Tiji Sector Project

So this is a cooperative project for all of /tg/.

The system we will use for system creation will be Mongoose Traveller. I am using the 2008 printing of the Core Rulebook, pg.s 1697 to 181. Any Entry in the Universal World Profile(UWP) may be altered if /tg/ doesn't like the result, but once a world is complete the code is fixed. (additional info is developed using the expanded rules in T5)

Currently no world is complete and only tentative descriptions are in place. If anyone on /tg/ wishes to add, correct, or otherwise alter a description, UWP, Trade Codes, or Travel Zone, please green text or otherwise quote the original entry and post it with your submission. This can be done here on /tg/ or on the roll20 Tiji Sector forum.

The project is not limited to just building the sector, the cultures and races are also under discussion. Currently the only inhabitants are humans, the scattered Zoani, and the terrifying Coral Minds. Random creature creation can be found on pg.s 69 to 75.

The goal is to develop the sector enough to allow gaming groups to adventure and explore using the Traveller ruleset. Keeping with this, some parts of sub-sectors, or even some entire sub-sectors, will have locations of systems that haven't been explored, surveyed, or otherwise documented, letting groups have their own bit of the Tiji Sector just for their game.

Facility 7-6 (Cold, Corporate Base, Private “Security”)
Visitors are encouraged to refuel and move on unless they have business approved by MFW, the company which operates the one permanent facility here.
>>
>>36134388
A little longer:

Facility 7-6 (1108 C410114-B)
(Cold Moon, Corporate Base, Private “Security”)
Visitors are encouraged to refuel and move on unless they have business approved by MFW, the company which operates the one permanent facility here. Important but mysterious Imperial contracts keep this system in the Imperial Couriers loop, and the small facility and its security force seem well informed. The port is technically Imperial territory, but the MFW security forces discourage casual visitors from getting that far, “suggesting” that they either dip from the outer gas giant (not the one 7-6 orbits) or only go so far as one of the fuel depots conveniently parked around both of the gas giants. Largely automated affairs, these depots offer only unrefined fuel and can suffer from sporadic supply schedules. Many Imperial and RTC traders consider this world effectively independent due to this indifferent public front.
>>
>>36134527
Oh nice, work.
I like Facility 7-6 and it's very "don't touch anything, don't look at anything, keep moving" vibe. Might need to give it a bit more write up, have it be either a front for fencing pirated ships and goods or a genuine mercenary/privateer company.
>>
>>36135643
The attitude can cover a multitude of sins, from government work to shenanigans of all sorts. Spelling it out in too much detail is the function of an adventure, really.

Ahh, I see, have it as a hint so rather than set, got it. Good work by the way. I've archived the thread so far, gonna get some sleep and update roll20 in the morning with all the SSB stuff we have so far. If there is little to no activity I'll just bump the thread with musings 'till some anon stops my spiraling insanity.

Do we have a Drinax? I can't remember all the system names right now.
>>
>>36135899
Drinax is in the OTU, in Trojan Reach
>>
>>36135899
Probably not, it's from the Trojan Reach, and Mongoose has an adventure series based around that area. I just thought the name would be a nice touch.
>>
>>36135896
We have at least another 20 to 30 worlds to do before this project is at a reasonable benchmark point (ie. most of Alpha Quad). We try to gather a little earlier, as FDM and I are both on Pacific Time.
We welcome participation. If you know Mongoose Traveller, we are *cough* mostly*cough* using that version of the world building rules. As long as one of us sees the results so we can archive, chime in, and keep creating, feel free to roll virtual dice and interpret.
>>

I'm generally here in the mid to late day PST, so if you want to run some systems I'll be here in about 12 hours. I'll check back in 9 or 10 first.

I'n in AEST, so It's early evening. But I'll be sure to monitor when the threads are active.

Here's the quadrant map. Anything ringed in blue has only two reliable data points: Port and Gas Giant presence. Most of these worlds are going to be pretty rough places, with only the Imperium and the RTC being vaguely nice places that frown on blatant oppression.
>>
>>36136066
So is the generation going in a particular order of horizontal/vertical hex, or a pick-one and provide stats (or vice versa)
>>
>>36136066
And in the case of subsectors E and F, only the gas giants. The names and UWPs are random, and the systems were generated with no ports on purpose.

Max TL is 12, and for most worlds it should be lower. The region is just emerging from a dark interregnum that started with a black war, so dead worlds are possible.
>>
>>36136131
For A we rolled pretty much in hex order, while in B we've been rolling then placing more.
>>
>>36136168
Alright, sounds good. I'll have a reread of the world generation rules and post some stuff later.
>>
>>36136187
Don't worry about being incredibly productive. We're trying to keep this organic instead of just masses of random numbers.
>>
The big map
>>
>>36136187
We sort of float in and out of using the Space Opera/Hard SF rules on page 180. If the results are interesting and not too physically implausible, that's a good thing.

A small society, at the peak of Industry Development.

Should I think of more to write about it?

Would 1106 and 1208 be suitable?

The first one would enter the interstellar age at 1106, while the second one would be just at space tech in that spot. This is not the Imperium's most important border, so backwater worlds are not a problem.

>>36151422
Those work as >>36151482 this is a pretty soft frontier. There is a profitable trade partner and a "Security Detachment" able to respond to any "incidents"

Farst (1005 D000252-8 S)
(Cold Asteroids)
The inner system at Farst was once a CORE Lord stringhold, and paid for that privilege by being extensively bombarded with terrible weapons. Very little useful remains in the inner system, but the Imperium studies the remains from one of the only safe areas left, the outer belt. There are more Imperial Surveyors here than permanent residents. BEtween the Scouts ongoing work and the proximity of the Alliance worlds, there is little interest in upgrading the commercial port here. At least one of the three gas giants in the system was also seeded with mines centuries ago, making even wilderness refueling a tricky and dangerous undertaking.
>>
I'm thinking we finish these worlds, head into C long enough to get the rest of the RTC worlds, and then head to E.
The upper half of E can be generated using the standard rules, but I think we should consider some downward pressures on population for the rest unless they are Zoani worlds. I think we want a higher than random distribution of deserted and dead worlds.
>>
My archives are now up to date.
>>
>>36158914
Yeah, current goals are:
Complete SSB
Complete RTC
Begin SSE
I agree SSE should have a lower population on Imperial worlds, but there is going to be 1 or 2 systems colonized by refugees of the collapse.
