Grand Fleet

[Ladegard]

I don't suppose there's a master index of where the ships mentioned in this could be found, is there?

There is a plan to follow up with a set of ship designs and associated notes. Format is stil being worked out.

Thanks.

Will there be any cover art for Grand Fleet?

If so, when, even roughly?

Is anyone prepared to review Grand Fleet based on a thorough examination of the supplement? Is anything new added? Many of the "big questions" mentioned in the sales pitch are answered in other products already, such as Imperial Squadrons.

I found enough new material to make the pdf well worth the price. I've got three players in my T20 game with ex-navy players who really need a resource like this. Kudos to Mr. Dougherty and Frier!

It looks like Grand Fleet ($8.50) covers much of the same ground as TA-7 Fighting Ships ($4.00 w/subscription) with only 11 more pages but twice the price. If you have TA-7, is Grand Fleet worth it?

It is most definitely worth it IMHO as it covers a lot more than the intro to TA-7 does.

Fighting Ships is mostly just that, ships, with a little bit covering the IN. Grand Fleet instead covers the IN indepth but doesn't have ship stats.

Legal issues about my asking, that is - if there aren't then the question stands...

So your not going to upload a sample of Grand Fleet then? How about pasting up TOC, introduction, and a couple of pages from the body of the text?

To sell a pure PDF that can't be examined in a store with no sample, well...

Does this help?

The editing and organization of this product is good. I must say, however, the first read left me feeling a bit flat. I kept getting the sense that I was reading a detailed outline or extended glossary of terms - encyclopedia entries maybe? It lacked a depth of personality (story) I have come to expect in Traveller products. The ending was as abrupt as Halo2.

I think that someone who owns Imperial Squadrons and reads these forums will not find a great deal of new content.
