Must Have
Here is a sample of the clear/ concise character construction presented in the core rule book. In addition to the core rule book the next most important thing is the Traveller Referee’s screen.
Rating 10/10
absolute necessity
This screen is oversized and in clear print which makes it an absolute pleasure to use in the throes of a game. Between this and the rule book your game and group of adventurers are ready to enter the far future.
The core rule book gives you everything you need to get started but to really enter the Traveller Universe you have to get the supplemental books. The first one that I recommend is the Central supply catalog. This great looking tome gives you everything you need to really bring your character to life and to keep him/her alive ine the dangers of space and strange new worlds.

Join the traveler Universe in style with the Central supply catalog. Now that you have all these great toys you need new ships to carry all your stuff. This is where High Guard steps in. This great looking book details all sorts of ships from 100 tons to hundreds of thousands of tons, Both military and civilian. If you cannot find the ship you want in that list it also provides the tools needed to make your own ship. I did this a few times to get the hang of it and it actually wrks pretty well and rendered great results.
