[QUOTE="Mongoose_Matt, post: 9045967, member: 239"] All going well, next week sees the release of The Imperial Navy - we are just working on the last bits of art and graphic design to really knock this tome out of the park! So, what can you expect to see in this book? Penned by Martin Dougherty, The Imperial Navy aims to be the last word on the Imperium's senior service, and we have really tried to fit everything into this book, from its birth in the history of the Imperium, to current tactics and deployment strategies. [ATTACH type="full" width="852px"]287805[/ATTACH] All of this is, of course, complimented with some of the finest art to grace the interior of a Traveller book. [ATTACH type="full" width="858px"]287806[/ATTACH] From fleet organisation and the different roles each ship plays within the navy, to the duties of personnel at every level The Imperial Navy works well as background for the Referee as well as fleshing out Navy career characters - there is plenty in here for Travellers to latch onto as they start to explore just what a rolled event during their career actually meant for their development. [ATTACH type="full" width="863px"]287807[/ATTACH] You will also learn about security and operational procedures aboard a warship of the navy, what personnel are generally equipped with, and where interlopers will get stopped (generally right outside whatever airlock or hangar they entered by, normally...). You can see here the entire chapter listings from the book's contents page: Introduction Historical Perspective The Role of the Navy Fighting an Interstellar War Organisation of the Imperial Navy Commanding the Fleets Naval Bases Ships and Craft Naval Operations Shipboard Operations Shiphandling Tactics Equipment and Weaponry Personnel Navy Life The Old Expanses Sector Fleet Craft and Vessels of the Imperial Navy [ATTACH type="full" width="859px"]287808[/ATTACH] As will also be clear, we have gone heavy on the graphics in this book to demonstrate clearly not only fleet organisation but also typical tactics employed by the Imperial Navy. We have done this as an aid to the text, bringing to life just how these big ships are used against pirates, invading fleets and, yes, errant Travellers. Finally, we have taken a new look at the classic Tigress dreadnought, with a really deep dive into its internal workings and usage in the fleets. [ATTACH type="full" width="865px"]287809[/ATTACH] The Imperial Navy will be released on PDF and pre-order next week. As mentioned, we are just waiting for the last art and graphics, and final proofing, so we are currently expecting it to appear mid- to late week! [/QUOTE]
