I recently downloaded and printed the Scout's Honor solo adventure from Freelance Traveller site. Problem is it uses something called the Lone Wolf rules (a...
page 24 of the Scouts Honor rules that you have is where the lone wolf rules are reprinted. but you can also use ASL rules. Bobby On Wed, Mar 12, 2008 at 9:41...
I was reading about the recent fuss over the USAF choice of tanker aircraft, when I came across an interesting fact: these aircraft are intended to be...
As I understand drop tank usage, they are left behind at the jump point and retrieved to be used again; they don't go with the ship to its destination. If they...
Interesting I recall that someone made a hotrod out of a P-40 drop tank after WW2. I would guess that it would be possible to make a 50 ton medical module,...
Hey everyone, I just bought the first two Traveller reprints from FFF. I have never played before but I am certainly going to soon after reading through the...
... Welcome to Traveller! ... Well, here is one interpretation of that paragraph. PC's (but not NPC's) have an expertise of 0 for all weapons *in this book*...
... Welcome and congrats on your luck with finding the White Dwarfs. ... Well Ned... This is the wonderful thing about Traveller. There is an Official ...
Hi Ned, and welcome. You will find when you ask a question here you will get a different answer from everyone. That's not necessarily a bad thing, CT is quite ...
... My version... just one among many... Book 1 says most PCs get skill level 0 in all weapons (skill level 1/2 if you're using the 1977 books). This is...
http://www.iconvention.org/index.html Our team at Fouruglymonsters.com and the FUM community has decided to run another iCon an internet gaming convention on...
The dates are actually March 28, 29 & 30. In addition to the extra day this year, we also have a prep week (starting today) so we can tune our Virtual Table...
Hello Everyone, Does anyone know where I can get a copy (electronic or hard copy) of Trillion Credit Squadron? I have looked around eBay Australia and ...
Hey Brett, $35US will get you the CD rom: http://www.farfuture.net/cdroms.html which includes this, IIRC: B00 Understanding Traveller. Freely distributed...
Hi All I'm currently reading LBB1, specifically Combat and was wondering if someone could clarify a rule for me? It concerns the following (which is a direct...
Following on from my last enquiry, I have another question, this time about weight. LBB1 says that a character can carry a load equal to his strength stat in...
... He wouldn't use his Rifle skill level as the defensive DM; he'd use his Club skill level - since he's using his rifle as a club; probably not too good for...
... Again, another referee question. In my game, the penalties start when you exceed your STR stat and you can't go any higher than 2xSTR. However, ref trumps...
... That's how I do it. If you're using your firearm in a melee, then I treat it as if it were a similar sort of melee weapon for skill purposes: a rifle...
... Yes, Ref trumps rules. :) To me, rules in the book are suggestions, not *rules*. I treat them as such and decide each case individually. It's important to...
... Good questions, btw! Keep 'em coming. Although, I bet you can figure out by now what I'm going to answer. :) One reason I love CT is that it is very...
In Traveller, most weapons training is assumed to be supplied by the military (Navy, Marines, Army, Scouts to a degree). Military training tends to also cover...
Again the rules are based on 'real life'. Traveller in the '80's based itself on hard science as it was understood then. Science has of course moved on, but...
The weight rule always seemed a bit odd to me, considering the fact that 'the average soldier' (presumably Str 7) routinely carries five or more times his Str...
Thanks to all for your help and thoughts. It's much appreciated. It may sound odd, but I never really considered making my own variation of the rule, I was...
The problem with establishing yourself as a ref who adheres to the rules is that you will encounter a player - or more than one - who will have studied the...
