Welcome to the list! Though I would have sworn that GDW never did ANY
playtesting. :-)

Your insight would be excellent. Some others have worked on this but I
don't
know if we have the "definitive" Traveller conversions yet.

>has anybody ever tried a D whatever based system for DS2?

There have been a number of dice based conversions for DS2. I don't mind
the
chits myself, but I can see why some people dislike them. You might want
to
check Jerry Han's mailing list archive site. I don't have the URL off

but I'm sure Jerry will point it out (or you can do a check on a web
search
engine).
