Antonio Leonardo P December 13, am UTC. William H December 17, pm UTC. Yes, it is different, in content and in layout. This is the little black books from the Traveller boxed set. There are a number of minor wording changes in The Traveller Book, which was later, and it can result in some discrepancies in play.

Also, the layout is on classic digest size 5. Further, this has the margin notes for the errata, with the errata in the appendix. Filippo Maria O November 28, pm UTC. John D December 12, pm UTC. Yes, I know - cover art serves little purpose in an ebook, and classic Traveller books often had mostly plain black covers anyway, but still…. Benjamin S December 29, pm UTC. Ms S November 19, pm UTC. Shawn M December 12, pm UTC. Same question. Would greatly prefer the edition rules because the scale of the game is very different smaller ships, less Imperium influence, etc. Jeffery L December 13, am UTC. I will be third on the list, would like to see this in 77 edition to match my LBB.

Brendan F December 15, pm UTC. I'd be interested in this too, I'm looking to preserve my original books from further use. C January 11, pm UTC. Going to pick this up, but would also love to see CT77 getting the same treatment. Chris J January 18, pm UTC. Sign me up for '77 too please. As well as a PoD of Starter Traveller! Brandon G October 30, pm UTC. Miller, can you please make The Traveller Adventurer available in POD? Marc M December 12, pm UTC. Geoff H December 12, pm UTC. Brandon G December 12, pm UTC. I will drop it into the shopping basket, maybe the update will post before I run the check out.

Shaun S May 24, pm UTC. I would be very pleased to buy PoD copies of The Traveller Book and The Traveller Adventure. Timothy B. Benjamin F. Faithful recreation of the LBBs that incorporates the errata is an easy way, incredibly useful for a classic traveller campaign. Hopefully the next LWB that will be the classic books retypeset with formatting done better do as well as this one! See All Ratings and Reviews. Browse Categories. Teach Your Kids to Game.

Traveller , sometimes referred to as Classic Traveller, is the original edition and was published between and This edition is known for its " little black books "; most of the rules and supplements came as mostly black with a single offset color. The Adventures and supplements for this edition start in and advance through This article refers to specific information about this edition, for information about the game in general please refer to the Versions of Traveller. The game system introduced a unique character generation system that helped it to stand out from other role-playing games of the time. Players took their characters through a career development path usually in the military where the player rolled for different assignments and gained extra skills, rank and retirement benefits. Leaving a character in service for longer before the game would lead to more skills and beginning cash but could also mean that basic attributes such as strength would begin to degrade with old age.

Characters could die or be injured before a player finished rolling them up. The game became known for this character generation system. The original release of Traveller contained three books — Characters and Combat , Starships , and Worlds and Adventures. This set of rules contains everything needed to play Traveller. In , GDW took advantage of a need to reprint the core rules to make revisions. This "second edition" both added and removed details and incorporated errata printed in Mercenary for the original edition. The second edition was repackaged in a folio edition The Traveller Book in , along with additional material including a few added rules, a special introduction for new players, two adventures, and details on what was becoming the Official Traveller Universe OTU.

Finally, in , GDW released Starter Traveller , intended at giving a younger audience a streamlined and simpler set of Traveller rules. This release was published as a boxed set with the three main little black books. This version used most of the text from the edition but simplified some of the more complex rules, including a simplified space combat system that uses range bands instead of 2D vectors. Between and , GDW released five more rule books in the same little black book format using varying colors in the covers to set them apart.

These gave more detailed rules on character generation along with more detailed design rules for warships, star systems and robots. During this same period, GDW released 13 numbered adventure books as little black books. They also released 6 numbered "Double Adventure" books in a similar format but bound back to front; the reader would have to flip the book over to read the second adventure. These adventures were intended to be standalone issues, not necessarily part of an overall campaign. In GDW published "The Traveller Adventure" , a full campaign in the same format and in the same style as The Traveller Book. GDW also released 13 numbered supplements in a similar format to the adventures, with a different color scheme on the cover of each. Some of these are intended to reduce a referee's workload by providing adventure hooks, pregenerated characters, and predesigned ships, but others include the first details published about the Official Traveller Universe OTU , including two full sectors.

In addition, GDW published 8 Alien Modules, each detailing a different race. The last three of these were published in and , putting them well within the MegaTraveller time period. Classic Traveller was replaced in by a new version called MegaTraveller which not only radically revised the mechanics of the game with a standardized task based system, but also the format of publication in folio-sized books with full color cover art. The background setting timeline was advanced several years into a shattered Third Imperium fighting a Civil War. Etymology: The word Traveler and its British English orthographic variation Traveller refer to individuals who travel. In practice this refers to tourists, nomads, gypsies, exiled or expatriate peoples, and the like. In the Traveller RPG universe , it refers to sophonts who travel the stars , a special group of beings with an adventurous spirit.

At the beginning there was only some very basic background material to the Traveller universe. It appeared that like most other RPG games of the time, individual game masters would develop their own universe to adventure in. It was originally intended to be a flexible, multi-purpose, general ruleset. As more adventures and supplements were developed, the rich character of the standard Traveller universe began to evolve.
