Salutations and hello, fellow Travellers!

[Captain Seto]

I've never once played the pen(cil) and paper Traveller game, and my first exposure to it was through the abandonware "Megatraveller 2: Quest for the Ancients" PC game (I never thought I'd find a game so enjoyable, when it used moving pixels to depict my crew crawling across a planet! So much detail, so many things to do; places to go, people to see, menacing goo to stop... :rofl.

The reason I'm here is that I've been looking for larger versions
of
these
covers,
and happened to come across the site. I hope to gain a lot more insight into the setting and history of Traveller and hope my potential new friends here can help me in my "quest..."

Mabuhay!

welcome aboard to the boards.

I never played the traveller PC game, but is sounds cool. I can't help with your cover though.

 

[Captain Seto]

Thank you for the welcome, Rover! The PC games have the depth of the original, but the graphics are sorely lacking (not surprising, given the antiquated technology compared to the Imperium's!).

As for the covers, well, I didn't exactly have high expectations in that regard!

 

[Colonel Mac]

Welcome, Cap'n!

I, too, lack the info you are looking for but I am sure there is someone around here that can assist you in your quest. Great bunch of people here.

Again, welcome and make yourself at home.

Are those the Japanese covers of the MegaTraveller rules, Knightfall adventure, and Rebellion sourcebook?

They look like TNE covers, don't they? Or Challenge magazine covers... I've got no clue. But yes, that's Japanese katakana there. Good catch.

Will this help?

*Sigh* no, I guess not.

I had some links to the Japanese Traveller sites, some had pics of the covers but the links I have found so far don't have pics. Maybe someone else has seen them.

Egads! I go into cold sleep for just a little while, and suddenly; REPLIES!

Yup, they are indeed.

That's where I found the covers in the first place, unfortunately. I e-mailed the fellow, asking if he'd be amenable to providing me with larger scans of just those three covers, but to no avail.
