Ben’s athleticism and streetwise skills match up well with David’s engineering and piloting skills so David asked Ben to join him as first mate. He has rechristened the ship as “the Lord Stanley” after his great-grandfather and namesake.Ĭonnected via a common lawyer contact a month ago, David and Ben quickly became friends, no doubt aided by their mutual loathing of Navy Commander Harvey Spillett who blackmailed both men to advance his own fortunes. This is Cr16,000/month in mortgage fees for the next 40 years. Ben has recently been kicked out of a gang that has infiltrated the Navy organization on Glisten and has used its position there to hide many shady operations on Glisten.ĭavid sold his Ship’s Boat for 80% of its original value (Cr12,800,000) and has purchased a used Scout ship (Type S, V-K Freight Courier Conversion) for Cr20,500,000, leaving a Cr7,700,000 mortgage to be paid. Both men have recently made significant life changes: David, after a solid set of tours in the Navy and a period in the Merchant service, is looking for a new career in trading. We open with David and Ben sitting in a bar on the asteroid world, Glisten.

The Traveller Map ( ) which is linked to the Traveller RPG Wiki ( ) has been extremely useful in placing the campaign into the Traveller world and for the data to drive the trade opportunities.įor keeping track of things, I have been using good old Microsoft Word as my main documentation tool. For example, I used one of the articles from the Freelance Traveller for the design of the Type S Freight/Courier ship my characters are used (see Item # 3 below) and another for the basic on-planet engine to drive a solo campaign ( ). For this solo campaign, there is more than enough information here to manage pretty much everything I need.įor supplemental material, the Freelance Traveller website ( ) has tons of information that can be adapted for use with the 2008 Mongoose rule book. For the main rule set, I am using a pdf version of Mongoose Publishing's 2008 Traveller Rulebook (also known as the 1st edition) (.
