Traveller - Profit Margin II: The Fifth Frontier War


WELCOME TO THE FIFTY-SEVENTH CENTURY

By the ancient calender of Terra, it is the year 5628 AD, and by that of the Third Imperium, it is 1107.

At the furthest edge of Imperial space, in the Spinward Marches, the rumours of war which had been circulating have proven to be true.  The alliance between the Zhodani Consulate, the Sword Worlds Confederation, and assorted Vargr states is a fact.

The war has started, and it doesn't go well for the Imperial forces in the sector.

Enter Profit Margin, a tramp trader, making its way from port to port, in search of the next lucrative deal which will allow her, and her crew, to survive at least a little longer.

Nearly two years ago the ship had been chartered by an INS officer to take part in espionage along the Sword Worlds border.  Now that officer, Hrouff Gvaegach is missing, presumed dead, and Profit Margin is back in Imperial space and deep in debt.

Traveller - Profit Margin II: The Fifth Frontier War uses the Classic Traveller rules (the first edition Little Black Books), but knowledge of the rules is not necessary.  Knowledge of the background is also not a requirement, since background information will be presented within the game, in the form of Library Data and TNS News Bulletins.
