T5 status

[whulorigan]

Hello Aramis,
I am totally necroing a thread here. Apologies. I have been playing and running Traveller since before FASA existed, and I am a collector of all things Traveller. I have to confess that with my career, 4 kids and some grandkids, I somehow missed the X-Boat on the whole T-5 thing, which I have since corrected and purchased. I was wondering if you could direct me to anything that might be hard to find that would have expanded on the Galaxiad, specifically the cultures/aliens/empires that seem to be hinted at?
Any help in this would be greatly appreciated,
respectfully
Arigon.

I don't know if you have it or not, but I just posted a free-PDF in the Resorces Section that used to be on the FFE Website a while back but seems to have not been available for quite some time.

Also: XBoat Special Supplement 2: Galaxiad Gaming Kit.
Which is about 82 pages and covers the history, setting and tech, including Hop Drive, TL-16 and -17 tech and a is generally a good overview.

I would highly recommend.
If they could hammer this out a bit, add a brief rules pamphlet, a map a deckplan and a sort adventure it would make a great starter set.

How to adapt T4 and T5 to MgT - as in MgT is now the default for Traveller.

Referee decides on the difficulty of a task and rolls dice to determine the target number

easy 1d, routine 2d, difficult 3d, challenging 4d - this becomes the number the player(s) must achieve on their roll to succeed.

The PC using their MgT/CT/MT character rolls 2d+DMs

Oops.
Wrong link.
That was Special Supplement 1,
For Galaxiad you want Special Supplement 2.
