will they do a bestiary for traveller

will they be a traveller bestiary

Um with so many worlds within the Imperium wouldn't that be a something of a daunting task or would this concentrate more on: a)Creatures that have been gene-gineered for use on other worlds b)A more definitive creature generation method than outlined in the core rulebook?

Why does it need to be linked to the Third Imperium setting? Make it generic and it'll be more useful to more people. They could just provide a number of pre-designed creatures with a general environment type for each (if that). A large pouncer on one world is gonna be pretty much the same as a large pouncer on another world; all that needs to change is the description.
 
Especially if it includes how to create your own.

More than just stats, kind of a way to describe and make it an interesting creature instead of just one more 'bug' to shoot.

So if it's difficult, don't even try?

Personally, I would hope a bestiary would be Imperium-independent, as I really don't care for that setting, but love Traveller rules.

thats not really the point I was trying to make. I agree that a more generic one would be good though I think a more detailed critter creation system woul dbe more useful. Why does creature a always wash its food before painfully disemboweling it? Lol
 
The Creatures of Distant World Compendium has about 8 different varieties of spiders (from the tiny poisonous variety to mansize hunters), five different sizes of ants (from swarms of tiny ants to huge size that are size of small space craft), creatures that live in jump space, heavily armored scorpions, tenticled rats, riding wolves, and more.
