Plop101, and gentlemen;
IIRC there has been at least one instance where the Brown Dwarf was used in an adventure:
Set in the MT game era, Traveller's Digest 21, pp17-26; The Pirates of Tetrini; by Greg Videll.
Starting at Cossor (22424/Zarushagar), PCs are involved in a mission for the Duchy of Oasis (1122-time frame) to investigate a possible Pirate base.
Includes UWP maps of Wolf(K) and Oasis(L) subsectors.
The Brown dwarf occupies a key "em[pty space hex" allowing the raiders to cross a small reft (of some 6+ empty space hexes to spinward) in the Wolf Subsector.
Unfortunately, it says nothing IIRC about the "frequency" of such bodies. As with the estimable & honorable Mr Larsen Whipsnade's line of thought, I would for MTU purposes have them slightly more numerous than giant Younger stars.
There may even be small moons/ planetary bodies about this "dwarf" proto-star.
Here in this adventure, on one that is mostly ice, the pirates make their lair.
thank you for your time, gentlemen.
heretically yours,
