Traveller Week concludes! Through Wednesday, May 21 we revive the August 2022 Traveller5 Bundle featuring the 2014 Fifth Edition of Traveller. In 2012 Traveller designer Marc Miller marshalled a large team of longtime Travellers to tackle a be-all, end-all edition that covered every era and all tech levels. Funded in a spectacular US$295K Kickstarter campaign, Traveller5 arrived two years later as a mammoth 888-page rules set.
T5 adds tons of new, player-requested features and revisions: technology beyond Tech Level 15, new character careers, clones, chimeras, robots, computers, artificial intelligence, and rationalized Psionics. Evaluate equipment system quality with QREBS (the Quality, Reliability, Ease, Bulk/Burden, and Safety system), and experience the new Flux dice system that increases variability in skill checks. Dive into a whole series of easy-to-use Makers: GunMaker, VehicleMaker, ArmorMaker, RobotMaker, SophontMaker, ThingMaker. You can map star systems and worlds, but don’t feel like you must; the new MOARN caveat (Map Only As Really Necessary) streamlines mapping. If someone asks you, “In Traveller5, can you…?” Yes. Just, yes.
Pay just US$17.95 to get all three titles in this revived offer’s T5 Collection (retail value $69) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the complete three-volume Traveller5 Core Rules 3-Book Set version 5.10, T5 Starships and Spacecraft, and T5 Gazelle-Class Close Escorts.
This revived August 2022 Traveller5 offer heads back out to the Galaxy’s Barren Arm (mysteriously devoid of all sophonts) and vanishes again Wednesday, May 21.

This final revival has ended Traveller Week, our sequence of six Bundle of Holding revivals showcasing the many eras of Traveller. This week-long event centered on Traveller Day, celebrated each year on May 1 in recognition of the cover copy on the 1977 First Edition of Traveller: “This is Free Trader Beowulf, calling anyone… Mayday, Mayday…” We launched this sequence with a new special deal on Shannon Appelcline’s comprehensive 298-page history of the Traveller game system, This is Free Trader Beowulf. Earlier in the week we brought back the Classic Traveller Imperium Tour, Gamelords Traveller, FASA Traveller, Mongoose Traveller 2E, and Traveller Pirates of Drinax.
