I just returned to work on Monday after a two week training session on cost
estimating, which is neither here nor there, except for the fact that I don't
usually find these classes to be too strenuous. As a result, I tucked some
Traveller stuff into my briefcase when I went, and had time to work on it
a bit.
Now, the unusual part of it is that I didn't take MegaTraveller and I didn't
do vehicles: I took my copy of Starter Traveller, and I started trying to
detail a randomly geenrated subsector that I came up with when I bought that
set of rules in 1990.
What I would like to do is upload the information in batches, and ask for
everyone's opinions on how to go about squeezing some interesting adventures
out of this particular subsector. Sort of an exercise in GMing.
With any luck, I'll have the basic rolled planet data typed in sometime today
or tomorrow. I should mention that I bought the copy of Starter Traveller
and rolled the subsector while I was at the Viola da Gamba Society of
America's annual convention, so the planet names have a rather odd topical
consistency.
Coming soon: The Gamba Subsector--An Imperial Backwater.
