A Traveller's Wish List
(of products and game aids that do not currently exist):
AN INDEX SPANNING ALL TRAVELLER MATERIAL WRITTEN, seperated into
categories (such as starships, equipment, astrography, character
generation, NPC's, news items, etc.). You could then see at a
glance just what has been developed for the game (what, where,
who). Picking and choosing equipment would become easier, rather
than the current method of searching through book after book and
mag after mag. The main benefit though would be that you could
more easily find everything ever written about a particular
world.
ALL TRAVELLER MATERIAL ON A CD. Linked via hypertext with
several menu interfaces, tables of contents, and indices to allow
easy access.
ILLUSTRATIONS AND DECKPLANS OF ALL STARSHIPS for which there are
stats. Running an adventure with a ship you can't show to the
players has always been rather infeasible for me to do.
ADVENTURES WITH SUPPORT MATERIAL (MAPS, ILLUSTRATIONS, etc.) as
extensive as the James Bond adventure series. To save the ref
the time needed to make floorplans, city and regional maps,
starport layouts, etc.
A COMPREHENSIVE EQUIPMENT CATALOG. Including items from every
tech-level, and including a major section on robot models and
another on cybernetic enhancements. Leave the "how-to design"
rules in FF&S.
A COMPREHENSIVE ASTRONOMICAL ATLAS, with writeups on all worlds
included in the game. Something similar to the planet write-ups
included in the Flaming Eye Campaign Sourcebook. Or at least
covering an area large enough that players aren't like to wander
off the edge of the map (and into undeveloped territory) anytime
soon.
A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF EVERY TRAVELLER ARTICLE EVER WRITTEN. I've
always wondered just how much has been written for this game.
A PHOTO ALBUM INCLUDING ALL ART EVER CREATED FOR TRAVELLER.
Indexed by what is included in each picture (see "index" entry
above).
Any comments?

P.S.: They don't have anything on the above list available do they?
