Interesting document by Neil Lucock about navigation and relative speed and the consequences of that.
Traveller assumes that when exiting a jump a starship preserves the speed and direction it had when it left the previous system.
If our ship is in Earth orbit, we have to remember that Earth is going around the sun at 107,000 kilometers an hour. The target system may have its planets rotating at right angles to the plane of our origin system, perhaps going faster or slower…
It is talk like a Pirate day! At YouTube I found a new and fun video called Star Dogs. It is like a mix of Red Dwarf and Firefly with a very low budget. But is is still quite fun.
Cepheus Journal is a fanzine for the Cepheus Engine rules. With these rules you can not only play space adventures. You can play in lots of other settings. That is why some of us thought that a fanzine was needed. And here it is! Issue #001 of Cepheus Journal is ready for (free) download.
The Cepheus Journal Website has opened. That website will be the place to get your Cepheus Journal Fanzine.
There is already something to download. Rosalis Cluster, a sector made with the Cepheus Engine rules (but it will also work well with most Traveller versions).
