“Run for Your Lives!” – A Classic Traveller mini-One-Shot adventure
A downloadable game
Through a series of unfortunate events that cannot be explained without admitting to multiple felonies, you stole the Ancients artifact and returned to Dr. Knohw’s secret lair inside a hollowed-out asteroid.
The artifact is a small cylinder of indeterminate metal without decoration: a true enigma; dull, heavy and inert. But the good (and mad) Doctor, giddy and feeling magnanimous, invited you to witness his unlocking of its secrets.

And then it all went horribly wrong,
This adventure is simple: the you must escape to survive; you cannot fight, nor hide, nor science your way out of the problem.

There are 2 pdfs. One is a document that has everything you need to run the game, including individual copies of the deck plans for your personal use.
The other pdf is a large map showing how the deck plans fit together.
If any of this feels reminiscent of Indy's run through the Temple after stealing the Golden Idol, and almost being crushed by the rolling boulder, then I'll be a happy man.
