I’m feeling inspired while reading #DeepnightRevelation for the #travellerrpg, an epic 20 year voyage of exploration like no other I’ve seen.
I’m also feeling sad that - in canon - she will return and probably be lost to Virus as Charted Space collapses in the wake of the Rebellion, and all that data and knowledge may be lost.
Yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!

Not really what you are asking for, but I am very fond of the Starship Geomorphs by Robert Pearce. But they are for sections of starships or space stations or ground buildings at that sort of tech level.
Which probably isn't what you mean by "otherworldy elven city."
(Note that while they are designed for the #Traveller Space #ttrpg, they aren't particularly specific to that game or setting.)

I've just finished reading 'The Jägermeister Adventure' from Moon Toad Publishing so here are my first thoughts. I like it enough that it will be my next campaign, as I return to #traveller .

Been working on some Traveller adventure writing set in the wilds around some “extralegal” ports.
And I’ve been really thinking…
What is the difference between a bunch of heavily armed outlaws building a base, and “trading” with their neighbors and a (polity? Empire?) other then scale and treaties?
This Zine looks good and useful for any Sci-fi #ttrpg like #Traveller : https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joieyong/planet-vesta-expansion-system-agnostic-ttrpg-setting?ref=thanks-copy
I check the 8 page preview & backed it.
Traveller Starship and station geomorphs is free in drive thru today. #traveller #ttrpg #osr #geomorphs https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/322962/t5-m03-starship-geomorphs-2
It has only recently dawned on me that artist Mark Harrison who illustrates space opera story "The Out" in #2000AD is the same Mark Harrison who wrote and drew "The Travellers" in #WhiteDwarf forty years ago.
"Syrena, when you've seen one A788899A planet, you've seen them all." Classic!
Mark also illustrated #ThrudTheBarbarian for White Dwarf. (1/2)
Me: [reading Judd's latest post about a Traveller campaign]
Judd: "Humans can get to 3 or so different sub-sectors through alien gates (one on Mars, another on Pluto, another on a comet)"
Me: Mass Effect + Stargate?!? SIGNMEUP!
(I like the mash-up cut of his jib! Read the post!)
Githyanki Diaspora: "Classic Traveller: Mèdecins sans Secteurs"

Reading through books from the "More Reading" list on the #Traveller wiki.
Current book is The Cosmic Computer by H. Beam Piper. I'm just short of halfway through it. I'm really enjoying it, except for where the fact that it's from the early 1960s comes screaming to the foreground with things "but we can't expect the women folk to use logic." Otherwise loving the plot about trying to use an almost religious devotion to a falsity to motivate a community to improve
@Tim_Eagon before shoveling snow I watched RRR, it was hilariously fun but loooooong. I watched rebel moon, so much potential but very rushed it would have worked better as series instead of a movie…. I’m convinced it’s from someone homebrew #traveller campaign
They should do a movie for Traveller as they did for Dungeons and Dragons (which was fabulous) and it wouldn't be a million light years from tonight's movie.
Blog - Video posted with ‘unboxing’ of Power Projection: Fleet for the #TravellerRPG.
Quick reminiscence on the development of the game which that I wrote and demoed a lot for @BITS_Traveller in the early 2000s.

This weekend’s #osr loot:
- A battered but intact version of the #dnd
Expert set. It’s the German Edition and I need it to play #becmi dnd with my kid (9) and his friends. It is also one of the most beautiful dnd versions of all times from my point of view with its peak 80s black and white art.
- A ridiculously cheap #Traveller rules book (German ed). I thought it was a reprint of classic Traveller, but turned out to be Mongoose 1st edition. Traveller = Most confusing publication history ever
#Introduction post:

. . . That should just about cover the bases, I think.
