Greetings, faithful readers! It’s been quiet around here because for the last week I’ve been at SXSW Interactive, the most bad ass tech conference in the world, in the most bad ass city in the world, Austin, TX.
Most of my time was spent in Important Technology Pursuits Well Lubricated With Free Alcohol, but the geek in me came out as I wandered by a booth in the Screenburn Arcade featuring a new Traveller-based MMO for the iPhone, Traveller AR. (AR stands for Augmented Reality.) It’s got an old school hex map and both trading and combat, and is being done by a bunch of folks with fondness for the tabletop RPG. In fact, who did I get to meet in their booth? None other than Loren Wiseman! (Middle rear in the pic below.)
Traveller!
There are few people with more Traveller chops than him (really only one, Marc Miller himself). You can go sign up for the beta, but hurry, it begins in April.
Also, for some weird reason, Mayfair Games had a booth showing off Settlers of Catan and their new America version. Good to see the old school games representing in the new world!

Marc Miller has been involved with Traveller-AR as well, we are working hard to keep this game as true as possible to the original Traveller RPG game style!
We are glad you enjoyed our booth at SXSWi though, and if you want we may be able to pull together an interview or guest blog post from Tony Howlett 🙂
