Now Available!

Now Available!

 http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/156324/21-Plots-Go-Forth




Coming up with a new adventure can be a challenging process and sometimes a Referee needs a helping hand.  Perhaps your campaign isn't quite ready.  Maybe the last campaign finished a session or two early.  Maybe your players have strayed from the expected path.  Or maybe you're looking for a short session idea to introduce Traveller to a new group of players.
 
We're here to help you!

21 Plots Go Forth is the fourth in our highly successful Plots series.  The book presents 21 situations, each with 6 possible outcomes,  for Traveller groups equipped with a starship and ready to travel.  The book uses the popular 76 Patrons style familiar to Traveller players and, while geared specifically at our Clement Sector setting, can be used with any edition or setting of Traveller.

21 Plots Go Forth also contains an index that can point you to the right adventure for your players not only within this volume but also for our entire line of 21 Plots products.

Like all our products, the main intention of this book is to provide an extra spark to the Referee's imagination.

Mongoose Traveller 2.0 and Ramifications for Clement Sector

Greetings!

As most of you know by now, Mongoose is readying their second edition of the Traveller rules.  It will become available today (Sept 4) as a beta release PDF on Drive-Thru RPG.  They will charge you $20 for that PDF (which will be refundable upon purchase of the final version) and you will get a say in the continuing playtest process.

For the most part, much of Mongoose Traveller 2.0 will be compatible with existing products.  However, some products will need to be updated to reflect the changes made in the second edition.  This has created some challenges for several of the third party publishers and Gypsy Knights Games is no different.  Many of you have already contacted me to ask how these changes will affect GKG and our Clement Sector setting.  Today, I am at liberty to discuss this.

The changes from Mongoose Traveller 1.0 to 2.0 will cause the delay of some of our products which we had planned for the closing months of the year.  Those products (most of which I had not announced yet) will arrive in early 2016.  While we will still be able to create products compatible with 1.0 (or products which do not rely heavily on system elements that will need to be changed), we will not be able to create products for use with 2.0 until Mongoose releases the SRD.  I'm told this will be soon and probably toward the beginning of 2016.

In addition, the advent of this second edition will force the creation of Clement Sector 2nd Edition.  We intend to take advantage of this situation to update our core setting book, include information that was added by us later in the Player's Guide and Career Companion and correct any errors we have discovered after publication.  We are already working on this project and we hope to have it ready for you as soon as we can.  

The changes will also make it necessary for us to create a new version of The Anderson and Felix Guide to Naval Architecture.   Much like Clement Sector 2.0, Anderson and Felix 2.0 will take advantage of this edition change to expand our coverage of the topic, continue to build our setting and correct any errors.  As with Clement Sector 2.0, Anderson and Felix 2.0 is already in production and we will have this ready for you as soon as it is possible for us to do so.

With these two projects, while it may be necessary for you to "rebuy" them, we intend to try to make this process as painless as possible.  We intend to offer deep discounts on these books for those who have already purchased them.  There will be more on this later.

The changes to the starship rules both within the new Mongoose rules (core and High Guard) as well as Anderson and Felix 2.0 will require us to make updates to our current fleet of Ships of Clement Sector books.  These will each be updated to the new standards following the release of Anderson and Felix 2.0.  The PDFs will be updated at *NO COST* to the consumer.  You will simply be able to go to your vendor and pick up the new copy.  Hopefully, this will make the update process less painful for the fans.

I should make it clear here that while, due to the costs of the updates, Clement Sector 2.0 and Anderson and Felix 2.0 will not be free to the consumer.  However, every other update we perform will be free of charge to you.  So you, the consumer, should be able to go out and purchase any of our ship books without fear of wasting your money.  We will update these for you when the time comes and it will cost you no additional funds.

We at Gypsy Knights Games love our customers and we appreciate your understanding as we go through this process.  We hope to make this change as simple and as painless as we can for you.  However, we are excited about the future and what the future may hold for Clement Sector!

Stay tuned!  You will soon see more updates from me on this topic and many others.  GKG will be attending a lot of conventions over the next few months and we hope to see you there for a game or two.  We also have our newest entry in the 21 Plots series (21 Plots Go Forth) coming out in a couple of weeks and we're really excited about it as well.

Have a great weekend!  Keep on Travellin'!

Captain!  SDBs incoming!

Ships of Clement Sector 9: System Defense Boats is now available on DTRPG! 


http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/155089/Ships-of-Clement-Sector-9-System-Defense-Boats





Gypsy Knights Games is proud to present the ninth entry in our newest line of products dedicated to the starships of Clement Sector.

Ships of Clement Sector 9: System Defense Boats details six common vessels that are often the first line of defense for a planetary government and, for many, the only system defense they have against piracy or even invasion from another planetary government.  These boats can be used as a primary defense, customs inspections or search and rescue missions.

Ships of Clement Sector 9: System Defense Boats comes complete with beautiful views of each of these ships.  Each ship is shown with full deckplans and statistics to make your use of our product simple, easy, and fun.  In addition, we have included several adventure seeds and a sample NPC to aid the Referee in his/her preparation.

Though designed specifically with our Clement Sector setting in mind, each of these ships could easily be used in any Traveller setting.

Get on board!  Adventure awaits!

Ships of Clement Sector 8: Berlin-class Colonial Destroyer Now Available!


 You can pick up your copy at this link!





Gypsy Knights Games is proud to present the eighth entry in our line of products dedicated to the starships of Clement Sector.

The Berlin-class is a 1200dT standard short hulled starship design. Designed primarily to provide colonial protection and security, the destroyer has crystaliron hull armor and an internal reinforced structure.

There were ten Berlin-class Colonial Destroyers in Clement Sector when the Conduit collapsed.  All ten of these are currently in service with the Hub Federation Navy. After considering several design proposals the Marinekommando authorized detailed design and construction of the Berlin-class with the ability to carry a reinforced platoon of troops and their support vehicles.  No other national navy has constructed a similar class of ship, preferring to use troop transports with escorts to achieve the same purpose, which makes the Berlin-class somewhat unique.

The Berlin-class ship is ideal for use in a naval campaign where the characters are called upon for multiple roles or a campaign in which the characters are Hub Federation strike troops.  The Berlin can also provide a worthy adversary for pirate and smuggler characters as well.

Ships of Clement Sector 8: Berlin-class Colonial Destroyer comes complete with beautiful views of the ship.  The Berlin-class is presented with full deckplans and statistics to make your use of our product simple, easy and fun. In addition, the Berlin comes with a set of adventure hooks to get your characters right into the action as well as a short story written by Bradley Warnes.

Though designed specifically with our Clement Sector setting in mind, the Berlin-class could easily be used in any Traveller setting.

Get on board!  Adventure awaits!

Gypsy Knights Games is proud to present the first in a line of products dedicated to the great ships of the Clement Sector setting's past.

The Trent-class destroyer is a reaction drive vessel used by the United States Space Navy in the early days of colonization into Clement Sector.  The 1500-tonne destroyer was launched in 2185 to provide security and to protect the United States' fledgling interstellar colonies. The Trent-class was the most capable of the first generation reaction drive interstellar warships.

Historical Ships of Clement Sector 1: Trent comes complete with beautiful views of the Trent as well as full deckplans and statistics to make your use of the product simple, easy, and fun.  The book also comes with deck plans and views of the ship's boat and work pod.  Also included are adventure seeds to help Referees get their characters involved with the action immediately.  Though designed specifically with our Clement Sector setting in mind, the Trent could easily be used in any Traveller setting.

Get on board!  Adventure awaits!

The Anderson and Felix Guide to Naval Architecture Is Now Available!







Now available at this link! 

 

Your project has the green light!

Currently the largest ship building company in Clement Sector, the Anderson and Felix Shipbuilders Company was started on Hub in 2299 by Jamie Anderson and Reynaldo Felix. Both Anderson and Felix brought to Clement Sector their considerable expertise and experience constructing space vessels for travel between Earth and the Earth Sector colonies.  And now that expertise is in your hands!

Ranging from tiny ten tonne work pods to massive armored system defense monitors, the space ships of Clement Sector are as varied as the crews that operate them.

This book provides the tools for a naval architect to design small craft to huge in-system ships, trader or capital ship. They can install the latest technology to allow the ship to transit interstellar distances, use inertialess drives or to “ride fire “on a ship that uses spin gravity to provide for crew comfort. They can also design low technology missile armed warships or capital ships bristling with high energy weapons and ship killing torpedoes.

The Anderson and Felix Guide to Naval Architecture uses the Mongoose Traveller System Reference Documents (SRD) for Core Rules and Book 2: High Guard (available from Mongoose Publishing), merging and customizing the two documents to tailor the ship design sequence for space craft in the Clement Sector Setting. Even with this customization, there are many additional components and associated rules adjustments that could be used in any setting.

Both the adventure class ship and capital ship design sequences have been merged into a new design sequence that allows for better design flow.

Bit of a Snag

Actually, as it turns out, "The Colonies" is a trademarked name for another product.  We were unaware of this and are in the process of changing the name to "The Clement Sector Colonies".

Unfortunately, this mistake means the book will be unavailable until those changes can be made.  We apologize for any inconvenience this causes and I will make you aware of when the product is ready to be reinstated.

The Colonies Now in Print!

Our newest print compilation, The Colonies, is now available!  

 http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/142195/The-Colonies


Welcome to the Colonies!

The Colonies are located on the cutting edge of civilization in Clement Sector.  These worlds are the most recently settled systems and offer a wealth of adventuring possibilities for your characters. The Colonies compiles all the action and excitement of our Colonies PDF series including Dade Colonies, Peel Colonies, Superior Colonies and Dawn Colonies.

Visit such worlds as:

Superior - Home to an outcast genetic scientist and his followers.  A colony dedicated to creating better humans at any cost!

Sarawak - A religious separatist colony with a strong desire to be left alone.  Was this desire so strong that they violated their morals and killed hundreds to maintain their privacy?

Peel - An unstable military dictatorship that is inching toward chaos!

Argos Prime - A world with underground seas and oceans in a maze of caverns where corporate interests and new settlers are clashing with the established colonists.  Whose side will your characters take?

Adventure awaits in the new colonies!
