Periodical of the Travellers Assistance Guild is a role-playing game magazine devoted to Traveller, commonly abbreviated JTAS.

History [edit]

In 1979 Loren K. Wiseman created a magazine to support Traveller, which resulted in Game Designers' Workshop'sThe Journal of the Travellers' Aid Guild (JTAS), which Wiseman would further develop as editor over its history.[ane] : 55 J. Andrew Keith's writing for JTAS was so extensive that he had to have the pseudonyms John Align and Keith Douglass (he was later 'defenseless' when a reader did a give-and-take-use analysis of his articles and determined that they were all written by the same person).[1] : 56 Marc Miller decided that, rather than using modern dates for the mag, each issue would instead exist based on the in-game Imperium'southward calendar, and the calendar advanced about 90 days every quarterly upshot.[1] : 55 JTAS #two (1979) began printing excerpts from the 'Traveller News Service', which provided information on 'current' events in the Imperium; that outcome, dated 274–1105, offered 2 news excerpts from Regina sector, dated 097-1105 and 101–1105.[1] : 55 JTAS #9 (1981) GDW developed their metaplot for Traveller by describing the start of a state of war with an alien species named the Zhodani.[ane] : 55 GDW'due south original magazine ended with The Journal of the Travellers' Aid Gild #24 (1984); it was soon replaced with a new mag, Challenge, which continued JTAS' numbering with upshot #25 (1986) but covered all of GDW's games, not just Traveller.[1] : 58

Imperium Games published Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society #25 in 1996, and published their 2nd and final outcome of the Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society in 1997.[1] : 333

After Steve Jackson Games licensed the Traveller setting, Journal of the Travellers' Assistance Order was resurrected as an online magazine in 2000.[one] : 111

Mongoose Publishing produced six volumes of Journal of the Travellers' Help Society in 2020 as office of their Traveller licence.[ii]

Name [edit]

The Journal of the Travellers Assist Society takes its proper noun from the fictional Travellers' Aid Gild (TAS) that was first mentioned in the original incarnation of the Traveller game published by Game Designers Workshop [GDW]. In the original Traveller game, it was not too uncommon for characters to obtain membership in the TAS during character creation. The idea of the TAS is that information technology is an organization that exists to support what are basically 'transients,' or 'wanderers' ['Travellers' in the game'southward terminology] effectually the galaxy. It does so past maintaining low-cost hostels at many of the large starports, and, most importantly, by maintaining its 'rating system,' which warns of the dangers inherent in visiting certain worlds. Under this system, a earth which should be approached with circumspection is denoted an 'Amber Zone,' and a world that should not be approached at all is denoted a 'Red Zone.'[ commendation needed ] x§

Reception [edit]

The Journal of the Travellers Help Order won the H.G. Wells laurels for Best Magazine Roofing Roleplaying of 1979.[three]

William A. Barton reviewed the "Merchant Prince" supplement from Journal of the Travellers Aid Society #12 in The Infinite Gamer No. 53.[four] Barton commented that "Although it probably won't totally supplant Merchants & Merchandise as the book for generating merchant characters, Merchant Prince is a well-conceived and viable culling to M&G. Its inclusion in the Journal makes it a special deal. I recommend it to every Traveller histrion, peculiarly those who find the merchant life the most appealing."[4]
