I'm a newbie when it comes to online gaming. Anyone interested in helping me cut my teeth with the new Mongoose Traveller? I might be willing to referee but you'd need to be patient while I figure out roll20 or g+ hangouts. I'm in Seattle, so my time zone is PST. I'd be interested in doing Saturday or Sunday evenings, weekly or every other week, depending on people's availability. I'm currently running a Great Pendragon Campaign for my irl friends and I need a serious palate cleanser. Traveller isn't the only system I'd be interested in, though its the one I would be able to run easiest. I could play in several other systems (eg. FF Star Wars, Eclipse Phase, L5R, FATE, Shadowrun 5ed).

I am 9 hours ahead of you but I am willing to show how Roll20 works sometime.

the maps are kinda pissing me off. not planning on using much but line drawing on a square grid for ground combat, but getting a traveller subsector to work is proving to be a pain

I usually turn of the grid and Photoshop a grid on the map image. Setting the scale is not hard once you figure out how.

So I've got three players signed up from my rl friends to play semi-regularly and I'm planning on recording the sessions and placing on my YouTube channel. I will post a link here when the first session is done.
