SAFCOcast 4: Traveller Recap and Homebrew Vehicular Combat System, Mail Bag, Upcoming Cons in Texas

Note: Episodes 1-14 happened before we changed to a Traveller-only show. In those episodes we discuss some other RPGs. As time went on we realized we were really a Traveller-only podcast, and in Episode 15 officially made the switch. You will find lots of Traveller talk in 1-14. Just be aware.

After a month of work and vacation, we're back!

This episode is all about Traveller, specifically Classic Traveller and Cepheus Engine stuff. It's also the debut of SAFCO Mail Bag, in which we respond to comments and email we've gotten.

As always, comment here, on Bob's gaming blog (where this show is embedded), or email us at [email protected].

Links to stuff in the show:

Traveller Session Report about the game session we discuss,  from our Into the Void campaign. Gypsy Knights Games - where you can find all the Clement Sector rulebooks, including the Core Rulebook and the Core Setting book. Fantastic stuff! Cepheus Engine - the core rulebook for "Traveller with the serial numbers filed off." Very compatible with Classic Traveller, and like the Clement Sector stuff a great source of usable modern updates to the classic system.
