Free Traveller Cardboard ATV

[Rhialto the Marvelous]

I just clicked on a misnamed link on Marc's... remarkable website. It took me here:

http://www.megaminis.com/TRAV.htm

Not sure how well known this is, if at all? They also have a nice color starship chart.

All this is to do with the aborted (why?) Trav minis project, right?

Traveller ship minis are back on line from Ad Astra: link

The ATV model has been around for a while and pops up on the boards occasionally. There are several sites that offer paper models that might be of use in Traveller. Here's two: link and link

Cool an AHL model at long last!

Must get one of those. I see there is no scale mentioned but that's no problem provided they keep it consistent.
I was thinking of making an AHL out of balsa or something to be the same scale as the Mega Minis free trader. It's nice to give the players a sense of scale once in a while.

Scale is apparently going to be 1:7200. More info at this link under "Power Projection"/"General Discussion"/"What it's About"

The AHL doesn't look quite right to me.

You have a good eye. It's too skinny across the "shoulders"

That's right! The AHL felt "off."

Man, ever since I bought the AHL game, that's been my favorite starship... the box illustration looks a bit dated now, but at the time it was spectacular.

Which one is the central ship in the top picture? I'm guessing from the size, it's the Plankwell?
