t20 minor complaints

[Psion]

I think you misunderstand me. It's not ease of resolution or chance of getting teleportation that concerns me. It's the cost to the character. Teleportation is easily the most powerful sphere of T20 psionics, but is cheaper than all other psionic spheres to master in terms of number of feats.

On the subject of Psionics, I think some stuff (such as the prestige class) was cut at the last moment and will be covered in a future issue of Travellers' Aide. Check out the Citizens of the Imperium boards for more info : www.travellerrpg.com/CotI/

If they came out with a supplement I'd be happy, but travelers aide just wont help me. I'm either going to import another psionic system or just remove them from the game, I don't like the mechanics for geting psionics,improving psionics, or using psionics.

edit: That may have came out snotty or something. So just to clarify thaks for the suggestion it just doesn't fit my needs, I don't do the monthly mag type thing.

QuickLink, the company that put out T20, is currently working on a Players Handbook which will cover psionic characters in more depth. This won't be a Traveller's Aid article or issue, but a full-fledged supplement.

I don't know what the scheduled release date is, though.

Yeah, I know. It is just one talent. Of course, you'll have to excuse me but when I digest the gist of the rules, I am personally not comfortable spending feats for those talents.

Aside from my personal discomfort, I would suggest breaking the Teleport talents into five talent tree (Teleport I, Teleport II, etc.), the simplest being Teleport I the most powerful being Teleport V. Use the Teleportation table to determine minimum rank and benefit for each degree of Teleport.
