Subject: Full Traveller
I believ that BITS (British Isles Traveller Support) *have* done a conversion to Full Thrust. I do not know if that have posted it on the web, or intend to sell it (Again, St Jon might be annoyed with both, as BITS is a semi commercial concern). The way I would do Full Traveller. Scale down the mass. Make this a RPG scale combat system (Ie, the largest ship in the system would be a Cruiser, and it will out blast and armour all other ships. 1 mass = 10 tons. 10 mass = 1 Hard Point 10 Hard Points = 1 Bay Weapons: Weapons are put in turrents. Up to 3 weapons per turrent (1 beam = Class 1, 2 beam = Class 2, 3=Class 3) Sandcasters = Level 1 shields. Takes 1 slot in turrent. Missiles - MT Missiles. Missiles take 1 slot in a turrent, magazines may store other missiles (1 turn to reload slot). I will thrash this out more (using Gurps Traveller as a base) and let you know Darryl
