Traveller Adventures: Ignoring Current Foolishness
http://travellersandbox.blogspot.com/2016/10/ignoring-current-foolishness.html
Saturday, October 1, 2016. Last year, I put together a fairly long post on assigning rates in the Imperial Navy. And now there is this piece of insanity. To abolish the rating system. I am not much of a fan of this for a variety of reasons. It also does not change my vision of the Imperial Navy's enlisted personnel. Found via other social media. Second, it's an incredibly unpopular personnel decision. This reminds me a bit of the 1970's change. And I wanted to say something about the current mess we're in.

Traveller Adventures: The Veteran's Jacket
http://travellersandbox.blogspot.com/2016/09/the-veterans-jacket.html
Monday, September 26, 2016. In some regions, it is common to see men and women who have served in an armed force or who have traveled for long journeys across the stars to either purchase or obtain a jacket of this type. Cost: Easily twice to three times the base cost for jack or mesh armor. This could be Cr 300 or more. I got this idea from having seen customized MA-1 jackets. Adventure Seed: The Old Jacket in the Window. 2 Amador died on a journey to or through this world. It was sold by the crew o...

Traveller Adventures: Is this Some Vindication?
http://travellersandbox.blogspot.com/2016/12/is-this-some-vindication.html
Wednesday, December 21, 2016. Is this Some Vindication? Came out recently, the U.S. Navy is getting its ratings back. Needless to say, there has been much rejoicing. I feel what I said back in October. Having spent far too much of my life around the U.S. Navy, I project parts of my experiences on to how I see Traveller's Imperial Navy. I think that other people's experiences affect some of how they see their gaming. I read some entries at The Word of Stelios. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Fighting ...

Of A Spaceship for the King. Kind of got me an idea of what books are going to influence how I run this particular set of adventures.
