PURPOSE. To be a one-stop-but-limited, rules-agnostic, Library Data for the Third Imperium in 1115.

Formal Cause (I think). There is so much library data scattered throughout Traveller material, that it can be hard to find a particular informational entry to something in the game. The essential features of the OTU needs consolidation.

One Stop. It consolidates library data found in the MegaTraveller Imperial Encyclopedia, CT supplements, adventures, and so on. Where applicable, it includes more current library data (e.g. Abyssals, the QSP, et al).

Limited. It excludes details and data when it's been done better in accessible ways -- for example, Don's integrated timeline won't be replicated here.

Rules-Agnostic. Tasks and processes are omitted.

Third Imperium 1115. This is an OTU work. Though it is largely a "year 1115" effort, it will retain notes on the Rebellion and other eras. Entries are tagged specifically so you don't have to guess, with a default of OTU 1115.

interesting but a lack of images :) And it looks like some OCR issues or something in some entries as we get some fun symbols. See the free trader entry for an example.
 
The wiki isn't self-updating... what that means is you're free to edit it, but the edits stay in your browser.

When you do make edits, you CAN download the whole shebang to your computer. And use it locally.

How You Can Help
  1. Typos and bad unicode characters in entries.
  2. Suggest changes and corrections to entries.
  3. Suggest entries for removal. Maybe some of them seem relatively useless.
  4. Suggest potential new entries (I haven't looked at JTAS, Paranoia Press, Judges Guild...)
