A while back, someone posted a question (as background for an adventure or story?) asking how offworlders might notice if/when a Traveller planet nuked itself back into the Stone Age. Unfortunately, I can't find that original thread. So I'm posting the below here instead . . .
I commented on that lost thread that there was a CT adventure which use just that situation as it's background premise. But as a consequence of other threads here, I have realized that said adventure was published in an old issue of Dragon magazine, rather than in anything GDW put out.
Specifically, it was "Exonidas Spaceport" in Dragon #59.
[And apropos of nothing . . . when I now sound out "Exonidas," rather than simply being a cool sci-fy-sounding name as of yore, it makes me think "disease of Exxon."]
