I have no idea if they know anything about the 3I setting. So far, in just the Aliens books alone, Mongoose has turned the Solomani into a nation of racists instead of just a having a racist government, turned the Sword Worlders from viking inspired to sexist neo-nazi’s, they turned the Darrians from aliens into elves, the Aslan into lion-headed toons, and the Vargar into dog-headed jokes. They have also been subtlety making small changes to cannon that have wide reaching effects, and seeming not caring one whit about it. To me it seems they care nothing about the award winning setting that has come to be seen as Traveller in the gaming community’s eyes. THANK THE GODS they got an author that knows the setting to do the Zho and upcoming Droyne book, because it has become obvious to me, that while they can write great rules for a game, they cant handle a setting for beans.

Ça ne changera rien au mépris affiché par Sprange et sa bande pour le respect de ce qui a fait la réputation de Traveller (et sa survie ininterrompue depuis les années ’70), mais ça fait toujours du bien de le redire une fois de plus.
Je ne m’étais pas rendu compte que l’auteur du supplément Zhodani de Mongoose était Don McKinney (qui semble en effet être un vrai fan à l’ancienne).
