General Traveller with other systems?

[Spinward Scout]

Who's running Traveller with a different system?

I remember someone mentioning running Traveller with Doctor Who. I'd like to kniw how that went.

I also heard about someone running Traveller with Savage Worlds. I wondered how that went.

Have you played Traveller with these systems or others?

What do you mean by played Traveller?
Used a Third Imperium or derivative setting?
Used Traveller tropes such as jump drive in a bespoke setting.

If I use BRP to play in my version of the Third Imperium am I playing Traveller? How about the T2k1e rules to run T:2300?

Is T:2300 playing Traveller? What if I use the modern MgT2e version.

What about if I use the CT rules to run a modern action-adventure game, Am I playing Traveller? How about late 19800s CoC using CT rules?

I regularly use the adventure Death Station to try out different rule systems. The dice step and dice pool variants of the YZE, PbtA derived games, BRP based games - all of them in the last couple of years.

I've tried Push SRD and Zozer's "Action Dice". I enjoyed Action Dice for quick games, and PUSH wasn't awful. In the next year or so, I hope to start a game of Microscope with a Travelleresque setting, and use AD for the personal scale roleplaying that occurs therein.

I have never tried to port the 3i to another rule system. I never played GURPs or Hero versions of Traveller. I stuck to CT and then moved to MgT when I felt the need to play in the 3i. Now I have done the opposite, used the CT rules to play in other settings. I used CT rules to play Morrow Project, TW2k, and even a Cyberpunk like setting. Now with the Cepheus publishers I have tried out one's fantasy setting and another's SciFI setting and a Modern War and even a Western 1890 setting for fun. But again, never felt the need to post the 3i over to any other core rules.

I've done conversion notes and occasionally solo-tested various Traveller adventures for Alternity.
