What software do you use for managing your games?

One question and one "Like Minds"...LOL

So, IIRC, Admiral Arbellatra ended the 2FW and then lit out for the Core to end the Civil War in the OTU.
So, where you way "they were supporters and favorites of Arbellatra during and after the Civil War",
Are you altering the OTU version and putting Arbellatra in charge sooner, or are you suggesting the family were in the Spinward Marches, and
were Naval officers with commands that supported her in those events?

As for "Like Minds", I had written a storyline involving the "Order of the White Star" some years ago and began dropping hooks.
One of those hooks had taken hold, but had been on the outer limits of my PC's plans until recently.
As a result, their 'current plans' are to jump from Ghandi(Lanth - Spinward Marches) to Lanth itself, and then to the Interdicted Sonthert system.

There, they have some data the Order of the White Star had a base which has been "erased from history" and are hoping to find artifacts and lost tech toys. My plans are to have them meet up with the drifting hulk of the Sword of Arbellatra and experience a modified set of the events contained in the adventures published in the Traveller's Digest issues 14 - 17

Keeping that part of canon (though there is plenty I've thrown out). The family was noble, naval, though probably not located in the Spinward Marches - just long-time supporters on the right side of history.

That adventure from TTD was great! The role of psionics in the Imperium is one that I've loved to play with over the years - especially after TNE revealed the supposedly long-standing existence of "house psychics." My Imperium is modeled a bit more expressly on the British Empire, so I pull a lot of fluff from that history. So the Order of the White Star was a perfect fit, but I also wanted a Freemason-style organization, the very inner workings of include psychics - thus the Fellowship of Lost Travellers (complete with various inner orders, titles, and stylings, lol).
