This is a tough little non-Jump spaceship often seen in Imperial systems performing customs and inspection duties, quarantine enforcement and in it’s main role as an armed response vessel for emergency situations. Based on the same design as the 50Dton Modular Cutter, this is a fixed hull ship. It mounts a battery of lasers and … Continue reading “50 dton Armed Response Cutter”
This ship is only 400Dtons but it is large in size. Using Traveller Book 5: High Guard (via High Guard Shipyard by Andrea Vallance) I designed it as a dispersed structure hull, on the basis that the forward command hull is joined to the main engineering and crew section by a single spine and some … Continue reading “400Dton Modular Jump Cutter”
URGENT NEWS: THIS VESSEL RECALLED DUE TO FEARS OVER STRUCTURAL SAFETY. REPLACED WITH NEWER MODEL. This is a stretched modular cutter designed to haul two standard 30Dton modules. I picture these as being as common as trucks are on modern roads – especially in heavily populated star systems such as Glisten in the Spinward Marches. … Continue reading “In-system Modular Cutter Hauler (Traveller)”
As promised, here are some deck plans for a variety of modules. I have not added a key – yet. They are mostly built from the designs shown in GURPS Traveller: Modular Cutter. However, one credit goes to a guy called Brook West who posted a design of a Recreational Vehicle Module back in 2002 … Continue reading “12 Modules for the 50ton Modular Cutter (Traveller)”
The finished deckplans for a modular cutter. This version has a small cargo hold under the bridge and some spartan crew accommodations. Access to the Lower deck and the dorsal spine crawl space is via overhead and floor hatches. Next up – modules.
Some more WIP shots of one of my favourite of all Traveller vessels – the 50Dton Modular Cutter. I was first introduced to deck plans for this ship in Supplement 7: Traders and Gunboats. In recent years I got the GURPS Traveller supplement dedicated to this vessel. One of the better GURPS Traveller books, it … Continue reading “50 D-ton Modular Cutter (Traveller)”
I thought that I would share with you this delicious recipe for some homemade ravioli. Mrs Woolshedwargamer has a friend from whom she acquired a kilo of blue cheese that I split into 100g lots and froze so we can use it over time rather than pig out on it all at once. First off … Continue reading “Blue Cheese and Walnut Ravioli with a Sage Butter sauce.”
I decided that I had made the Ship’s Boat from my previous post too big by at least 25%. This version is to scale with the Classic Traveller Launch I did some time ago. You can either use this one or the one from my previous post. My 50 ton cutters are definitely on … Continue reading “Ship’s Boat – Rescaled – Classic Traveller”
One of the fellow “Travellers” over at Citizens of the Imperium asked me if I could do a version of one of his ships. It looked quite cool – a mash-up conversion of several vessels. I already had a deck plan for one, but needed a deck plan for the ubiquitous “Ship’s Boat”. So, instead … Continue reading “Ship’s Boat 30-Dtons – Classic Traveller”
The first in a series. I had a bit of fun with this. Wanted to do something a bit different and I don’t think I bent the rules too much. I have not done this vessel in Mongoose Traveller but have stats for both GURPS and High Guard. First off – the ship in GURPS … Continue reading “Tramps #1 The Gypsy Rover”
