this setting is concurrent with the OTU, but it takes place in the Andromeda Galaxy in a place called originally enough called the Andromeda Sector, the adjacent sectors are as of yet unnamed.
The races in this sector are different from the standard Traveller fare.
There are native humans that were brought here by the Ancients over 100,000 years ago, they are stone age tribes until contacted by settlers from the Imperium.
