First and foremost: congrats @MadBeardMan for your progress and thanks for all the work you're investing. I believe this should be said more often :)
I am curently setting together a campaign and have already created 3 PCs. Two I created on my laptop, one I created with a friend on his, while being logged into my campaign. He could roll his base stats of course, but he could not add any skills, as there weren't any on his client even though he was connected to my campaign. I completed his char on my laptop as GM then. He just did the rolling. Does he need to purchase the whole module to play, add items to his char etc. or is there another way.
Background is, we are part of a D&D 5E campaign and there you only need the D&D ruleset as a dungeonmaster. As a player you don't need the module.
I also found another problem: I loaded one of the deckplans (Scout Type S) and tried to let my chars fight some NPCs I created. But sadly, when I add my chars to the CT, their stats are zero. Their actual stats are not reflected and therefore they die in the first round as soon as they're hit and the program checks their stats ... what am I doing wrong?
Also, we created a K'Kree char - don't laugh now - because my wife wants to play a unicorn :D:D:D and a K'Kree mutant seems to be the best choice. Also my campaign will start in the gateway sector and border skirmishes with one or more K'Kree clans might occur (depending on where my Travellers will head to).
According to the core rules, you roll 3d6 for strength with this one. The char got 17 strength (wow) and I entered this. Sadly, the DM did stay on zero. The +2 I awaited did not show up. I had to go back as far as STR 14 to get the DM. Hmmm ... not the result I liked. Am I doing something wrong or is this a real bug? I mean, this could always happen even to a human getting battle augmentations or so...
All in all I am happy with Traveller on FG and am looking forward to further updates!
I will happily give y'all all my story data of my campaign as soon as it has been played (don't wanna spoil it for any of my players if they happen to stumble upon this forum) :)
Travel on, guys!
