Straybow,
MT was a true attempt at "CT Advanced" which unfortunately tied to a moderatley disliked setting change. MT tries to integrate CT Bks 1-7, Supp 4, 8, and 11, Striker, and the DGP Task system. CG from Bk2 is enhanced to produce characters more ballanced with Bk4-7 characters. T&C is educed solely to Bk7. Combat mechanics are derived from striker (cross-check pens and armor...), and tied to Bk1 range bands. Damage is separated from pen for realism and survivability. The real problem was the only real innovation of MT: Interrupts and sequencing. Ugly. Very fun, once you know what you're doing. Also, problematic for many were the changes to Jump Fuel... (5x JDrive Volume for max jump; J1 is unchanged, and still 10%, J2 and better are thus reduced from CT. One last issue many CTers have: MT defines that the MDrives drives are gravitic in nature; CT didn't state it (but it was not an uncommon assumption).

Obviously only Avery, and perhaps Hunter, can say for sure, but the indications are that something will be forthcoming in the next year or so. I can appreciate that Marc & co. are playing things close to the chest right now until their plans are more concrete, rather than raise false expectations.

It would be nice to see MT and other products on CD.
Like TNE or 2300AD. How about all of the Challenge issues! For me, I dropped MT because of the time required to do starship design. I liked the CT 15 minute ships. But I use MT material and TNE material extensively in my campaign. Savage
