Well, something will eventually happen anyway.  CAT is usually a fairly
low priority with us, expecially with PBEM chaos in the works.



:By the way, what is this Traveller the New Era? I have heard mention that it
:is a new version of traveller coming out (soon?). Do you know how different
:it is going to be from MT and when it is likely to be coming out (in the
:states at least, I presume it will take another few months to reach the UK!)

:Look forward to hearing from you, Happy Christmas!

Happy Christmas (or midwinter [midsummer for some of us] festival of
choice) to you and everyone else on the list, too.

I copied the mailing list because this is a truly interesting question,
with lots of long, emotional, and reasonable, answers.  In a nutshell,
TNE is the product that GDW will introduce (real soon now?) to replace
Traveller and MegaTraveller.  I personally don't know if they also plan
to replace 2300 with it (or even if 2300 is still a product).

Might be good, might be bad.  Depends on who you talk to, and what they
liked or didn't like about T and MT.

But, it is coming from GDW.  And, while they have been roundly abused in
our forum, they really have produced products of reasonable quality for
many years now, so it shouldn't be too bad.

Anyone else have Cr 0.02 they'd like to throw in?  (please no flames
this time - it's just an information inquiry).
