Charts and tables from Starter Traveller rock. Combine 'em with the reformatted COTI tables in the Spinward Marches Campaign for extra groovieness.

Beltstrike and Tarsus go a long ways towards fleshing out the coolest subsector in the game. (Combine them with Adventure 10 and the Avenger CT product line for about as much setting as you'll ever need.)

Dark Nebula looks just about ready to play. Might have to sacrifice a printer cartridge to get those maps out, but there's only one set of single sided counters to hack out.

I've always been confused about what to do with the Traveller aliens... and with adaptions of basic and advanced chargen along with customized world generation sequences and new patron/encounter tables, I feel like I can just pick a random subsector on the map and go to town with it. All the adventures in the Alien modules and in Alien Realms provide a great deal of inspiration.

I finally have High Guard and the surprisingly concise range band rules for space combat from Starter Traveller, too.

Just plain awesome. Wicked bad cool awesome. There's more to CT than I ever imagined.
 
well, just for grins, I did a screen print of a portion of the map and then tossed it into Paintshop Pro, then hit "negative image" which reverses the colors and it came out like...

you might try printing that out in B&W and see what it looks like. There are free tools on the web that'll let you take a PDF and extract the pages to text or to a picture where you could do it better.

NAME
       pdfimages - Portable Document Format (PDF) image extractor
       (version 3.01)

SYNOPSIS
       pdfimages [options] PDF-file image-root

DESCRIPTION
       Pdfimages saves images from  a  Portable  Document  Format
       (PDF)  file  as  Portable  Pixmap  (PPM),  Portable Bitmap
       (PBM), or JPEG files.

       Pdfimages reads the PDF file, scans  one  or  more  pages,
       PDF-file,  and  writes one PPM, PBM, or JPEG file for each
       image, image-root-nnn.xxx, where nnn is the  image  number
       and xxx is the image type (.ppm, .pbm, .jpg).

       NB:  pdfimages  extracts  the  raw image data from the PDF
       file, without performing any additional  transforms.   Any
       rotation,  clipping, color inversion, etc. done by the PDF
       content stream is ignored.

"That's Freakin' Sweet!"

Was the first thing out of my mouth when I looked through the CD I got in the mail today. It also has a small front-and-back card in the CD case of a world (Depot) that looks to go with T5. If that's what T5 is going to be like, it's going to ROCK!
