... <<snip>> ... I think that one of the ways to do this is to come up with several "standard" weapon designs, sort of like what was done with the energy...
I have been converting all of my Striker III files to Mac formats since I got a new laptop (and my Toshiba Laptop's Power supply is dead), and I have been...
... In the end this is the real question. I love the idea of what you are thinking of adding, but as you expand outward, the game becomes less Traveller...
On the other hand, TNE did essentially this with the FF&S rules by indicating which options were considered "canon" and which were variants. I suspect it...
Best Zhodani military background? Hi Everyone, *** What are the best sources for information about the Zhodani military? Their vehicles, small arms, tactics,...
... Force Swords??? I don't think I would be adding those even WITH all of the things that I wanted to add... However, you do have a point. I do think that...
... Again, GURPs Traveller "Alien Races: book1". It has a detailed description of the Zhodani system, their history and technology (it was the biggest offender...
... Yes and no... Because the vehicle design sequences are all being combined into ONE sequence there is a slight shrinkage of the Book3 because of this, and...
Matthew: Best Zhodani military background? Hi Matthew, Thanks. I own GURPs Traveller "Alien Races: Book 1" and it's pretty sparse on hard information about the...
"Planetfall" and Striker III... Hi Matthew, I think we should combine our efforts. After all, we're amicable guys and our games are different in many ways:...
... I forgot that the GURPs book (Ground Forces) also contains a few Zhodani Vehicles, and a bit of Info on their military. Striker II only contains a few...
... Max, Something that I hope to tap into eventually is the Traveller Groups that are responsible for much of the information that goes into the Traveller...
If you ever see an old copy or reprint of the old "Journal of the Travellers Aid societry" #11 it had a good article on Zhodani Military organisation and...
Just wanted to be clear on one thing, Is Striker III going to be published at some point or is it going to remain a fan driven effort? If it is just a fan...
... Marc has said that he is interested in seeing it. If I could get more work done on it I am pretty sure that there could be some arrangement made to get it...
At the risk of sounding negative, I hope that Planetfall and Striker stay as far apart as possible. I don't mean to sound discourteous, but Striker suffers...
Mike: "Planetfall" and Striker III... X-posted from: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/ct-striker/ Hi Mike, Matthew, Dafrca and Gang, First of all, I don't...
... One of the things that I have been trying to do is to go through the rules and figure out easier ways to say what IS said. I think that Frank suffers from...
A Couple of points... I am indeed going down the Gearhead route to an extent. I want to get someone eventually to produce Vehicle creation programs or...
It sounds like you are addressing the main complaint already by trying to separate the preparation work rules from the playing rules. I think Book 1 of S3 ...
... Currently, the way that I am trying to parse out the rules is: Book 1: Basic Rules Book 2: Advanced and Optional Rules Book 3: Troops and Equipment ...
I think this is very important. It should not be too hard to have an easy to use spread sheet, or better yet a java program, that has simple pull down menus...
I resemble the remarks about the older "gearhead" type gamers. I love designing my own ships, tanks, etc. I have little or no interest in games that don't...
... <<snip>> ... I am aware of that, and one of the things that has been suggested is to put the "Non- Canon" materials in a separate booklet. Since I am a...
Your ideas sound good Matthew. I'm looking forward to improvements for Striker. I'm retired Army so things like tanks and APCs have a very deep resonance with...
... I believe that in the next 50 years or so (maybe sooner) that we will have to radically adjust our definition of both human and of what exactly can be...
Got it. What most of the masses would call cyborgs, courtesy of Hollyweird. ;-) I think you're at least partially right. Though most folks over 30 today...
I have been thinking a lot recently about how to get a simple fast play version of Striker to use as an introductory game. It would need to have the same basic...
