    Traveller Hero... What's Next?

    For those who have purchased Traveller Hero, now that you've seen it, I'm interested in what else you'd like to see in the line. As indicated in the TH books, we are converting the GAS, Robots, and other properties as well as Grand Fleet and Gadgets/Gear.

    I'd like to hear want lists/wish lists of what else you would like to see in the Traveller Hero line. What books would make your Traveller Hero games more enjoyable?

    Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next?

    Speaking for myself, and 30+ yr Traveller player/GM I like the New Era
    of 1248 by Comstar Games. Now my own campaigns over the years
    have ranged from 1109 till 1125 eras.

    Now I think that 1248, is well set in a great bit of history and a perect
    starting up place for the Traveller game.

    Ok so what would I like to see next, well what about a Startup
    starting point? Have someone create a single system, and work it
    up completely. Define a single system with all it's orbits and what
    is found there. Further develope the main home world in that system
    that the players can come from. Design a complete culture with
    it's history, then develope the world and starport along with other
    details of why this world and system are unique. Maybe have both
    Humans and Dryone in the system together as the two races, and
    explian why and how they made it back into the stars after the
    great collapse and etc.

    Spin a couple of different subplots as well going on and give clues
    to some others that are left for GMs to add to and expand on if they
    wish to. Also maybe give a small star maps and give some basic
    information on the neighboring systems. Maybe define some plots
    that might be happening in each of the other systems as well and
    have the players be on a exploration mission and etc.

    Also I would like to see a world that has been cut off from star travel, that has
    developed a society like Judge Dread!...

    Hmmm maybe a new Judge Dread Hero based Genre!!!

    Ever since I bought the Firefly DVDs, I've been itching to do something like that.

    After Post-Apocalyptic Hero came out, another thing I'd like to build is one or more world-locked PAH settings in The New Era.

    I had honestly thought about expanding some of that information in the two current books, but I didn't want to essentially re-write the Hero System The Ultimate Vehicle books. But it's definitely worth a look, since Traveller Contragrav Thrusters and other Traveller-specific technologies could be expanded on for size, cost, etc.

    Eodin,

    A APH setting locked in a TH setting would be awesome....a Amber or
    Red Zone maybe. There are many different plot lines that you could
    define and run in those settings!

    the first thing that comes to mind from TNE is the world of Promise, where several virus infected mainframes are at war with each and using human pawns to conduct the war.

    Re: Traveller Hero... What's Next?

    I'd like info on the Nobility... I'm thinking of getting GURPS Traveller Nobles, but I'm keen on not having to convert it.

    Also... Where are the Racial Prefabs/Templates for Traveller? If they aren't available, and I just do them myself, are they postable? I'd rather not cause trouble for Com Star and Eodin, etc...

    I think that adventures and details about sectors that have not been given before would be the coolest.

    I do not know if you are confined by the license to any one sector or another, but there are quite a few (Antares comes to mind) that have never really been done.

    A grand adventure in the Marches or even a short campaign like Psionic Knights from the DGP book would be neat also

    I'm sorry. I was in a hurry when I posted that. I meant... where are the prefabs for Hero Designer? I have both PDF's... I just want more Hero Designer support.

    Even if I have to create it myself and make it available (if I'm allowed). I don't know the details of your agreement, and if posting the .hdt's and .hdp's would cause trouble, I won't do it.

    When you purchase the PDFs of Traveller Hero, all the HD files are bundled with it. So unless you hear different from Steve L or Polaris, please don't post the HD files.
