What has happened at The Base in 2018? A lot of things, but not as much as I had hoped!

Highlights

The Zhodani Base now has reached over 850 fans at facebook.

Season 2 (8 new episodes) of the Adventures of the Starship Notorious.

The Mnemosyne Sourcebook by Dylan Lee was added.

SSL (https) added.

Chat (connecting to the original #traveller IRC) added.

Lowlights

All the things I didn’t have time to write or finish.

There was no Amber Zone Contest this year.

There were no reviews.

I had to change web host.
