Thanks! Lol I just bought a set of the “original” books 1-3.

This is great!

Wow … the reviews on this are kind of all over the place …

Classic Traveller is the best Traveller.

I really wish Marc Miller would release the original 1977 versions of the books and give a POD option. This version is from 1981 and makes quite a few changes. The original 1977 version is a lot more open and freeform toolkit. Still...fantastic game.

I get the complaint about the price. Which is odd seeing that the pods are half that.

It’s a historical kinda thing. It’s like someone complaining about OD&D needing two different other games to be “complete”.

As opposed to newer editions? I've been circling around Traveller for a while, but I got some contradicting advices left and right about what edition to get.

The newest Mongoose edition was on my radar.

The OG is very 70's, but material for any Traveller edition us fairly compatible. The Mongoose stuff has a ton of useful advice based on decades of people playing RPGs.

My go to version is Mongoose Traveller.

Though my copy is a couple revisions old, however I’d get the latest revision before starting and new game and plan to use that.

The extra character and party creation steps are worth it alone.

Actually, goijg through thisnfree document, this is a curious artifact: a 2001 compilation of the original 3 Starter Set books, with some editorial work and commentary.
