Title: Very old school starship tabletop rpg simulation game thingy
Post by: jocan2003 on August 06, 2018, 12:03:32 pm

I remember some 20years ago i downloaded a rulesetbook thing like dungeon dragon rulebook wich took like 6hours at the time on a 56kbps modem, emptying my printer ink cartdrisge, or was it dotmatrix? was a dotmatrix. anyway it was big set of book about statio  roles, from science to navigation and so on. At one part it was talko g about using the reactor heat to sterilise medical equopment and stuff like that. It was startrek ish and using a small prpgram with scenarios and you could make macros. I Think it was tabletop or tabletop with program assistance. Does it ring a bell to slmebody? Using phone right now, i sich at typing with it.

Traveller? It is the oldest scifi RPG. There are gazillion editions from 1977 or 1978 onwards.
