This is where my Traveller adventure began.
The system has more than the essential elements needed for combat and adventuring in a future with interstellar travel, additionally providing for starship combat and interstellar trade. The players can one day be in a wilderness fighting for survival and the next in a city avoiding the local authorities or fighting in a space battle.
The scans are satisfactory and do not include searchable text, some pages are wonky and one page is missing. Also it is disappointing that a scan of the front cover of the box is not included.
The scan of the double adventure does not capture the clever upsidedown printing of the second adventure, and back to back printing of the player handouts and maps.
The only references to the Imperial calender comes from the last patron encounter and the serial numbers of the atmosphere testers in the ship's locker of the Central Axis. The description of the patron as a raggedly old man could give an incorrect estimate of the current Imperial year.
Adventures has an enlarged picture of the animal counters from page 8 that is not in the original and is missing page 9, which includes the Referee's Notes and Library data which explains the behaviour of one the atmosphere testers in location 23 in the adventure.
