Evening Folks,
Now that v1.2.1 has been sent I've first got good news.
@GregRex is now working with us (say hello), he's a solid chap who's new(ish) to Traveller so is learning the ropes (which is ace as at times, he really reads the rules rather than pretends to 'know them'), but recently on FGC he hosted symposiums and intro games for people.
His primary role is to work with me on the tickets that make up the releases, discussing with me the details and at times going through the forum to pull extra information. This will save me a bit of time each week trying to wrestle with how X should work. I've made mistakes and at times short-cuts, and after the success of WOIN updates, I've copied that format here.
He's also going to keep an eye on the forums so that I can focus on the Mongoose Traveller Backlog, but also on the ruleset.
So this is what's currently planned to go into v1.2.2.
FG Update to Sidebar buttons. The sidebar buttons will have been changed to match the new system that FGC/FGU use
FG CoreRPG updates. There are other updates that are applied, none should break anything...these are around characters and dice rolls
Spaceship Battles. Just like we have 'Battles' for NPC's/Aliens/Creatures etc (CCT = Character Combat Tracker) , there's a button on the Battles List 'Spacecraft Battles'. You will be able to drag NPC ships onto this like you would any NPC onto the CCT, and then you can 'send' them to the SCT as you would to the CCT.
We are open to the usual ideas so post away but this version has to be released with CoreRPG updates in 2 weeks.
Now if we find the time, I'll try and fit in these extras:
Spaceship CT. If High Guard is in use, then the Shields Damage score is shown on the main sheet, with full shield/energyshield details in the 'Armour' section
NPC Optional Characteristics. Add the optional characteristics to Humanoid NPC's (to match the PCs)
I thought I'd also let you know that in this past week I've sent Aliens of Charted Space Vol 1 off to be 'tested'. There are a number of conversions being tested so hopefully some will arrive soon.
Cheers MBM (and the rest of the team).
