Notes to GDW on Genie

By Joe Heck ·

TML message #3125From bundle 257

Hello Rob,
This note is kind of in response to the TML and the GENIE postings you've
been placing. I print out all the TML for a local group of MT fans here
in Columbia, so this is actually coming from about 5 different people. Would
you mind passing this along to Genie and the GDW staff?

Our biggest worry about the "new" version of MT is that the old data we
have will become - again - obsolete, and we'll spend forever trying to learn
a new gaming "system". We found long ago how 'broke' the old rules were, and
just passed over them as best we could, but another revision in rules will
slow things down again. We're also very worried that the new product will have
quite a few faults in it. MT wasn't put together well, and discovering HOW
to do things was often more difficult than just faking it outright - which
ended up causing numerous disagreements among our gaming group.

I guess what it boils down to is this: Will we be able to utilize the old
material from 'classic traveller' and the stuff that we've developed out of
MT in this new version? Or is it a completely new investment in a new game
with an old theme?

Thanks,
          Joe Heck

Thanks Rob
