shadowcat1313 Posted April 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 I really doubt there will be printed copies, but you can always ask Marc Miller about it Tasha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zslane Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 The 5th ed. version of Traveller Hero was at one time available as a pair of softcover books. Looks like a new Lulu project may be in my future... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StGrimblefig Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 There appears to be quite a bit more on this disc than just the 2 book set that I remembered from before. Not that I am complaining. I am happy to see this return to the light of day. Good show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisGoncey Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 I have already ordered the CD, but a question: It looks like it contains the original 5e books, and it has a conversion document for 6e play -- is this correct?

shadowcat1313 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 yes it does have a 6E conversion document. there was quite a bit of material besides the 2 printed books published, its just only the first 2 saw print Tasha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zslane Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Okay, so this is just the older 5th ed. material re-released on CD-ROM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowcat1313 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 correct.. theres some additional 5E material, but its mostly working notes and draft stuff that never saw publication in any form I gave Marc everything we had that I know of, Don Mckinney and Andy Staples also did fixed a bunch of templates and fixed the blank references to various packages from the Star Hero books. I wish I could be more specific, but I was left out of the loop on a lot of it. I submitted all the material I had complete or not, I made sure Marc had all the Hero Designer files[hdp, hdc, hdt] wrote a new intro and dedication. and that was about it Tasha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasha Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 I bought my copy. I had a lot of it anyways, but I wanted a complete set. Also, I wanted Marc Miller to see that the Hero Licence had very interested fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_ns Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Me too. Bought and paid for. Just wish there was a download link instead of just waiting for the disk to arrive. And I suspect I'll be pursuing some POD options as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowcat1313 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 you can always ask Marc about downloads and other things on the website, he ususally answers quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasha Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Ooooh, I got my cd the other day. It's nifty. Also the Emperor sent me some gifties! Weeee!

StGrimblefig Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Say, Shadowcat, by any chance, do you have (or can get, or direct me to who I should contact) the deck plan for the upper deck of the LSP Modular Starship? Page 10 of TH GAS7 has the deck plan of the Armed Free Trader (from TH GAS8), rather than the expected upper deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Page 10 of TH GAS7 has the deck plan of the Armed Free Trader (from TH GAS8), rather than the expected upper deck. this is strange... my copy of GAS-7 looks like the right one. I will get with Marc and figure out how to fix this, how we ended up with 2 different versions with different page 10s is beyond me but the simplest fix is probably just to send it out via e-mail or dropbox or whatever instead of redoing the whole CD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowcat1313 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 the green cover version with the Hero data has the wrong page 10, the red cover regular traveller version has the correct page 10, how this happened is beyond me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowcat1313 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 my thought on this is just to copy the correct page out of my archive copy, and just put it where folks who bought the CD can download it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't asking you to re-do the CD. This is just an errata. TheQuestionMan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowcat1313 Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 if we just give out the one page, I could add it to the downloads section here on the site I think Tasha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
