I'm a fan of the Mongoose adaption of Judge Dredd, the long-running British sci-fi comic. They put out two versions, a D20 version, and the version I prefer - the Traveller version. Mongoose no longer has the license to Judge Dredd, but paper copies of the book can still be found. I don't believe there's … Continue reading Judge Dredd for Traveller: A custom fillable character sheet
The RPG company Mongoose had the license for the Judge Dredd comic for a few years, and released both D20 and Traveller versions. I'm sort of fond of the Traveller version. I even made a fillable version of their character sheet. I wasn't entirely happy with their version, so I decided to try making my … Continue reading WIP: Character Sheet for the Traveller version of the Judge Dredd RPG
I recently ran a one shot of Strontium Dog, the sci-fi bounty hunter game from Mongoose Games. It's based on the old 2000AD comic series. It's the older version that uses the Traveller ruleset, not the current WOIN version. For the game, I made five pre-generated characters. They're slightly modified versions of the ones in … Continue reading Strontium Dog: Pre-generated characters for Traveller
In a previous post, I discussed creating your own custom fillable RPG character sheets in PDF, including adding custom scripts to perform calculations. This post is specifically designed for those creating Traveller or Cepheus Engine character sheets. For the Traveller/Cepheus Engine sheets I've made in the past, I've created a series of JavaScript code snippets … Continue reading Custom Calculations for Traveller/Cepheus PDF character sheets
Strontium Dog was a long running comic series that appeared in the British comic weekly 2000 AD. The premise was that in the 22nd century, mutant humans are a hated minority in the galaxy. A handful of mutants work as bounty hunters for the Search/Destroy agency, hunting down dangerous fugitives. In 2008, Mongoose put out … Continue reading Strontium Dog: Character Sheets for the Traveller Bounty Hunter RPG
I've been playing around with creating my own version of a character sheet for the Cepheus Engine, the open source version of Traveller. It's based on my old Hostile character sheet. It uses a nice clean Eurostile font that I hope gives it a futuristic feel. There's a wound tracker that will automatically provide boxes … Continue reading Cepheus Engine: Fillable Character Sheet – BETA VERSION
I've been enjoying the first issue of the Cepheus Journal, a fanzine for the Cepheus Engine RPG. They've just put out their first issue. Looking forward to whatever they do next. It can be downloaded here: https://cepheusjournal.com/downloads/
The Artifact A scenario for Omega 99, the Cepheus Engine/Traveller setting based on Space 1999. Two days ago, an Omega science expedition returned from the system Klein-805, led by the scientist Professor Winfield Goddard. He and his team spent weeks exploring the ruins of an alien civilization, and returned with an artifact for further analysis. … Continue reading The Artifact – a scenario for Omega 99
For my upcoming Omega 99 (Space 1999 with Traveller rules) games, I've made some pregenerated character PDFs based on the characters from the TV show. The sheets use the custom Omega 99 character sheet I've posted previously. And before anyone asks, I don't yet have stats for Maya. I took a lot of the background … Continue reading Omega 99 – Pregenerated Characters
This is an update to a previous post, where I posted a character sheet for Omega 99, the Cepheus/Traveller setting based on Space 1999. I've noticed a small error in the calculations, when it's creating the UPP that appears on the character sheet and the table tent. Here is the revised version: Omega99_CharSheet_TableTent_Revised
