Classic Citizens Hack 1.2

Description

This app lets you generate and store a collection of Classic Traveller characters.

Characters are generated using the rules in Book 1: Characters and Combat and Supplement 4: Citizens of the Imperium. The app walks through the steps, generating random die rolls and offering options when available. After character generation, you may modify a stored character’s characteristics, skills and possessions during play.

Alternatively, you may manually enter the data for an existing character generated outside of this app, including those created using the advanced character generation systems in Books 4-7. These characters may also be modified during play.

The app includes databases of skills and equipment from a variety of Classic Traveller sources. You may create custom skills and equipment as desired.

This app is a modern replacement for my first iOS app, TAS Form 2, which was a character record sheet app without the character generation features. TAS Form 2 has been removed from the App Store but will continue to work if you still have it.
