MegaTraveller Module Survey

I hate to ask because I hope I'm not opening any old wounds, but would the MT reprints include all of the DGP stuff? I mean stuff like "World Builder's Handbook" the referee's screen, or anything else that's not listed on the poll.

Nope it will not but come on there is still a great deal of inherent ooolness like:

Knightfall
Hard Times
Arrival Vengeance
Assignment Vigilante

These all go for prime prices on Ebay and I always wanted them.

I have all of the above modules and that would indeed make a very cool product. Just hoping that it gets printed in its original A4/8.5x11 format.

However, I would like to see some extras perhaps from Challenge added in or if Marc has hidden manuscripts for fleshing out the Hard Times milieu further, I don't think anyone here would object...just what articles...? My guess the stuff on Mendes and the Antares sector which was to be the original setting for T5 might find a nice home in this reprint. It is gritty enough to provide an excusion into the comparatively "light" Hinterworlds sector...

Whoa, I had missed this entirely. Hopefully I'm not too late in this.

My ratings:

10____ MegaTraveller Boxed Set
9____ Players Handbook
8____ Referee’s Handbook
9____ Imperial Encyclopedia
9____ Referee's Companion
7____ Rebellion Sourcebook
0____ COACC
0____ Fighting Ships
8____ Knightfall
0____ Hard Times
8____ Arrival Vengeance
9____ Assignment Vigilante
7____ Astrogator’s Guide to Diaspora

Comments:
COACC, Fighting Ships and Hard Times get a 0 because I don't have them. So no comment on them. MT Boxed Set gets a 10, even if none of the individual books in it get a 10, because it was such a great package (regardless of the little faults in the books). Ref's Handbook got penalized for the excessive errata. I never found much use for the Rebellion Sourcebook nor the Astrogator's Guide. The big adventures (Knightfall and Arrival Vengeance) were a little too broad and far-sweeping for me, YMMV, whereas Vigilante was a bit on the short side (but great nevertheless). Note that all of this came off the top of my head, so it should be labelled "IIRC".

Comments, part 2:
As you can see, I really liked MegaTraveller (and still do!).
 
I'd definately buy Challange reprints. I sold off my copies of large format JTAS and Challange to some fat lady who ran a game shop in San Francisco, and have regretted it eversince. I'd be a happy camper if I could get all that information in a DOC, TXT or PDF format on a CD.
