Hi Folks,
There are two Core books left to release once High Guard is released.
Vehicle Handbook
Traveller Companion
Now without my bias, what would you like to see next, here are the basic plans for what they'd bring.
Vehicle Handbook - Book 4 - Lots of new vehicles, rules on building Vehicles, Vehicles working in the CT (not sure which CT yet), plus at some future point a Vehicle Builder, plus new equipment (weapons/armour for a Vehicle)
Traveller Companion - Book 5 - Lots of new information, some new careers, training, new NPC's, Vehicle Damage, new Characteristics (Morale, Sanity etc) and Damage Hit Locations and Weapon fumbles etc.
As you can tell both will require ruleset work, which I will do once we all feel High Guard is well supported, but if the book was available before that point would you pick it up and use some of the features? For example, I use Traveller Companion already, I have various tables in place from it, and want that Hit Location doing.
I'm interested as being honest here, I love doing the conversions and they're quicker to do than ruleset coding. I also would like to be able to draw a line under the Core books and then I can work more on ruleset and newer books as they continue, and haven't Mongoose been very busy these last 3 months?
Behind the Claw (completed with SmiteWorks)
Sword Worlds
Skandersvik
Aliens Vol 1 (Almost complete, then off for Internal Testing before heading off to Smiteworks)
Aliens Vol 2 (out on the 14th of December 2020)
And of course, the more I can clear off the backlogs means the more time I have for 2300AD....
Cheers,
MBM
