Book 2 is Starships, it's an integral part of the game, we were playing Imperium, a wargame by GDW in Chess club, and a friend saw Traveller in the catalog. You can get Pilot 6 from Character Generation, I saw someone the other day have a skill 6, think it was gun combat. Pilot 3 is not all that...

apples to oranges

Why? I am very familar with how Traveller's skills work, I don't need anyone to explain them. Pilot 3 is nothing like 5e's 18.

You hate space combat, so you don't care about pilot skill, so your pilot one isn't baseline it's just your way of playing the game. Do you get how what the skill has informed the game? Probabilities don't work by frequency of rolls, one roll or a 1000 the probability of success of failure don't...

I like a PC to be compent, and for the player to be confident in their PC too; easy enough for them to have skill 3 in their main task, using the skill packages, and connections, plus in Kosmic (Cepheus Engine, Mongoose 1e derived) I give them a point for their main task, such as pilot...

What's cool about real life damage, is that it never really heals. Uh maybe not. lol

People side with strength a lot, it's natural, and then flee when the bully gets it.

To us it's a bug, to them it's a feature, "the leader principle" or something. Though I would say it is quite a bit older.

It's a good quote, though I'm feeling the White Rose in that people have a vain hope of dealing with things through reason, when there is no rationality behind it all. They are going to be all five lights no matter what, unquestioningly.

Engineers are taught to be precise, it comes off as being brusk, though it really isn't. It's like people don't like my game for it's data driven feel, others engineers have complimented the same. A retired rocket scientist asked me to write his autobiography, I replied I know nothing about...
