RE: Traveller FT/DS/SG

I just thought of a way to differentiate Tech:

SG: if the difference in tech level is >2 and < 4 then shift 1 die type
in
favor for the higher for Armor and Fire power.	If >4 then 2 die types. 
D12
goes to 2d8, then 2D10, etc.

DS: >2 <4 then add one to armor and 1 chit to fire. >4 then +2 armor and
2
chits.

Now to test this!

I started doing a Traveller conversion for SG2 years ago. The variant is
on
my web site. Tom Barclay looked at it and he was going to do a better
and
more complete version, with that posted on stargrunt.ca. My
understanding is
that it's not there yet.

I think the biggest problem you'll face with SG2 Traveller is that the
FMA
system doesn't give you a very big span of dice values in which to fit
all
of the tech levels.

To be honest, if I was truly serious about playing Traveller style
games,
I'd try to get hold of the original Striker rules, or perhaps wait to
see
what Striker 3 looks like (assuming it's not just a variant on Striker
2).
