Umm, guys... Starfall Cluster is another supplement due out this year. It is seperate from the Sydymic Outworlds supplement. I'll let th' boss explain when and what comes next from the printing press!

While I know that the Starfall Cluster Sourcebook is on the list of things to print, there may be a few things ahead of it on the schedule. For more details, I'd direct your attention to the latest State of the Imperium address...

As for the Starfall Cluster Sourcebook, we should see a lot of fun stuff when it's released, including a racial write-up for Uplifted Dolphins.
Hope that helps,
Flynn

i was also wondering what had happened to starfall . in earlier release schedules i think it was higher up the queue .
i'm really looking forward to it , do i understand from flynn's post that it's written and ready to go ?

Hirch,
It is my understanding that the core of Starfall Cluster Sourcebook has been written. Martin received submissions from contributors in the early part of last year, including a racial write-up on Dolphins and some basic stat blocks from myself.
Unfortunately, there was a problem with the printer getting the Second Printing of the THB out the door, and by the time that issue got resolved, priorities had changed.
There's a number of documents that I've heard tale are ready or near-ready. The problem lies in those steps in the production process after writing is complete. Artwork is sorely needed, as is layout expertise. Then QLI has to line everything up with the printer. I'm sure it's also limited on available cash needed for creating the printed product, and on the throughput of the printer. And that's just the stuff I can imagine... I'm sure there's more complications I can't even conceive of with my admittedly limited knowledge of d20 publications.
I am confident that QLI has plenty of material to provide the Traveller public for several years, and there's more coming down the pipe. The problem seems to be in getting it into production, and that can be a pretty big hurdle.
Now, just to let you know, this is all speculation, and I do not share any inside information (save that I know QLI has products written and waiting their turn in the queue, which I think is an open secret, so to speak). This is just a guess and could either be dead on, or just as far off base as you can get.
Still, I hope it helps,
Flynn

Please reread my post. Has anyone suggested that it's the same as Sydymic outworlds?

Thanks very much everyone, that answers, all of my questions on the subject. I look forward to the Starfall Cluster's Immenent release. I would have paid more attention to the details given in products like EPIC 1 and 2, but I've barely had the time to skim through them, as I'm currently in the middle of a lot of writing for the soon to be revamped Pocket Empire's site, naturally enough when glancing at the info I thought that the product had already been released.
Once again, Many Thanks from the Commander.
