Classic Traveller (CT).
The original edition of
Traveller
published by GDW 1977, and revised in
1981. The designer’s intention was a generic science-fiction system, but it quickly concentrated on
the Third Imperium as a setting supported with adventures and supplements.
MegaTraveller (MT).
The second edition of
Traveller
published by GDW 1987, introduced a unified
task game mechanic supported by a fully developed skill system; it advanced the
Traveller
universe
history and setting into the Rebellion era.
Traveller: The New Era (TNE).
The third edition of
Traveller,
the last to be published by GDW
1993, adopted GDW’s RPG
House System
rules (also used for
Twilight: 2000
and
Dark Conspira-
cy).
Adventures chronicled the aftermath of a widespread collapse of interstellar civilization.
Marc Miller’s Traveller (T4).
The fourth edition of
Traveller,
published by Imperium Games 1996,
(after GDW closed its doors). Its adventures and supplements chronicle the founding years of the

A parallel edition (published by Steve Jackson Games 1998) chronicling an
alternate universe in which Strephon was not assassinated and the
MegaTraveller
Rebellion did
not happen. This edition adapted the setting to the Steve Jackson Games GURPS rules set.

Produced as a universal science-fiction role-playing rules set (pub-
lished by Mongoose Games 2007), this edition again emphasized the Spinward Marches and its
surrounding sectors.
This edition of

Traveller5 (T5).
The fifth of the direct line of editions of the

game system, ambitiously

Travel without companions is a truly unsatisfying endeavor.
My joy and my satisfaction in writing and playing
Traveller
would be empty without the faithful support of my life’s companion.
