Description
A scene from our Traveller RPG session. The players' scout ship was ambushed while refueling at a gas giant. As they tried to escape, an enemy laser found it's mark, biting deep into the hull of the small ship, nearly claiming one of the players in the process....

Fantastic scene. That sounds like an exciting game.
Thank you :). This happened earlier in the campaign. Still a thrilling moment to be sure :D
Exceptional !
Honored you think so :)
Coooool!
Glad you like it :)
Great action, effects!
Thank you very much :) On a side note, in the game it's common to wear space suits and decompress a ship in combat to avoid losing oxygen and suffering explosive decompression, which is why he's wearing it in this scene.
@Niceman Nice side info and good idea! Probably key to them making it out alive!
yah, Traveller is a hard-scifi RPG, so things like that are considered. For example, not much Star Wars style fights on ships as shooting up vital equipment or blowing a hole in a window is bad for everyone, so in actuality there's a lot of swordplay and using low velocity weapons like shotguns.
@Niceman That's smart that is thought of when working on the RPG. No reckless battles! :)
Yah it's very cool about doing things like that, even with that high-tech sci-fi of it. Lots of real world science behind things. Really helps give everything a feeling of verisimilitude.
