January 30, 2012: In Space, No One Can Hear . . . Wait! Argh! (Glub Glub Glub) (http://www.sjgames.com/ill/archives.html?m=January&y=2012&d=30)

A trip to space has a lot in common with a visit underwater: Both are challenging environments that have wide-open areas where it's a bad idea to step outside for a smoke. GURPS Traveller Classic: Planetary Survey 5 - Tobibak (http://e23.sjgames.com/item.html?id=SJG30-6805) -- just released on e23 (http://e23.sjgames.com/) -- combines two great tastes into one wet world.</p>
This guidebook for Tobibak has the titular planet's history (past and recent), a look at how it fits into the larger Traveller (http://traveller.sjgames.com/) universe, a GURPS (http://gurps.sjgames.com/) guide for those who live there or are just visiting, and a discussion of adventuring possibilities tied to the savage sea.</p>
Whether you want to just visit Tobibak or plan on setting up watery roots, Planetary Survey 5: Tobibak (http://e23.sjgames.com/item.html?id=SJG30-6805) has what you need to really let you stretch your legs. Or fins, tentacles, pseudopods . . .</p>
