At this years Travellercon/USA I had the pleasure of running a GURPS Traveller Starships game. Three Imperial patrol cruisers were pitted against three Vargr corsairs. I trimmed the rules down a bit to make for faster gameplay.  |
| Early on in the fight. The patrol cruisers close on the space station in order to retrieve an excape pod. |
 |
| The ships are fully involved in the fight. The blue and orange counters were used to mark future positions for our combatants. |
 |
| Two patrol cruisers maneuver to the right side of the space station while the third draws fire from several corsairs. |
 |
| A escape pod leaves the station on a truly random course. |
 |
| Despite many hits the solo patrol cruiser hold its own. |
 |
| The blue patrol cruiser swoops in to pick up the randomly moving escape pod then jumps out system. |
 |
| The space station explodes due to some horrible accident. I'm sure that is how the report will read. |
I had six ships in the fight with six players. The total fight took about two hours. I plan on running another game at the next Travellercon/USA but with more and diverse ships.
