Except for a couple of days with friends every month, I am a solitaire gamer.
Or solo gamer.
I miss the days when my friends and I would play games almost every weekend, mostly role-playing games like Star Trek or Top Secret. Nowadays we do RPGs once a month.
Because of this we’re limited to sticking with a given game world or system for a few months, like D&D or Hyperlanes or some superhero-based system. Meanwhile, other systems stay on the shelves, collecting dust.
Imagine my surprise when I went to drivethruRPG.com and discovered this:
The Cepheus Engine is another name for the classic Traveller RPG system, and this product allows one to play without a referee/game master in any of the existing versions of Traveller.
Like the one that I have at home from Mongoose Publishing.
At 150+ pages, this looks to be a good way for me to play Traveller… Solo.
We’ll see.
