"MAYDAY! MAYDAY! THEY'RE TAKEN THE BRI— click This is Captain Janovich of the SS Minerva to approaching vessel. Please ignore previous distress message. Our radio operator is suffering from Pantovian Flu, and slipped his restraints. We are not in any danger, nor do we require any assistance. However, I would like to invite your officers and crew to dinner in our wardroom, to thank you for responding to our presumed need. Please dock at the starboard bay; we are prepared to receive you." |

I always love that blog. Never ever respond to a distress call in Traveller. It's always a trap, especially in the Spinward Marches! (At least when I'm the GM. LoL) |

Yep, I agree, it's a trap. |

Great ideas for scenarios. May borrow a couple for my spaceship gaming. |
