Errata for Traveller Core Rulebook

[Greylond]

The -2 DM for a Standard Hull is on page 137 under Atmospheric Operations.

Yes, I know. The reason I brought this up is that someone over at Mongoose's forums is insisting that the original author of that section didn't intend for the -2 DM to be in the rules and is saying that the Errata should take it out.

No, the -2DM for piloting a standard-hull ship in atmosphere is correct according to me, anyway.

 

[Greylond]

Thanks for answering that!

Man, if I could give out Rep here, I would!

Yes, that and that standard hull ships of 1G accel could launch from size 8- planets (2G for the rest); distributed not so much, they would need help.

AND, since even standard hulls have to glide in to land, NO one lands on an airless world. Ya just make craters.

Best thing is to take your exacto knife and cut out those rule sections and throw them away

jeez, dude over at the MgT forums seems to think that somehow Landing is different from Flying in Atmo. Thinks you land by going straight down and therefore the -2 DM doesn't apply....
