I've bought many as well without ever really playing them. I got a few GURPS Basic set last year plus Banestorm, also the Shadowrun 20th anniversary edition, & 3 Premium 1st AD&D hardbacks. But then I went on a break. Before I went on my break, what I decided to do was use the Mythic system...

Gruffle Gruffle looks around at everyone from the computer with the accounting spreadsheet, then gets back to facing the computer to try & figure it out. OOC: messed up on the dice. ignore all results except the last two. I subtracted the - 5 penalty. I'm not sure if I have a skill of...

Jimmy & msyelf already failed it. Jimmy has an accounting skill & my math wizardry skills couldn't figure it out either. Let's face it, this guy looks pretty clean so far. So we may need to perform a simple con job to get to the truth.

:) Let's get the buy-in from the rest of the team & then try it out.

Shouldn't the accounting roles be hidden roles? Basically if we "fail" it simply means that for all we can tell the books are clean. And we'll need to see about finding some other route to find corruption. I was thinking the next plan might be to ask the Lab Head if he'd like to go out for a...

Gruffle "You're looking at it all wrong Jimmy. Why don't you try again? I don't have the accounting skills, but if we can't figure it out here, I say we get a copy of the data & take it over to an accounting firm to look at." says Gruffle. To the group & out of earshot of any clerical staff...

It seems ok so far. Reminds me of Modern setting with some scifi elements added in. There's different ways to play sci-fi. One way is this way..taking a Modern setting & extrapolating the future on top of it. The other way is to take a Medieval or fantasy setting. For instance, I just...

Gruffle Gruffle enters the room & takes a look around (OOC: what does this office look like?). "Hello Jovan. We're here to do an audit. Kindly point us to the books & give us a tour of the campus. Please note that if we find anything out of the ordinary, you'll likely be the first one to...

Gruffle Gruffle gives a sneer at the woman's attempt at being flirtatious. "Excuse me, Human, but we need to speak to your boss. Please get him out here or show us to his or her office."

Sorry about the long delay. I was sick for a week & then last week spent most of time catching up on the previous week's work.

Gruffle "So Minnie, why do these workers look so tired? What kind of work do they do?"

Gruffle "Let's head in & announce ourselves." says Gruffle. Gruffle looks around at the area, trying to determine the distance from HQ back to the tram & to look for anything unusual such as additional security guards or just anything that looks suspicious. OOC: What does the Simulgrab...

You ever hear of the Dumarest of Terra Saga? Apparently that's where a lot of the high passage/ low passage stuff. The guy wrote 33 books for the saga & it's about the guy, Dumarest, going from one planet deep in the Milky Way galaxy & traveling back to Earth. Each book is basically Dumarest on...

Gruffle Gruffle turns to Billy & says, "So what's your idea of an underhanded shenanigan exactly? And what do you think of your boss?" OOC: Gruffle is trying to see if he can catch Billy in a lie. Defaults to Perception - 6, which will be 8 or less for Gruffle.

Gruffle Gruffle interjects, "We're from off-planet visiting by request from HQ. If you don't mind my asking, how do you like the work at Simulgrab? You been employed there long?"

Gruffle Gruffle growls out at the nearest grounded air tram that he can find & says, " Hey there. Stop! We need a ride over to Simulgrab. How much for the ride? "

I have a lot of other books/tools to buy first. The amount of Traveller materials out there is overwhelming. It makes me wish I had paid more attention to Traveller back in the 80s, but at the time, I didn't know anyone that played it in my area, nor have a copy of it!

Universe Sandbox Have you guys seen Universe Sandbox? I think it just showed up on Steam recently. However, it appears to be a tool that you can use to design your own star systems, galaxies or whatever. Could be useful for some of those aggressive die-hard Traveller GMs out there. I...

haha. I thought you'd want to make a map, part of the fun of dungeoning as the dungeon master. :lol: I believe there are some free software tools out there that can build some maps. I've been hankering to play with some of them myself (starting with the free/cheap ones)...

Gruffle Gruffle looks at the message coming across his beeper. (OOC: What's it say?). "As for ideas about the approach, let's just head over there & show them who we are & start inspecting. If they don't know we're coming they won't have time to delete or hide their data before we can get...
