Our Kickstarter Campaign is now live!

Traveller is a licensed card game adaptation of Marc Miller’s classic science-fiction universe. Hit the mains of the Third Imperium in search of riches and adventure!

Captain one of Traveller’s iconic vessels. Fend off troublesome opponents, endure the onslaught of a hostile and uncaring universe, stave off bankruptcy and beat your rivals to 20 Victory Points!

Our game is designed for 2-4 players, but the mechanics allow for solo play as well. Check out our campaign for details on backer levels, future products and more!

I'm sorry to point this out, but the Beowulf illustration is disturbing: it lacks a full chunk of its aft.

Is that final or provisional art?

It's provisional now...

Up to this point, probably hundreds of people have seen that, including Marc Miller, and nobody else noticed (or said anything). But when we're wrong, we're wrong.

So we had it fixed!

Isn't that common for most free traders after combat?

Congrats and good luck!

I booked Middle Passage on this trip

Depends who they mix it up with!

Thanks for coming along for the ride! We're about 75% funded with over two weeks to go. We're cautiously optimistic, but mostly we're humbled by the support we've gotten so far.

New art is nice, but, Vilani sticks-in-the-mud aside, even the common classes have some variations.

Mid passage for me too. Also can you tell the steward I have dietry requirements.

 

[LeperColony]

We're fully funded! Thanks to everyone who has come by and taken a look, and even more appreciation to anyone who has pledged.

There's still a week to go, plenty of time to book passage if you haven't already!

 

[Spenser TR]

Congrats on this! No easy thing to bring it all together; the game itself or a campaign like this.

 

[LeperColony]

Thanks, you're not kidding. And even so, now begins the real work!

Just added the post: Traveller Customizable Card Game - An Interview with Jeff Yin to my blog. It might be informative to those who, like me, have never played a CCG or just want an update on what's happening now that the initial funding goal has been met.

 

[LeperColony]

We have fully funded! Thanks everyone for your support!

Now the real work begins...

 

[Baltech Budapest]

Excellent news. Glad I backed. Looking forward to the final product. It will be worth waiting for

If you missed the Kickstarter campaign, there's still a chance to get in as a late backer during the survey period, ending 2/7.

Or infact 7/2 :CoW:

 

[GypsyComet]

Just took care of the add-ons survey, and now will wait for July.

Any idea when add-on costs will hit a credit card? The survey was vague.

I'm surprised the survey wasn't more clear, because we had to give a specific date to BackerKit.

In any case, it's February 8.

The survey period has concluded. It is no longer possible to add to your pledge or change your pledge.

However, if you had backed in excess of a pledge level during the campaign, but you did not complete the survey, don't worry, we aren't going to just pocket the difference.

We'll work with you to make the adjustments manually to see you get the rewards you intended. Going forward, we will be reaching out to those backers who did not or could not complete the survey.

If you are a Patron or TAS Member, we've sent out some information to facilitate your custom content. This is an ongoing process, so feel free to send us any questions.

In the meantime, if you need to change your shipping address, you can always do so through BackerKit. Or, alternatively, you may reach us here on CotI, Facebook, Twitter @travellerccg, our website (work in progress), or on the Kickstarter page.

The list of species appearing as Crew in the Aliens of the Imperium expansion pack is:

Aslan

Beree

Bwap

Darrian

Droyne

Hiver

Hhkar

Lamura Teg/Gav (single card)

Ursa

Vargr

Virushi

Vegan

In choosing these species, we tried to represent both the Major and Minor races, as well as some that were prominent in the sources, along with a few others a bit more obscure. In the case of the Lamura, it will be their first official art.

Don't see your favorite on the list? Hopefully we'll get to them in a future set.

We also wanted to provide a first look at one of the aliens, so here's the Hhkar pilot!
