Seriously, look fo...Best edition is the free one!<br /><br /><br />Seriously, look for either the 'classic' Traveller books OR the Mongoose stuff which is out now. +Erin, correct me if I'm wrong, but this map doesn't apply (or is of less use) for the MegaTraveller and the Traveller: 2300 AD settings.<br /><br /><br />There were some old GURPS books for this same setting with a divergent timeline. And there was a short-lived (sniff) HERO system release for the setting as well.Alexander Osiasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6649591714373684167.post-13583787168064209262013-12-17T19:24:29.989-05:002013-12-17T19:24:29.989-05:00And not just any office on Fosey, but the regional...And not just any office on Fosey, but the regional records office.<br /><br />And records for spooks are like catnip.<br /><br />Meanwhile Rylanor is the Intelligence Corps HQ for the Marches if memory servesThe Jacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6649591714373684167.post-36269158967624775932013-12-17T18:51:05.077-05:002013-12-17T18:51:05.077-05:00That's a bit like asking "Best version of...That's a bit like asking "Best version of D&D": guaranteed to garner a lot of arguments. I personally like the Mongoose version despite all the typographical errors, as it seems to blend the 1970s flavor of the original version with modern sensibilities (computers no longer weigh tons, cybernetics are a thing and planetary internets exist). <br /><br /><br />But the neat thing about Trav is that whichever rule set you use, you have 30+ years of development to draw upon. :)Erin Palettehttp://lurkingrhythmically.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6649591714373684167.post-5325337634048403832013-12-17T18:17:37.638-05:002013-12-17T18:17:37.638-05:00I've never read Traveller, let alone played it...I've never read Traveller, let alone played it.
