The font and color scheme are very much on point. Traditionally fuel would be marked, but everyone knows all the nooks available are used for fuel, so I don't mind the omission.

The Traveller landscape is fractured enough as is. I can't envision a better future for it with this addition.

Meme lookup: "Dear area residents" (ttrpg.network)
 

I saw a meme here on Lemmy and can't seem to find it again. Or on Google. It's a 3-panel format that goes like this:

Image Text
IMG 1 A bullet may have your name on it
IMG 2 But a grenade says only "to whom it may concern"
Ripley w/ flamethrower "Dear area residents"

Anyone seen it?

Largest "Small Craft"

Currently working on designs for some larger "small craft". variant Shuttles, a Marine Dropship, and a larger Marine Assault Carrier. The dropship is 40 dton, and the shuttle variants are 100, 200, and 500 dtons, the assault carrier is probably 400 dtons. What is the range of small craft in your Traveller universe?
