Happy Anniversary

Thirty One Years Ago Today...

...three little black saddle stapled booklets with a simple red stripe and the word Traveller appeared. The game is still alive and well even in it's original form, but also includes several variations and more to come. Not many RPGs can say that.

Go play...

 

[Thoth-Amon]

Happy Birthday. Traveller will never die for it has a kind of magic that allows its lifespan to live on forever.

What a bunch of obsessives we are!

But, true. It's a kinda magic!

Nearly as important as the thing that appeared 39 years ago today...

And I was there probably a year~ish later, in a hobby store with a wargame section in the back, and saw these books and asked the clerk "what's this traveller thing... they spelled it wrong" he gave me his run down and I gave him my money....

I got home read it, made a character... the brain virus had taken deep root and has never left.

Yea!

Happy Anniversary to Traveller, and the Apollo Project, which happened while I was at work so I kinda forgot it...my shame.

And it's not magic people, that's the other game, this one uses anagathics.

And last but not least....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREW! (from your Drooling Fan)

It's okay, the restraining order keeps the drool off my shoes now...

 

[Magnus von Thornwood]

Restraining order?

It's okay, the restraining order keeps the drool off my shoes now...

Oh, so that's what the sheriff's office was here for...oops.

Well, then happy birthday, that man - which means once again there are at least some folks out there younger then me (although admittedly not by a lot! )

 

[Spinward Scout]
