I've just bought this. I am wondering if you can please clarify the relationship of this book to others on the site. "Explorer's Edition" only includes career options for Scout and Scholar, and only has one kind of ship, the type S:

• Is this a preview of the Traveller Core Rulebook Update 2022? [i.e. material will be verbatim from this future book]
• Is it selected material from Traveller Core ebook? [i.e. material is verbatim from this earlier volume] (and is that book superseded by the Rulebook update 2022?).
• Is it something else entirely (a basic version or an in=between version?)?

While I suspect they are all compatible with each other, it really should be easier to see how these things relate to one another.

It is basically a starter/tester book - all the core rules, with enough to get you going on an 'explorer' style campaign with scouts and scientists heading into uncharted space.

Hope that helps!

So... "core rules" from the update [MGP40058]?

Drawn directly from the Core Rulebook Update 2022 - the very latest!
