Hi folks,
Been roleplaying about 20 odd years, and finally decided to run some Traveller, as a break from AD&D
I've got the Traveller Core Rulebook, and the 760 patrons book (classic, of course not T20 as I have so many fond memories of playing it many years ago, along with the Megatraveller 1 computer game!)..
I've read mixed reviews of the Babylon 5 sourcebooks, but am a massive fan, and some of my players are keen on me setting this new campaign in the B5 world - possibly making them a bunch of Rangers going out on missions.
With the best will in the world, my players are not a cerebral bunch, and the politics and intrigue will probably be beyond most of them, so I need to simplify things a bit for them. no worries, I can manage that..
However, what do you guys think of the B5 sourcebooks? worth the money, or better to make up stats and races etc? I have a fair few ideas for missions (some combat, although I *hope* they'll soon realise combat is pretty deadly in the Travelller universe) and some problem solving ones..
Comments and advice would be very useful
