He and I will be doing a practice run using pen and paper this weekend - so he will have a little experience with the battle wagon. He’s just joined the TML as well.

Well, the teaching game went off with SIX players (4 new, 1 "military advisor" for each side). Since several players were learning the game completely from scratch, the battle didn't get very far, but the response was enthusiastic! The teen player has insisted that next week's game will be him with a Plankwell against everyone else ... It should be an amazing demonstration of firepower.

Two father-son teams were set to go head-to-head today, but there was a death in one family. There are still enough players and the teaching game is going ahead today, so if you're interested, please sign up at https://vtt.mikezekim.com/events/event/23-traveller-teaching-game

No experience necessary, no need to own the game, no cost, etc. Two coaches will be on hand to help everyone out.
