Have we had K'kree Player Characters before?

I really can't remember if we had K'kree Player Characters before, in any of the versions of Traveller.

Does anyone know offhand?

Well, we do now. I was looking at Aliens of Charted Space Vol. 1 on drivethrurpg.com Looks interesting. One of the 4 races in the book is K'kree and they have character creation. I might have to get this.

Anyone else check it out yet?
 
The CT K'kree Alien Module has rules for generating K'kree characters - every CT Alien module has rules for character generation, and a lot more info about the race itself than is in the MgT book.

The vast majority of the MgT Alien Races book is equipment, vehicles and spacecraft for each race and page after page of character generation tables. Very little info about the race itself - eg no details of the Zhodani core expeditions.

If this is what you are after then it is a great book, some of the artwork is superb IMHO.

I've looked through the classic K'kree and if I recall, you actually have to have a small herd of characters as well - no solo K'kree. They do not do well by themselves. And take up a LOT of space.

And way back in the day, I had a player play a gung-ho Virushii - I drew up battle armor for him. Not sure how he fit into some of the Traveller ships...
 
Aliens of charted space vol.1 gives you everything you need to play with, as or against K’Kree.

You get history, chargen, equipment & weapons, vehicles and a selection of spaceships, along with K’Kree-specific special rules and beautiful artwork!

The basic idea is that you play as the patriarch of a family or herd, and through him you also control the herd. During chargen you create the herd as well as your character, and the book provides rules and other aids to handle the entire herd as one character, more or less.

They seem like quite the challenge both for the player and the referee, but a rewarding one!

And as a bonus, you also get the above package for Aslan, Vargr and Zhodani :)
