Yeah, I acquired the three black books early on, and never actually made much use of them, so I didn't follow the development of Traveller. Then I ran into people who played in the published Traveller universe, and I was thinking, "Traveller universe? What Traveller universe?" And it always struck me as sort of weirdly synthetic, same as the Champions universe. I mean, I'm all for making up universes, but when you write a set of rules for the rough consensus of a genre, and then make up a universe where all those rules apply . . . well, the flavor's not very compelling.
