Traveller General

>After skipping High Guard.
Mang, some of those ships are ugly as shit. The Tigress and nearly all the destroyers. I really like some of the retro ones but so much ugly in the capitals.

So as someone new to traveler, is the newest edition the best jumping off point for new gm/players?

Mongoose 2e? Probably.

What are you prefered third party Traveller expansions/variations m8's?

Mercator is Classic Traveller redesigned to do sailing vessels in the ancient Mediterranean. It's great, even if I'll never get to run it, much less play it.

Slow, conversational style books, not action porn at all, but interesting as potential setting material.
