdf was in fact a free ebook. Subsequently all the freebies were PDFs. I'm not sure that was what I intended. Am I entitled to download the PDF and if so how do I do that?

Is that on the "Downloads" page or the "Customer Downloads" page? Only asking because I might have taken a few goes at working out the difference between them lol

Can't say for the Mongoose site, but if you have a DTRPG account and you bought it from there, you can go to your "My Library" page and select the "Updated Only" tab to get to the download link there.
Also, you'll usually get an email with the title of "Product XYZ had been updated" in your favourite inbox.

Nah, that's just when a couple of software developers run off to get married.

Yep spotted that one too.
I started an errata thread in Feedback btw, if you spot any more might be worth adding it there so that Matt has them all in one spot

So what are the vector movement rules like since it could be a year until I can get this?

Detailed and crunchy. I'm going to spoil the book slightly with a diagram or two.

Lol, I've been using a variable turn length according to engagement range for years - nice to see something like it it in print.

Now it's canon.
Or barbette.

Same here, and agree.
