Traveller5 Traveller

The Traveller Science-Fiction Role-Playing Game System, Fifth Edition

This set of PDFs is the culmination of four years of work, play-testing, revision, and even redesign, in order to make the Traveller5 game system the best portrayal of the Travelleruniverse of the far future we could possibly make.

Much of the work has focused on correction of errata and typographical errors. More work concentrated restating concepts that were poorly, or faultily, expressed. We also upgraded some of our artwork.

Most obvious of our changes is the reformatting to three Big Black Books. When Travellerwas originally published in 1977, its format was three 48-page 5.5 x 8.5 inch digest format books, mimicking the format of the only real role-playing game out there at the time: wood-grain box Dungeons & Dragons.

Those three Little Black Books each had a concentration:

Book 1 was Characters and Combat;

Book 2 was Starships; 

Book 3 was Worlds and Adventures. 

That division of subject matter has been tested over time, and we returned it with Traveller5.10 in order to make each the three Big Black Books intuitive in their coverage.

Each Book is indexed for access to the subject matter, but in addition, we have provided a comprehensive Table of Contents at the front: by comprehensive, we means that it covers all three books for easy reference. Adjacent to the Table of Contents is a Table of Charts for the specific volume: listing the full page charts and tables for easier access.

That would be unnecessary because it's still in print

There are no bookmarks in the pdfs? I downloaded again to doublecheck. I'm not the only one who has left this feedback. Did you download after the last file update in 2019?

Is there any chance of getting bookmarks in the PDFs, please? I got them in the current Bundle of Holding and none of the the three PDFs have any, unless I am missing something....

Well if you mean from 5.09 to 5.10 then id say a lot. I had 5.09 and it was tough to figure out. 5.10 is much improved. Give it a look over.

Is there any way to make this PDF bookmarkable? Its greyed out in Foxit Reader, and with the horrific inaccuracies of the TOC I really need this ability.

Figured it out, print this pdf to a pdf print spool, like foxit reader. The new saved version will let you bookmark it normally.

The Education part of the character generation is convoluted as hell.. It says nowhere that your major gives you 4 skill points and your minor gives you 2.. except it is mentioned in the example.

then the example says the character got 3 waivers, but the rules say years with waivers get no skill.. so the only year they gained a skill was the freshman year.. so where does this 4 skill points in Psychology and 2 points in Robotics come from? XXX?

ok - i see where the major and minor come from on that horrible table, but it still doesnt match the example since the rules say waiver years are worth no skill pts.

The tables need to seriously be alphabetized. For instance, on the Homeworld Chart, the trade classifications are jumbled making you have to bounce around the Homeworld Skill list. Why not alphabetize the trade classifications so you just start at the top of the Homeworld Skill chart and scan down.

For instance, Magash has trade classification of Va Hi Na In Cp, meaning you have to bounce all over the Homeworld Skills table. Instead, list the classifications as Cp Hi In Na Va. SO much easier.

I want to remark that this is one of the most poorly-edited RPGs I have ever seen. There is also an authoritarian top-down structure that nobody wants to criticize or they lose their pecking-order in the Traveller fandom. The Citizens of the Imperium forum has even threatened anyone who says T5 is "not a game" or is "unplayable" with an immediate ban. You are condescendingly told to be "constructive", but errata are not listened to, playtesters were not listened to, so what's the point?

After four years of discussion, and never certain if it reaches the deaf ears of M.M., this game disagrees about the length of a combat round, saying on p. 176 that it's "about a minute" but on p. 177 it's "15 seconds". They get it wrong on such a simple basic thing, imagine how complex issues might be handled.

More democracy, more pairs of eyes, and better response, please!

Not to sound ungrateful, are you ever going to fix the Table of Contents? When I enter the pages for Gunmaker and Sophonts, for a quick example, I absolutely do not get to those places in the PDF. Which makes the TOC pretty much, at best, useless, and at worst, why even have one?

Question: for drivethrurpg.. Will "Traveller5 Core Rules" become available in printed format as the printed version has become very hard to find! And people seem to be selling it for very ridiculous prices on Ebay and such...

I had a copy of the 1st book and sold it off, I have to say, the Mongoose version is way better and easier than this load of $^#%^!
Personally I couldn't see spending another dime on this thing.

I was involved in the beta, and supported the Kickstarter. We attempted to play T5 when it finally arrived, and found that the rules for character creation were so unclear (in large part due to typographic errors) that we were literally unable to play. (We made assumptions based on earlier versions of Traveller, which allowed us to at least complete character creation, but continued to find inconsistencies as we attempted play. We had multiple very experienced players and referees, and very nearly all the earlier material to draw upon.)
I am aware that at least one set of errata has been released since; can anyone confirm that it has been incorporated? I recommend avoiding this unless at least the initial errata has been incorporated.
Nevertheless, Traveller has an outstandingly rich setting and I highly recommend earlier versions (Mongoose, classic or MegaTraveller, in that order).

A .pdf version 5.09 may make some things more clear. However, as I remarked elsewhere, they are inconsistent about the length of the combat round from one page to the next! In four years of trying!

I think it is unfortunate that original customers are expected to buy a completely new edition just to keep up with the original errata. I think many people will already be turned off by the original printing. There is nor enough new material to warrant buying a new book: a few extra pictures. The index is nice but is only helpful for a printed edition (which will undoubtedly cost more than the original edition. I'll probably buy the print edition, but I think it could have been done better the first time (over the course of 10 years of supposed editing).

I am not sure what you are referring to. I was able to download it for free, through DriveThruRPG. It says "Purchaser" beneath your name, so I am presuming that you would have the same benefit.

Of course, you may be talking about something else entirely. If so, pardon me. :)

I am referring to the upcoming hardcopy version which will, most certainly, not be a free gift. I know that the kickstarter brought in tons of money (over $300,000 USD), but I don't think FFE will be handing out free copies. Perhaps they will offer a discount. They have not said yet.

I do own the first hardcopy edition of the book and have added all of the errata to the book myself (by writing in the corrections and clarifications by hand). By the way, studying the errata is a wonderful way of learning the game.

I guess I might be kind of cheap but I don't know if I can or will spend another $75 dollars. I don't mean to introduce any bitterness at all. I feel that this revised PDF does not contain a whole lot that wasn't already in the book, errata or finished CDROM

I bought the hardcover on a whim because I knew that name when I was going to Brooklyn game store. Mind you I never played any of the traveller games before alone trying to make a character is almost near bloody impossible!! For example after you finish your first term as an officer and you go into the reserves are you able to go back to school could you do I just roll for another career nothing clear i. this book. NM I expect to by this PDF now $35 PDF when I have the totem of hardcover Edition right on my dining room table.

I have almost all the Mongoose Traveller 2nd edition stuff and I have to say FFE is terrible compaired to it. MT2e is far superior and less of a headache to create stuff. IMO

Imagen escaneada
Estos productos se crearon escaneando una edición original impresa. La mayoría de los libros más antiguos están en este formato de imagen escaneada, ya sea porque nunca tuvieron un archivo original de diseño digital o porque el editor ya no lo tiene disponible.

Para crear las ediciones de descarga en PDF, cada página se ha procesado con un software de reconocimiento óptico de caracteres (OCR) para tratar de descifrar el texto impreso. El resultado se coloca de forma invisible debajo de la imagen de cada página escaneada para permitir búsquedas de texto. Sin embargo, es muy probable que los textos de libros que estén impresos sobre un fondo gráfico o en fuentes escritas a mano no sean reconocidos por el software OCR y, por tanto, no formen parte de los resultados de las búsquedas. Además, algunos libros más grandes pueden ser reorganizados para que se adapten al sistema y puede que no tengan ese fondo que permite búsquedas.

Para los libros impresos, hemos realizado escaneos de alta resolución de una copia física original del libro. Esencialmente, hemos remasterizado digitalmente el libro. Por desgracia, la calidad resultante en tales libros no es tan alta. Es el problema que tiene hacer una copia de una copia. El texto se puede leer, pero las ilustraciones empiezan a verse oscuras, pixeladas o carentes de tonos de gris. Las fotos pueden desarrollar patrones moiré. Especificamos claramente qué títulos impresos provienen de imágenes escaneadas de libros, para que puedas realizar una decisión de compra informada acerca de la calidad de lo que vas a recibir.

Estos ebooks fueron creados a partir de los archivos originales de diseño digital y, por tanto, se pueden realizar búsquedas en todo su texto. Además, el tamaño de archivo tiende a ser más pequeño que el de los libros de imágenes escaneadas. LA mayoría de los libros más nuevos están en este formato. Tanto las versiones para descarga como para impresión de estos libros deberían tener una gran calidad.
