Hi guys,

I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on what happened to the Traveller Hero books put out by Comstar Games in around 2003. I'm currently playing a d20 Traveller game and would like to convince the group to try HERO. From what I can tell, these books were done very well and maintained the "feel" of the original Traveller game, while using the HERO system.

Are these book still available somewhere?

Thanks!
Tim

Tim,

Mongoose happened to Comstar's Traveller Licence. The books aren't available anymore unless you can get lucky and find them on Ebay or find a Board member willing to give up their precious copies.

BTW if you want to take a look at them, I have both Hard and Soft copies of the 4 main books. :D

Thanks for the great information! It's sad to hear that, from what I understand to be a very high quality product, is no longer available.
