From the Attic: Traveller Errata

For those of you with older editions of Traveller you can find the latest errata here. It is good that Far Future on top of this and made good use of the fanbase. And yes I do think that 68 pages overall and 50 pages for the core rules was excessive back in the day when I originally found much of this on the GEnie online service.

GEnie was the original haunt of Traveller on-line fandom. Back then there were hourly charges so most of developed hit and run techniques to minimize the charge. You log on, dump the file listing, and log off. Read it or print it out, pick out what you wanted. Log back on, get what you wanted, and log off.

Believe or not I still have a copy of on such dump. It migrated as part of my traveller archive from computer to computer as I upgraded. It dates from February 1993. You can download the full file from here.
