MGT Only: MgT1 - sources of ship weapons

TheDark

SOC-12
A while back I went through the various 1st edition books on my shelf, including things for non-3I settings, and put together a list of all the ship weapons I could find, and I figured I'd list my sources (not the weapons themselves, because that's a very long list) to see of anyone knew of anything I'd missed. So, here goes:
Traveller Core Rulebook
High Guard
Trillion Credit Squadron

Reign of Discordia
Universe of Babylon 5
Warships of Babylon 5
Signs & Portents Issue 57
Signs & Portents Issue 71

So, are there any weapon sources I've missed for first edition Mongoose Traveller?
 
For ships, I find:
2300AD (Don't know if these overlap HG)
Reign of Discordia (tractor beam!)


I will note that Starports has a number of starport module shipping tonnages.
Cthonian Space: different system drives.
Strontium Dog: Warp Drives.

I'll note that there are several vehicular weapons that could be ship mounted...

Hammers Slammers

So of all of these, I only have the Hammer's Slammers PDF. How do you calculate the weapon stats other than damage?

2300AD (Don't know if these overlap HG)

They don't entirely work together. 2300AD has different mounts and weapon ranges are extremely long by Traveller standards, since each point of Range is 300,000 kilometers, or 6 times the distance that Distant starts for Traveller. It wouldn't be too hard to bash something together, but as-written they're not really compatible.

Reign of Discordia (tractor beam!)

Yep, and the grappler as well.

I will note that Starports has a number of starport module shipping tonnages.
Cthonian Space: different system drives.

I had forgotten there was a version before The Void. The change from Jump Drive to Transit Drive is the only alteration, other than limiting the TL, I think?

Strontium Dog: Warp Drives.

Although the Warp Drives are mechanically just Jump Drives with twice as much range.
