Hello; I am new to this Travellar site and thought I would introduce myself.

First call me Larry; I have been playing Travellar and other Sci-Fi rpg's since the late 70's. I am a disabled vet; I am an experience role player and ref/GM; I have played in and ref'ed most of the Travellar era's; currently living in Central IN, USA. I have been living here for about a year now and am looking for a rpg group to play in or others in this area interested in starting one.

Anything else you want to know just ask

Welcome to the community, Larry!

I live in the UK so I can't really help you regarding a gaming group. It'd be a hell of a commute! =)

Greetings, Larry!

This is a great site. Lots of information and sources to tap on just about anything. Browse various topics and see what an incredible resource we have here.

A tip of the hat to Hunter for all his hard work. And consider becoming a Moot member. I am...

Thanks to all for the welcome. I have looked around and have gotten several ideas already for adventures- just no group to play with!

Ptah: I grew up here; ex had family in Nebraska; I spent 15 yrs there and hated it; after the divorce (long story)I moved back here to Indiana because that was the direction the wind was blowing in! Actually I live close to Columbus, about 50 miles from Indianapolis.

Scarecrow: your right it would be one hell of a commute to play Traveller; Question though "isn't that the idea of Traveller? To go where the adventure is. ha ha"

Fritz88: Since I don't have much of a family anymore (another long story related to my divorce)except my 93 yr old aunt, my Alaskan Husky dog, and my 3 adult children I just might wind up in VA someday!

Thanks again to all for the welcome.

Hi larry,
welcome aboard the good ship coti. Have you thought about a play-by-email (pbem) game? I thoroughly enjoy the one I'm in.

Cheers.

Hi From one vet (USMC and US Army) to another.
Post early and often.
Check out the political pulpit (if you can take the political debate heat or even give some) and join the moot (so you get access to play testing new products and other benifits).

Welcome to the Traveller CotI family!
