*"sorta" = Three people (me, the GM and one other fellow) played through an initial session which may or may not turn out to form part of the campaign's ongoing story . . . then the GM was [quite understandably] a no-show for the second session, due to it falling on Mother's Day . . . so I'm hoping something actually happens for the third session, planned for 5/26.

Hey All,

I'm sorta* playing in a Mongoose Traveller game now and the GM is using the 2.0 core rulebook. But all I could find locally in a print copy was the 1.0 version. Of course, I could have bought a PDF online or maybe gotten a 2.0 through the mail from somewhere, but I prefer to spend my money locally whenever possible.

So my question is: are there significant differences between 1.0 and 2.0, other than the snazzy color artwork and cuttaway deckplans in the later [plus the fact that 2.0 inexplicably completely lacks an index]?
