We drop directly into our story with the crew of the Far Trader The Kate's Gambit in the midst of a job on the world of Garda-Vilis in the Spinward Marches. When they attract some unwanted attention, however, they'll have to improvise a new plan to finish the job and get away.

Voyagers of the Jump is an original adventure using the 2022 2E Update to the Traveller RPG rules set by Mongoose Publishing.
First published in 1977, Traveller is a science fiction RPG in the vein of The Expanse or Battlestar Galactica. Most who played the original game back in the day remember the robust character creation system where if you push too far and get unlucky with the dice, you can die before you even start playing.

Let's remember that before Police Squad, Leslie Neilson WAS a serious actor. That's what made him great in that role was that he was like the last person you'd expect to be funny. Bolstered by the fact that he didn't find the humour funny, which helped his straight man delivery.

So the story Skid told about Forbidden Planet made me remember, and get thankful, for what that movie did for analog synthesis in music. Threw the rulebook out so hard that there's a whole technique for making generative ambience called a Krell patch, off the aliens from the movie. We're not even sure we're doing it the way the original crew did, either.

The Shriekers of 567-908 (Spinward Marches 1031) are a sentient species whose rationality was hard to discover since they communicated in high frequency shrieks (hence the name) and gestures. Their eggs were actually sold for jewels, so something like Alicia Marie's cancelling situation has happened canonically in the Traveller universe. The Ael Yael of Jaeyelya (Gushemege 0437) had a similar experience, which left them as a race totally opposed to megacorporations.

But upon looking it up majel Barrett-rodenberry has a line or appearance in almost every episode from TOS through 08 when she died including voicing all the lines of the computer in TNG and TOS also 2 episodes of Enterprise, and played trois mother and multiple on screen roles in TNG, including the first officer in the TOS pilot.

Fans of Forbidden Planet (and Alien), try Planet of the Vampires (Italy 1965). It’s creepy cheesy and fun, with fashionable black leather space suits. If the plot seems similar to Alien, that’s because a little over a decade later Dan O’Bannon cribbed some elements of the plot for his screenplay. One of my favorite oldies.
