T4 Starship Design Rules

[rosswinn]

There were two sets of alternate T4 design rules in my collection. One set were the 'quick & dirty' rules. I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the other set.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Do you mean part of the game line - T4 main rulebook, Starships, and Fire, Fusion and Steel - or do you mean fan produced versions?

 

[rosswinn]

fan versions

 

[mike wightman]

Is this the one you've got?
Look in the Archive for the QSDS v.1.5.1

 

[rosswinn]

yes, that is the one.

 

[mike wightman]

Hmm, and you remember others.

That could be interesting, if anyone can find them.

Half an hour of googling shows nothing so far...

but I won't give up...

Hmm indeed. I'm racking my brains and getting nothing. I do rememeber a SDS before QSDS on the net or TML but think it was just a correction of the mess from the T4 main book.

And there was a rather nice java scripted version of SDS on a Traveller fan site about that time but it disappeared years ago and I've lost the copy.

Is it the SSDS?

Check the Missouri Archive's T4 section (Joe Heck's it seems; site has lots of other goodies tucked away)

direct link

IIRC it's another T4 design system that got frelled up during publication and was corrected online. There's also at least one vehicle design system in that directory.

Hope this helps.

That is the one, thank you very much!
