Still working on my Traveller site. Nothing uploaded yet, but I have about 100 planet maps on 4 sectors. Just have to do the uwp for each, post articles, and do a few solar system maps.

    I'll post some text and start reposting the maps. I have made a few changes.

    Western Hill Fort

    The half-elves and humans decided to build a place in the northwest of part of this area. The built a town and fort and called it Western Hill Fort. They learned early on to not put just humans on night watch as they had no infravision. And to not have torches and lanterns in the two keeps lit at night. Arrows came out of the dark.

    Jolly Keep changed its name from Death Keep when visiting elf bowmen killed some kobolds trying to sneak up for some close range firing arrows at people in the keep.

    North Keep never got in the habit of lighting any lamp or torch at night, their laziness saved them.

    The other keeps were built after the walls went up and the roads were added.

    The folk that live here soon learned to have places for adventurers and travllers to stay, eat, have a few drinks, and purchase items needed for their travels. Storage facilities also sprang up, they try to keep items for a year. Or until proof the person storing items there aren't coming back from their adventure. Then they are either sold at auction, or maybe given to new adventurers who are poorly equipped. And maybe they go somewhere else.

    The local farmers grow apples and oranges for locals and travelers, and grain for the horses.

    Adventurers wanted to retire here, so eleven houses were set aside for them to buy or rent. Some became bored with the idle life. They built, under contract, a place to get together in House 5. Chatting about old times wasn't enough, so the added a basement and had practice illusions added of 4 skeletons. That wasn't enough for some, so a sub-basement was added. It contained an archery range and a melee room where they could keep in practice. Sometimes, if an adventurer went into the sub-basement alone they didn't come back up. Most of them felt that person had left, but some doubted that is what happened.

    They haven't noticed the kobold tunnel. They must be more out of adventuring shape than they realize.

  • [wip] a star ship, my GURPS Space

    I learned that in order to map a part of a galaxy arm, I needed a spreadsheet to keep track of planet names and where I had put them. I had duplicated some without realizing it.

    There are plenty of planet types, base types, etc. to map things out. Here is my web site.
