T5 Material in CT?

[Foxroe]

Question for discussion:

From what we've seen so far, will anyone be using T5 material in their CT games? If so, what will you use?

(I realize T5 has not been released yet, but I think everyone has a general idea of what lies therein... and we can always add to the discussion once the T5 CD ships.)

I'm looking forward to being able to roll lots of dice. I still have a big jar that I got for the Great Orc War of 1985. Until T5, I never had a good use for 100 D6 since that would be 50 attack rolls in CT. Now with T5, that could represent less than a dozen attacks - a squad of snipers shooting through foliage?

I look forward to a Book 2 replacement, which has enough variety to also cure my envy of MegaTraveller's vehicle design system.

I found that USING the MegaTraveller's vehicle design system cured me of my envy of it's greater options. It has even dampened my enthusiasm for getting FF&S. [I'll wait for the TNE CD].

I have been intrigued by some of what I've seen for the T5 starship design. I'm still not sure about the graphic design system with the custom font, but it is SO different that it seems worth taking a close look at.

That didn't stop the ct-starships folks from retrofitting MT stuff to High Guard, and it shouldn't stop anyone else, either. There are useful ideas amidst the insanity.
