I found an entertaining space opera series by Andrew Moriarty: Imperial Deserter, Imperial Smuggler, and Imperial Mercenary. Sort of like a cross between Firefly and the #TravellerRPG.

My inner adolescent was entertained by all the droll one-liners and sarcastic humor.
My inner Traveller geek liked all the Traveller touches: space station directions are "spinward" and "anti-spinward", only allow knives and swords instead of firearms due to law levels, sandcasters, character named Gavin etc.

It has only recently dawned on me that artist Mark Harrison who illustrates space opera story "The Out" in #2000AD is the same Mark Harrison who wrote and drew "The Travellers" in #WhiteDwarf forty years ago.

"Syrena, when you've seen one A788899A planet, you've seen them all." Classic!

Mark also illustrated #ThrudTheBarbarian for White Dwarf. (1/2)

Think I'm ready for tomorrow's game. #Roll20 build completed with everything needed to run Zozer's Far Horizon.

Using the #TravellerRPG 2e sheet which works well enough for #Cepheus. I've added oxygen readouts for the team if they use their suits and a mission time remaining (ie the 96 hours they have before they have to burn for home).

A little nervous about this (it's a long time since I ran a dedicated exploration based game. Perhaps I should watch 2010 tonight for inspiration?

Pondering running Zozer's “Far Horizon" scenario for #Hostile / #Cepheus Universal over the Christmas break. set around 2100, the players will be the crew of a fission-powered long range explorer nuclear thermal rocket who a diverted to intercept an interstellar wanderer. What I like about it is that it's got elements of troupe play and is focused on exploration & understanding rather than combat. The only challenge to find the players and a suitable schedule!

In our Traveller campaign, the Deepnight Revelation has reached the Federated Commonwealth of Worlds, a large polity that spans several sectors. Most of the people here are humans, and it's a strange experience for a lot of the crew to be back amongst 'civilisation' again.

However, they have nothing which could be considered 'money' in this region, so will need to find ways of paying for goods and services.

Something I started doing, but never finished, when I first wrote the integration between Traveller Map and Foundry, was a way to import world data directly into a Foundry journal.

I've revisited this feature, and I'm adding a way to create a journal entry with a click of a button. If only my own Deepnight campaign wasn't so far off the beaten track, this is something I'd make use of a lot.

Currently all a work in progress.
