Science Officer (Professor Maximillian Ziegenhagen)Įngineering Officer (James Miles Scott-O’Brien) Player ship science, medical, engineering, and security officers and of course two disposable bungling security guards (I’ll call them Steve and Ian, for reasons that may or may not be apparent). That is not many – the usual count is 400 – yet there’s a lot going on in this book, and it’s a shame there wasn’t more. The other important point is that there’s only 340 entries (plus three for combat rules). They were trying to get a different feel for this book, and it worked out well. The artwork is a little bit minimalist, but that’s okay. Yes, the titular starship, Traveller, winds up in an alternate universe and the reader, being the captain, has to get the crew home. I suppose then it’s fair enough that the plot of this ended up in Star Trek: Voyager. It’s also rather suspiciously similar to a certain television franchise, what with the multiple ship specialists, and phasers, and transporters, and so on. I never finished it as it is hard, having two essential items to find and nothing to go on but trial and error. This is the first science fiction themed Fighting Fantasy book, and also the first one I owned. Gladiatorial combat is a common hazard of outer space.
