There have also been <a href="http://wanderinggamist.blogspot.com/2012/02/fantasy-traveller-review-of-literature.html" rel="nofollow">a number</a> of attempts at using the Traveller core for fantasy; I got through writing up <a href="http://wanderinggamist.blogspot.com/2012/03/fantasy-traveller-career-tables.html" rel="nofollow">careers</a> and <a href="http://wanderinggamist.blogspot.com/2012/02/fantasy-traveller-arcane-magic.html" rel="nofollow">magic</a>, but never got around to worldbuilding, treasure, trade, starting equipment, or playtesting.Johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08586249502818922886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-16989566561026357532012-09-02T10:26:20.780-04:002012-09-02T10:26:20.780-04:00I've always loved the Traveller character gene...I've always loved the Traveller character generation system, and would love to see a fantasy game that generates experienced (capable) adventurers using these rules. In fact, that was to be (still is?) the subject of my next post.DrBarglehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06683770320671028815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-37894642838066046172012-09-02T09:23:49.418-04:002012-09-02T09:23:49.418-04:00Thanks for the mention!@ScrivenerB: there are meta...Thanks for the mention!<br><br>@ScrivenerB: there are metal ships, but they're of a high enough tech level that most ships are still wooden.joseph browninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16274622778419965618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-81380858569169918722012-09-02T08:38:06.485-04:002012-09-02T08:38:06.485-04:00It's an interesting approach.
