Guilded Lilly Unoffical Errata

[shield]

The Victrix class ship presented within the Guilded Lilly adventure is broken. So here is a replacement version.

This is based upon a design worked up by Sigg Oddra and myself a while back.

TAS Form 3.1 (Condensed) Ship’s Data (Commercial)

An updated version of the basic TL12 Victrix sloop with a relic TL13 J4 Jump drive and power plant. The remainder of the ship is the TL12 version. In order to provide the space for the additional jump drive components and jump fuel, a smaller more efficient TL13 power plant had to be installed, and the crew accommodation reduced still further. Even so, the J4 Victrix can only manage an agility of 3.

How was it broken?

Whilst on the topic of the Lilly are you good folks going to release over at ComStar? What other dead tree goodies does ComStar promise...that was originally supposed to be QLI?

Several areas.

the crew was the original TNE levels rather than the T20 crew levels (lots of extra crew).
The turrets took up too much space
There was only 1 wks worth of pp fuel. The crew would have died in jump space.

The intent is to let QLI publish the guilded lilly triology. They were submitted to them first so fairs fair. I was hoping with the release of Guilded Lilly, the other parts would follow, but I think Hunter is concentrating on Traveller 2300.

Only if worst comes to worst re QLI (hope not) will we have to think of other publishers.

Ah, ok! Broken as from a T20 perspective - that's what I was curious about.

That is interesting though, not to derail the thread too much here, or anything, but the crew levels in TNE are kind of a byproduct of the environment. Do the T20 rules do away with that, or account for it at all?

Not that I have a problem with that, mind you. I have felt that the crew needs in TNE are slightly excessive. A slightly larger engineering crew because of Virus I can definitely buy, but some of these are a LOT.

In case anyone is interested I did a TNE version of the original TL12 Victrix, ie how the vessel would have been before the RC started playing with modules. You can find this version at

Cool, thanks for that, Antony!
