Hi Tom,

 

And of course MTU is MegaTraveller and who plays that anymore?


Only truly enlightened souls.

Thought I don't play the setting anymore, just the game engine.
 

Maybe someday.


I get that. Just interested in lower tech systems (vs. all the TL-15 stuff). IMTU, some sort of TL-10 to TL-12 cap would suit me. Not really interested in the highest of techs. Some of the best fun stuff has happened on TL7-9 planets.

It's always nice to see what others are putting together for a home brew universe, but real life is what it is and time is precious and what you need to play is often not what you need to display or publish.

Thanks for sharing what you have.
 

 

Best regards,

 

Ewan

I like the notion between these.

There might be an interesting TL-9/TL-10 hybrid where they've only got certain parts of TL-10, given the setting of a system on transition.

 

Maybe I should know this, Ewan, but did you have a place on the Net that is accessible to see more of what you're doing with your campaign?

My first go at a TL8 version of the small launch didn’t work as the propulsion was too big. I might have a go with a different propulsion system, but my guess is that 4 tons @ TL 8 is just too small.

 

Anyway here is the TL10 version of the small launch …

The Jugriang class small launch is a design by Langria Shipyards of Boogerian that fits into a standard 4 ton vehicle bay, such as the vehicle bays usually specified in Boogerian 50 ton space habitats, or the Smithson Class Scout where it can be carried as an auxiliary craft. This is the TL10 progression of the Longsa class small launch, and as such is a much more comfortable ride with grav plating and inertial compensators as well as faster close to planetary bodies.

                Intended as relatively low-cost space travel it allows the residents of Boogerian to situate their habitats almost anywhere in system and still be able to commute to work or school if needed. It has a standard modular frame fitting so can be carried by a modular ship or boat as needed, as well as connect to standard space habitat to be able to provide propulsion to the habitat as may be needed.

                The main cost of the launch is the TL10 Active EMS sensor systems. To keep cost down no passive sensors were installed.
