This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So, what's your favorite source for Traveller (any edition) ships, source materials, adventures, etc?

Firefox has a sync bookmark program.  Or, failing that, there's del.icio.us.
 
Yeah, I've had that happen before.  Which sucks eggs.

I like the BARD website for Traveller:The New Era.  I also enjoy its goofy academic database feel that takes me back to my days in grad school in the social sciences.  It is part of the most excellent downport.com portal site.  Lots of neat stuff to be found there.

You might also want to check out the Missouri Archive which is a repository of crunchy stuff from way back on the TML.  It's cool to browse through, at least.

And what list of Trav links would be complete without a map of all Known Space. :cool:

I like selected articles from JTAS and Freelance Traveller.

Some of my favorite deckplan sites grew out of the Traveller Deck Plan forums

I'm into the Domain of Gateway. I forget where I got the Gateway 993 sector data because, well, after I put it into excel and formatted it and added filters, I never needed for sector data again.

There's some great Gateway Domain sector maps here (and a pretty snazzy marches map as well):

My favorite Traveller forum is Citizens of the Imperium.  Those folks are hardcore.  The Classic Traveller subforum is goldplated awesome.

I've been on one myself. But that has something to do with the fact I am running a Traveller D20 pickup game at GenCon (a few seats are still open) and I am starting planning now because I want it to positively KICK ASS! :)

Actually, you mean both Freelance Traveller and Downport.
