I think it’s just because Lemmy (and the fediverse) doesn’t yet have a critical mass.

Before creating !scifi@ttrpg.network I was thinking about creating a community for Traveller alone. But I decided to poll several other places beforehand. Not a lot of people showed interest. That’s why I decided to create a more general community.

I share your need for activity. I really do. I just don’t have much to offer. At least at the moment. I’ve been dabbling with mapmaking lately, but I’m not prolific enough. I have plans, oh yes, quite a few ideas brewing and bubbling, but nothing to show. Yet.

It’s very common, expected really, to have many more consumers than producers in any social network. But I’m still here. And I’d bet a few more are also around. Lurking? (I love that word when used so casually)

We’re listening.

Just a crack in the stone… it’s just meant to break the white space. But of course, you can insert a subplot.

😅

Thanks!

Tiny maps are very forgiving. And they’ve helped me improve my skills over time.

Nah. I’m not that good.

Maybe I’m not even plain good, but that’s too lengthy a discussion for here. 😅

Perhaps not with those exact names, but there’s a fix:

Do you happen to remember the name of the game?

Nothing in particular in mind. And certainly nothing new. Just wanted to make something out of the 100+ micro maps I’ve done.

Edit (May 2nd) - Traveller5 bundle includes: Traveller5 Core Rules 3-Book Set, T5 Starships & Spacecraft deck plans, and T5 Gazelle-Class Close Escorts

a little sus that it’s published by the same company that owns Traveller

How so?

Or maybe I need to finish my first cup of coffee? XD

Well it’s fixed now… so I didn’t even get to clear cache and retry. But I did try opening on another browser (before writing my comment above) with similar results.

I want to be able to report a bug to the developers, but I have no idea what to tell them that might be useful. I guess I can dive into their issues tracker and take it from there.

Uhm… something’s off again on my side.

Are there specific symptoms I should be looking into?

There’s also !scifi@ttrpg.network which should have some overlap with cyberpunk.

I must confess I’ve never tried his builds. Mostly because I don’t have easy access to a color printer and the last time I tried grayscale papercraft it was underwhelming.

Alas, I usually try making fantasy ruins out of cardboard and scraps. If it ends up crooked, the more ruined they look. 😉

Not sure that’s the case, as I was browsing on this instance.

But… I did notice this issue just after I was trying to upload an image with “too many pixels”… maybe I was being throttled because of that?

Whatever it was, it seems to be solved now.

It seems like this issue is back…?

Pretty much every image in the instance is replaced with:

You can algo get it at DTRPG:

Does anyone know the story about this edition? It does seem like it was intended to be faxed. 😅

Wait… did you even get to use fax machines? Geez, I’m old.

Anyway, while I didn’t play Traveller back in the day, this edition holds a special place in my heart. I had watched Seth Skorkowsky’s videos (I think he had completed the full series, not too long ago if you’re keeping score) and thought: this is the game I want to play. But I was absolutely broke. I got started with Cepheus Engine SRD, because I didn’t even know if my players would like it and didn’t want to spend money that I didn’t even have. I think I got this facsimile edition for $1, and I was ecstatic.

Granted, I had everything truly necessary out of the Cepheus Engine SRD, but I felt like I was chipping in somehow.

Thanks Marc!
