Topic: Traveller game interest? Subject: Whoa!
So are we only using Book 0 for making characters? because it only has army or navy for career choices...
And are we just rolling up a random place that is our birth world/homeworld?

I'll likely be online, but I don't know if I will be able to dedicate any attention to playing. We'll have to see how the rest of my evening plays out...
I would like to play though

I only have the Classic Traveller intro book, and I can't seem to download the one you posted. Apparently I had a 4shared account at one time and have forgot the password and haven't received the email to reset...
Edit: I have it now

Topic: Traveller game interest? Subject: character death.
Depending on what rule set you use... yes you can die in character creation. However in the one rule set instead of dying you are severely injured in the second year of the term and do not get skills or any other benefit from that term, and you are kicked out of the service you are in. (That is the one I normally use)
And by the book all skills are random... The player gets to pick which chart to roll the skill on, but it is based on the roll as to what you get...
But were you thinking high(5+), mid(3-4), low(1-2) level (How many terms served before play)
Only the main rule book? or can we use the expanded books.
(When using the expanded books you generally get more skills which is better all round from my experience)
I would like to play a marine (preferably using mercenary book)

Topic: Traveller game interest? Subject: ...
Whenever I GMed I tended to make it a planetside based game rather than a ship based game.... More like a modern/futuristic D&D I guess, with ships just to get from place to place... But that is just me. And the people I played with didn't understand the concept of space combat.
Just waiting for my dropbox to sync so I can post the links.

I'll look through the Q&A a little more. I didn't notice the game info
As for what to base a game on... what is any RP game based on
I've always been a fan of exploring the fringe but any adventure works.

It looks like the 5ed version of the original battlesystem But it will be nice to see a d20 version of the rules.

I seen your post for a pilot, and am interested, but I don't know the rules, and don't know if I want to go to the trouble of learning a new gaming system...
Is the serenity system D20?
As for the third imperium... I can see if I can find more info... but most of the game is based on random generation of a sub sector.
I've done some looking and I cannot find the book about the imperium... so here are some links to random info that might fill in the blanks.

Topic: Traveller game interest? Subject: GMing
Okay... since my other (Duchy) game is currently on hiatus, and I really want to play a Traveller game I will be the GM (Unless there are other takers?)
So for those who have looked over the basic book and are interested in playing what are your thoughts?

Topic: The Duchy of Richmond Q&A Subject: On Hiatus
Until Karmina is back, and Bodkin's youngest is well, I'll put the game on hiatus. (though we're there already )
In the mean time I'm going to start a Traveller game for those interested.
Here is the link to the recruitment thread for all interested.
P.S. Bodkin I have been keeping you and your family in my prayers, and hope all is going well.

If you would like I can post links to the expanded books that I have....
As for setting, most of it is made as you go. Though there are some premade maps and such... Whenever I've played I've just made up a number of worlds before play and put them on the sector map as they are found.

One of the things that I like about Traveller is that it is a game that can run settings from Stone-aged, right up to Ultra High Tech. The norm being somewhat more than modern aged technology... With FTL spaceships being available.
