The thousand-year Imperium has been shattered in a vast civil war.  But life goes on for the individual, especially in the far-flung Spinward Marches.

In the Imperial year 1120, a rag-tag group of five space travelers found themselves on the world of Esalin, looking for work.  Rommeg Taeor was a merchant and a competent pilot.  The brute Klyy and his companion, the lovely Valentine, had been pirates.  Finally, two women: Merin Vash and Generica Fezzle, the former a scout and the latter a scientist, medic, chemist, and electrician, were also part of the crew.

Then they found a job that would prove more dangerous than they could have possibly imagined.

On September 24, 2010, I ran Megatraveller as a one-shot to test out the game for a review in Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine.  My players were Brian, Rich, Ashley-Nichole, Bethany, and Melissa.  The scenario was “Operation Flashfire” by Julia Martin and Wesley Kawato from Challenge Magazine #44.
