Space is vast, cold, and incredibly dangerous. To survive, you must be RECKLESS.
Welcome to the Black Pants Legion playthrough of Traveller.
The BPL crew of the Reckless are here for their first session of Traveller TTRPG. They narrowly survived character creation without dying or going bankrupt before even hitting the launch pad. They are a group of heavily armed misfits, disgruntled veterans, and questionably certified “specialists” attempts to navigate the brutal logistics of the Third Imperium. Expect questionable tactical decisions, a whale, bombs, and the inevitable realization that the universe does not care about your pension plan.
If you haven't played Traveller, yes, its the RPG where you can quite literally die in character creation. While rare, that does indeed happen. Traveller has been called "the best space RPG in the history of games" and it has been a favorite of many nerds across the globe for near 5 decades.

The BPL used the Mongoose 2nd Edition of Traveller and played online via Foundry.
ABOUT TRAVELLER RPG:
Traveller is the classic science fiction tabletop roleplaying game of the far future. Unlike high-fantasy space operas, Traveller focuses on the gritty reality of space travel, strict trade logistics, ship debt, and deadly combat where your next jump could be your last. Traveller is the granddad of space RPGs, and has endured for nearly 50 years on the basis of how absolutely awesome it is.
