I am a long time fan of Traveller and other classic science fiction backgrounds, even if I started in this hobby with Runequest back in the 80's. Currently absent from roleplaying tables, but I still game solo.
Current games
D100/BRP, GURPS, Savage Worlds, EABA.
Location
Here
Blurb
Also interested in military history, science and technology and several flavours of r'n'r.
Worlds Beyond (1989; not in print and good luck trying to find it second hand) had a chapter on starship design (including discussion of FTL drive) and another on starship combat.
