The font and color scheme are very much on point. Traditionally fuel would be marked, but everyone knows all the nooks available are used for fuel, so I don't mind the omission.

These wounds, they will not heal ...

I don't get the hate either. It's a perfectly cromulent show. It innovates within a franchise, while paying homage for its predecessors, without derailing into fan service/derivative nostalgia porn. That's a hard thing to accomplish.

And I see the critiques and while they're valid, they're mostly "this show isn't a masterpiece", which yes. But fucking Virgin River got renewed for a sixth season, it makes no sense to not renew this one.

I saw a meme here on Lemmy and can't seem to find it again. Or on Google. It's a 3-panel format that goes like this:

Image Text
IMG 1 A bullet may have your name on it
IMG 2 But a grenade says only "to whom it may concern"
Ripley w/ flamethrower "Dear area residents"

Anyone seen it?

Zozer Games' excellent survival horror sci-fi RPG is available on BoH. Everything you need to run and play and more for under $10 or a full set of books for a little over $20.

And they have created a new bundle with extra goodies! Head over for the Hostile Hot Zones bundle to check it out! Going for $13 or $26 depending on choice.

Together with the Starforged bundle ($15, 3 days left), it's a good month to spend on sci-fi RPGs!

Largest "Small Craft"

Currently working on designs for some larger "small craft". variant Shuttles, a Marine Dropship, and a larger Marine Assault Carrier. The dropship is 40 dton, and the shuttle variants are 100, 200, and 500 dtons, the assault carrier is probably 400 dtons. What is the range of small craft in your Traveller universe?

No, it's designed as a historic catalogue of notable past starships. It's a cool read. Just found out you can buy a restored/scanned copy off of DrivethruRPG.

There's more to the TTA universe, Mr Cowley has fleshed it out quite a bit, but this is the most famous book.

[-] Scallops@ttrpg.network 4 points 8 months ago

Nice! Another good source is the Terran Trade Authority books of yore. I'll see if I can find something.

Of course. What is sambal, just in case there's someone in the audience that doesn't know it?

I liked his cyberpunk deck, so I thought I'd share

That's correct, it's a related/linked but separate comment chain. The goal of cross posting often is just linking to the original post.

Some clients don't clearly mark crossposts as such. Some of the growing pains of the treadiverse.

Like the other commenter pointed out, piefed is addressing a lot of those issues, so the future looks good.
