Traveller: Alien Module 1—Aslan


Product Discussion


Greetings;
I have been playing Aslan charaters in Traveller for about 20 years. So I'd like to hear from long time Aslan players. Click-Slash-Smile


Now that's a game I haven't played in decades. I remember well the old Traveller game where you die in Character Creation. Those were fun days. I might just have to check into Traveller again. I heard it use the D20 system now.

Quiklink Interactive did indeed publish a d20 version of Traveller, but most new products use the Traveller system as published by Mongoose.


IF you have the old Digest Aslan resource then you have all you need, unless you like to have a bunch of ship pictures and then old style graph paper deck plans.


I was not a big fan of the system, but I loved the setting. How is Mongoose doing with the fluff?

Well the fluff in the Spinward Marches and Aslan books were much "thinner" than I would have liked, however it is still good as a base line. The fluff in the adventures, Belt Strike and Prison Planet, is pretty good though.


Hmmm. I am not likely to buy adventures. I like to tailor mine to my PCs. Are they more like Paizo's adventure paths where there is useful fluff that could be used to create my own adventures?

If you mean do they leave you room to turn it into your own thing as long as it is based around the core idea of the module, it is by my standards.
