Impressive as the Type S and merchant ships were, the small craft seem a lot more practical for most tabletops, whether you're actually playing Traveller with them or not. Folks playing Stargrave, Xenos Rampant, 5 Light Years From Home and other skirmish scifi games can always use some big-but-not-huge parked spacecraft terrain, and of course they're generic enough to work in many other sf rpgs too.

It almost feels like the adventure is more about the context and consequences of what comes after rather than the adventure itself. With only two hijackers clearly not equipped to handle a rescue team, it feels like the players aren't supposed to be threatened, like the guy with the shotgun is supposed to make a last stand as more of a surprise event than an encounter with the potential mystery of the female hijacker escaping. After that it's the implications of what goes down with and happens to the station manager and the noble.

Star Trek has plenty of episodes with rescue themes but I will recommend The Orville s1e8, one of the most cool rescue episode I've seen. As an entire series well there are many scifi series but all about rescue or day to day live in space not so many. Space 1999 had some strong vibes about workers on space having to handle an emergency. Planetees is an anime about the orbital cleaning service above earth, very slow pace and day to day stuff and very hard scifi only for a very specific type of audience xD The movie Space Truckers, awesome movie that also can give you an idea about a space emergency and very similar also Lily CAT an anime movie.

Seth, I think you may have missed some shorthand on the table for the chance of detection in this adventure, maybe because of the reference issues. I think that the numbers in the right column are variable targets numbers, not modifiers. So for a highly stealthy approach, a 3 or below on 2d6 has them spotted, but anything above that goes off without a hitch. Dunno if that's syntax that ever happens normally in Traveller, but I think that I recognize the language style from Warhammer.

I would love to run Traveller but there always seems to be caveats for the GM. Reading these adventures reminds me of old-school D&D when you had to "key" every room and provide details that should have already been included. Now, I understand the whole "make the game your own" thing but there is a certain baseline of information that I expect my hard earned dollars to pay for. I don't want to run or play a game that I have to flip and flip through pages and come up with "whelp, lets wing it." I appreciate you, Seth, can't wait for Voyagers of the Jump!

I really like those 3d printed ships and if I was running traveller face to face, I'd want them. No printer here though. When I was running a West End Games Star Wars game, I used the maps for the far trader for the smuggler's ship. This guy was an artist and actually built a scale model for 25mm miniatures for the entire ship using the scale blueprints I had. That thing was MASSIVE. It filled a table. It's a shame he didn't give it to me, because it would still exist, but I think he eventually threw it away. More the shame. Neat scenario and great review as always. These always make me want to play Traveller.

I think the Detection table is the chance on 2D6 not a modifier. So A careful direct approach is 6 or less on 2D6. So that is your target. You could also allow a pilot on board to use sensors to scan the ship as the rest of the crew is fighting although I recognize not isn’t as much fun as actually being in the fight. Possibly have to deal with events like a fuel tank rupture from the outside.

So why didn't they use the tow cable to lift the bow out of the water? If they had a 2nd pilot they might have been able to fly it out otherwise their ship has sufficient propulsion to lift it off the planet and tow it to base. The grappling arms with their great length could be used for the rescue of the guy on the sailing boat as well as removing obstacles (like capturing the guy with the gun), they can lift tons after all. Finally they have BREACHING TUBES they can enter where they want as long as it isn't through a fuel tank. Sounds like the PCs missed lots of options.

I got my first corporate job right out of college. Had my 23rd birthday during my first week. The job itself was pretty fun, pay was great, and the benefits were unbelievably good. Local Management, however, was incredibly toxic. It was as if they were conducting an experiment in mental torture. Several employees admitted to actually crying in their cars before working up the nerve to walk in every morning. Out of the whole international company, my office rated the worst in employee satisfaction two years in a row. That's including factories and warehouses. The home office itself (which really did care about employee satisfaction as part of their brand identity/philosophy) had us do follow-ups with anonymous interviews, and they sincerely wanted to find out why we weren't just the least happy employees but an order of magnitude less than every other office in the world. I was on the team tasked with conducting interviews and making the report. Problem was that our management got to interpret and report the findings back to Japan, so the official report back to the home office was pretty much, "They're whiney babies and nothing is wrong." My old coworkers and I have talked at length how some of our stories from that place don't even sound believable. I have trouble believing them, myself. They systematically crushed employees' spirits and convinced us all we were horrible and were lucky to even have a job and were hours away from getting fired at all times. Our Yearly Reviews were pretty much, "Here's why you're terrible at everything." We also had the best numbers in the country, but that didn't seem to matter. The movie Office Space was real popular at the time, and I was told how I just had to watch it because I looked vaguely similar to the Michael Bolton character. Watching it, I nearly started crying because it was so accurate, and what people considered as hilariously funny was my actual life. One of my bosses even talked exactly like Lumbergh. Good times.

Good review. I'm halfway through running this and wish I'd spotted this review earlier as I agree with all the critricisms. I really like this scenario because it gives the Referee plenty of latitude to shape it according to their party's needs and all the details is usable. What I do find frustrating is the duplication and absence of information across various pages. For instance there are several accounts about what happened to set up the final act but it's in at least three places and differs on each page. The ordering of this information is also odd. As Seth says, there's a reference to the cultural impact as a result of the PCs' approach but this has no bearing on player actions at that point in time. It would be more fitting to have this section in the epilogue.

The sense I get from the review is that this is mostly a campaign setting, with the optional adventure idea, and you can make what you want out of it. There's an obvious opportunity to sabotage one of the guard satellites (or detect and fix same) in order to create a hole in the monitoring grid for someone to fly in and out of the interdicted planet if they have a code. I'm suspicious of why the planet really is red-zoned. Maybe everyone down on the surface is actually a clone of someone else in the Imperium, and this is a "farm" for storing them and conditioning them with simple manual labor, until someone comes to "harvest" them for their owner's use. (like in the movie: "The Island".) There's not much on the inhabitants, you can imagine many kinds of scenarios, one being they're all psionics, and powerful ones, too, so once you go down, they absorb you into their community or eliminate or gain control of you, and nobody wants them to leave the surface to spread. The missing ship supplies could have been diverted to some secret base in the system, I guess. A secret private operation, maybe pirates. Maybe a Secret Naval op off the books and the station and rescue craft is just a handy cover. I mean, you can spin this any way you like as a GM.

This could be a cool start of a game with the characters on the ship. It would be wild for the players to start play as servants to the rich folks. Heck, if one were a former agent, this might be their last gig. Maybe even a player who is a noble or crew of the ship. Maybe even a hijacker. Then things happen and go wrong and the story unfolds that way. Players see each other and that is when we do connection skills. A hijacker PC could even get protected by his or her old friend. The rescue crew then are NPCs, with their badass Tech Level 14 suits. Of course, they might be under orders to clear out everyone in order to cover up for their boss. That would be a hard fight and maybe the PCs band together over that!

They don't have to be stuck to one place either, there could be adventures on nearby systems where the PC's have to take leave or go once their "on duty" time runs out and they are waiting for their next rotation to start. The Red class planet can have its own wierdness to it as well as the new science team that arrives to investigate the impact the rescuers and the crashed ship caused. Plus with all this new attention brought with the new traffic thanks to all the new comers there could be traders and corpos trying to hustle into the station for profit and increase and pirate and merc activity around the system because of all the new stuff.

Huh.. I haven’t done any roleplaying for like, decades but listening to this makes it obvious that many different referees do a lot of additional work for each module. Where do referees share this sort of work? I wonder how the work of several hundred playthroughs could be presented in the most accessible way.

I printed mine with FDM, they turned out reasonably well. 2ndDynasty was talking about maybe doing a myminifactory tribes (like patreon) for getting more minis made. But that will likely only happen if we get enough buy in on the ships boat and pennace

Mongoose sent it to me when they first showed me Traveller. It just never called to me, and the Trojan Reach isn't my favorite sector. Currently, we're in Chapter 2 of Traveller's Secrets of the Ancients campaign, which is way more my style.

@@SSkorkowsky One good thing about Traveller, its long history and vast setting means there's lots of different styles of scenario or campaign out there. Something for almost anyone's tastes as long as the base tech assumptions aren't too far off.

Invested in two kickstarters from them and an Empress Marava class... that would be really cool.
