[QUOTE="TrippyHippy, post: 7913145, member: 27252"] Well it’s an opinion about the quality of the 3rd party stuff. Spica and Gypsy Knight produced a range of products, but for me personally, it’s not anything compelling enough to make me rush out to buy them in all honesty - in the same way I found with most 3rd party D20 stuff too. The product range for Mongoose Traveller 2nd edition, even within the remit of only producing 3rd Imperium stuff alone, is so vast that there is more than enough material to make multiple Traveller campaigns last for a lifetime. There isn’t any need, for me personally, to have third party material and that is just where I am at with it all. Mongoose had to work with whatever negotiations they made with Marc Miller when they renegotiated their license for the 2nd edition - it was a new license as the old one expired. Again, I don’t see how Mongoose are obliged to provide third parties with anything, and whatever terms they did agree to - Marc Miller agreed to it too. I’ve always found COTI to be hostile to Mongoose and it’s fans also, as can be Cepheus fans, so I tend to discuss Mongoose Traveller elsewhere these days. Curiously, I’m still a paying member of COTI, so more fool me I suppose. [/QUOTE]
