MegaTraveller has massive errata issues, and some clarity issues, especially with combat. For those not looking for the standard setting, it's a very playable game. I don't recommend it on the basis of it's setting and rules being so skewed from the rest. Further, the changes in the mechanics also are mirrored with setting destruction. Traveller The New Era (TNE) was fairly well written, second only to Mongoose in clarity, but is not mechanically compatible with other editions. Edit: Marc Miller has announced that there will be a Traveller for Hero CD. Needs Hero System Core Rules (4th, 5th, or 5th revised). Setting information for CT, Mega, TNE, and T4 era play is provided in schematic.

Note that the GT license is ending, and new products will not be available.įor Hero System Fans, the Traveller For Hero books are awesome - but they are permanently out of print, and for 5th ed Hero. GURPS Traveller: Interstellar Wars (GTIW) is set several millennia prior to CT and GT, and is for GURPS 4th ed. Needs a GURPS Core Rulebook, and was written for 3rd Ed. Setting is 20 years after CT, but essentially still CT. GURPS Traveller (GT) is probably the easiest edition for anyone familiar with GURPS. It lacks a few elements from the d20 core, so familiarity with d20 is a must.
Setting is 100 years prior to CT, but still, essentially CT in flavor ship designs compatible with CT Book 5 designs. T20: Traveller's Handbook is very accessible to D20 players, but has major mechanical twists from standard d20, and is based off of the D20 3.0 SRD. Some of the 3rd party supplements are excellent. Traders and Gunboats is fine on paper in PDF, however, the raster-based images make most of the deckplans illegible, and you can't blow them up, either. It does, as a line, suffer from early and significant errata. Central Supply Catalogue and High Guard are well received the rest have lots of people who don't like each of them for various reasons. The supplements, however, are less generally well received. Other robots include armed drones, a police robot, a starship maintenance bot, and several more.Short Answer: Mongoose Core Rules Long answer:Īs far as ease of understanding the rules, the best written core rules are hands-down Mongoose Traveller (MgT). ĭesigned for Mongoose Traveller 2nd Edition, this selection of 11 robots and drones ranges from a basic TL 9 quad-roter drone up to a TL16+ self-aware killing machine that visits battlefields across the Imperial fringe to test itself in combat.
