Aliens & Arseteroids
Space. The final frontier. These are the failings of the Galactic Arseholes. Their never ending mission, to seek out strange obscure rules, to bicker endlessly over 6 time zones and to boldly fuck up like no one has ever fucked up before!
This is the primary page for the Aliens & Arseteroids campaign as run by Tristan.

Character Creationplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigCharacter Creation
[Character Sheet] [A better one...]
There are many options for character creation.
We'll be using 2nd Edition Mongoose Traveller, which can be found here.
Stats
Stat generation should be 3d6 rolled six times for each characteristic, dropping the lowest. Then you can choose to keep the group, or re-roll the entire group. You may choose to re-roll the group a third and final time, but whatever you roll then is the stats that you must use.
Ship to Ship Combatplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigShip Combat
Before the battle two main things needs to happen. 1. The distance between the PC ship and other targets needs to be determined, and 2. PCs onboard need to have a ship combat roll assigned to them
Initiative
Initiative is rolled by the Pilot.
Travel Timesplugin-autotooltip__default plugin-autotooltip_bigTravel Times
There are two ways of calculating the travel time. One from Mongoose 2nd Ed. and One from MegaTraveller. I'm not certain which we would use, but they are both rather complex, one much more so.
Travel Calculations
The following calculations can be used to work out specific travel times if required
