#5536 TRAVELLER: Help a Newbie

[unnamed sender] · 2 June 1993

[TMLers, This is from rec.games.frp.misc. Let's see if we can help this
guy out!  Please make sure you copy Murray on all replies -- James]

Hi People,

I recently picked up a copy of the old Traveller Book in a 2nd
hand shop. I like it.

Problem: no sourcebooks, no modules, no imagination :^)

Seeing as I can't get hold of any adventures, I was hoping anyone
who had some ideas for scenarios etc might mail them to me.

As I intend this to be the RPG game we play when no-one else
shows up, so I'll probably run it with only 2 players.

By the way, has anyone got a simple point based character
generation system for Traveller ?

Oh, and how about deck plans for some of the standard craft?

Feel free to deluge my mailbox with suggestions :^)

Thanks in advance,

Murray

Hi Murray,

I'm the Internet Traveller Mailing List Adminstrator. I forwarded your
posting to rec.games.frp.misc on to the TML. If you want to plug in to
recent discussion on Traveller, please feel free to ask to be added to
TML. If not (the discussion is at all levels and sometimes is over the
head of newer folks, unless they're patient to read and learn), that's
fine too. I hope one or more of us can get you some good answers!

BTW, if you have anonymous ftp, check out ftp.engrg.uwo.ca
(129.100.100.12, dir pub/traveller). Another thing to check out is The
Weekend Warrior, a place in California that sells out-of-print gaming
materials, esp. Traveller. I'm sure they'd have a pile of adventure
modules available. If you're interested I'll get you the address. Deck
Plans? Check out the (out of print) Traders and Gunboats book.

James
