I made a few starship deckplans and put them up on DTRPG. They come with stats for the Cepheus Engine, but are usable for Traveller and other scifi systems as well.

A 700 dton jump-2 patrol ship (includes a civilian variant converted to a cargo ship):

A 1,000 dton jump-3 transport ship (includes a variant as military assault transport):

Please Report to Third Grade Geometry for stealing their designs.


I mean, uh... seriously, congrats on having the balls to do the art yourself and brag about it?


no, no... that's not encouraging... lemmee try again...


congrats on starting your own small business, I'm sure the actual deckplans are good. Now: Hire a real artist to do your covers!



There. That's.... well, its close enough.
For you the day you found a minor error in a Post by Spike and forced him to admit it, it was the greatest day of your internet life.  For me it was... Tuesday.

For the curious: Apparently, in person, I sound exactly like the Youtube Character The Nostalgia Critic.   I have no words.

You made me laugh, thanks!

As for the quality of the deckplans: They look about as good as the ones in 1st edition Mongoose, so don't have too high hopes. :cool:

But if there is an artist out there who likes to do my covers and interior artwork: Contact me! I won't pay you in advance, but we could split the profits 50:50.

Honestly... I was going to buy 'this product', as the promise of Mongoose quality deck plans is worth my time even if the artwork on the cover is.. not. If only because I like deckplans and you seem to be a good sport, and I appreciate that...

... but I'm not really wanting One Deck Plan. Maybe put together a small pamphlet of deck plans?

Chances are high that I will make a compilation or bundle some day, when I have more than four deckplans, 10 or 20 perhaps. But that won't happen any time soon. For now, you have to buy them one by one. Sorry if that's a disqualifier for you.

I have a new line, "Ships of the Conformity". They are ships made by a minor human race going out into the stars after reverse engineering the jump drive from a crashed Terran ship, but they can be used in other settings, too.

There are a few more deckplans:

A 200dton jump-3 Long Range Scout

A 300dton jump-3 Cargo Freighter

Another deck plan, this time as PAY WHAT YOU WANT (so, for free, if you are so inclined):

https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/247026/Brandis-Seven-Strike-Craft

It's a 400 dton jump-4 thrust-6 strike craft. It's an attempt to convert the starship from a famous (?) German YA scifi book series from the 1970s, and it came out pretty accurate.

A new one! This time for Mongoose Traveller 2e:

The Meerkat Class Mercenary Assault Ship is a sturdy 750 ton jump-4 ship intended to insert small special forces teams from orbit.
The document includes a short description, full stats for Mongoose Traveller 2e and complete deck plans.
