GURPS Traveller Deck Plans as Source Material


C-Note

Recommended Posts

I was going through my old collection of GURPS Traveller starship sourcebooks and I noticed they included hex-based deckplans in addition to the square-grid ones.

 

Given the lack of existing deckplans for Star Hero, these could be a valuable resource and an excellent companion to Traveller HERO.  Here is a sample Free Trader deckplan:

the new T5 kickstarter had a -package of deckplans incluided that might prove useful

 

theres also a really sweet  book of deckplan geomorphs that is a **FREE** download, it says unofficial, but Marc Miller has approved it being distributed, it just cant be sold.

I was the one who took it to Marc for verification of permission, and can provide such if ever needed. its not my work, I just happen to talk to Marc a fair bit, usually by accident

400 TON DONOSEV- CLASS SURVEY SCOUT

 

Note:  Not my design. Found on web.

The Donosev class is the workhorse of the Imperial Grand Survey. Its task is to continually re-survey star
systems and worlds within Imperial space, updating maps and maintaining navigational beacons.
The heart of the ship is the survey module, which is usually manned by four survey specialists. The spacedock
normally carries three air/rafts, a 50-ton modular cutter with lab module and a spare fuel-skimming module. Survey
operations are carried out using a combination of on-board sensors, long-range probes, and cutter overflights. The
ship is primarily designed to work from orbit, but some lab space is set aside to handle geological or biological
samples. The survey scout is almost never armed, although in dangerous regions the ship can easily mount four
turrets at the cost of four tons of cargo space.

Nice Traveller products at Independence Games.  Do you know if their deckplans are hex-grid or square-grid?  Hex-grid deckplans are very rare and difficult to find.

I'm running some Clement Sector these days - their Long Road to Redemption series. Big fan of the setting, but hadn't considered running via Hero. Hmmm.  Their ships are nifty, but yes, all square grid deck plans (Traveller standard). Clement Sector is a "small ship" setting, with 2 parsec jumps being the max.
