Overview

History: 2009-Present

Freelance Traveller is not only the longest-running fanzine ever published for Traveller, but it's also likely the longest-running fansite for Traveller, and for that matter the longest-running Traveller entity of any type.

Editor Jeff Zeitlin wrote in Freelance Traveller #0 (November 2009) that his Freelance Traveller website had already been around for 15 years by that point, which would date it to late 1994 or early 1995. At that time, GDW, the original publisher of Traveller, was still in existence and Traveller: The New Era (1993) was still in print as the (mere) third iteration of the Traveller game. It was a different time.

In the beginning, Freelancer Traveller was merely a website, not a fanzine. But it was a website that ran articles from a variety of writers. It actively sought them out, asking for permission to reprint from sources such as the Traveller Mailing List and even from some fanzines of the final era of print 'zines, such as Dark Star II (1996).

The website and its collection of articles ran on a variety of hosted URLs, most of them lost to the mists of time. However around 1998 it settled on the biggest Traveller website of the era, Downport, alongside other Traveller websites such as History of the Imperium Working Group, the Eaglestone Collection, Andrew Moffatt-Vallance's vehicles and weapons, Stuart Ferris' World Builder Deluxe / Heaven & Earth software, and Lewis Roberts' BARD Pages. (Many more would follow.) Around the same time, writers began to proactively submit articles to Freelance Traveller, so that Zeitlin didn't have to track them down on his own. In December 2001 Freelance Traveller finally acquired its own URL: freelancetraveller.com, which it was using by early 2002.

As the '90s passed into the '00s, the Long Night fell on Traveller. GDW's pseudo-successor Imperium Games went out of business and with it, publication of the Traveller game system came to an end (though the universe of Charted Space continued using other RPG systems such as GURPS, Hero, and d20). Traveller's rich universe of fanzines died out as well, with HIWG-focused fanzines such as AAB Proceedings (1989-1999), Starburst (1991?-1999), and The Meshan Saga (1995-1999) being the last to fall. Freelance Traveller, with its regularly updated web-based articles and news, was the closest thing to a fanzine between the death of the final HIWG 'zines in 1999 and the rise of Stellar Reaches (2005-2018?) as the first of many digital PDF 'zines half-a-decade later.

In 2008, the Long Night came to an end with the publication of the first edition of a new Traveller RPG from Mongoose Publishing. Combined with the ease of digital publication, more PDF Traveller fanzines began to arise: Frontier Report (2009), ever so briefly in April 2009, then Freelance Traveller "Magazine" that November. It was just an experiment when Zeitlin published that brief zeroth isue, but the result was overwhelming positive. As a result, it was followed by a more comprehensive Freelance Traveller #1 (2010) the next January. People responded positively to the regular collections of content, and so a new fanzine was born!

Freelance Traveller mainly consisted of new content, but over the years it has also reprinted considerable material from other sources. The pre-magazine web site has always been a source of Freelance Traveller material, but Zeitlin has also drawn from other websites (such as this historian's material written for RPGnet) and in more recent years other magazines such as Cepheus Journal (2020-Present) and even the Spanish-language Vuelo Raso (2021-Present). Everything written for the magazine also continues to be placed on the web site in neatly categorized topics.

Originally monthly, Freelance Traveller shifted to a bimonthly schedule in 2016, but doubled the size of the issues to make up for it.

As of this writing, Freelance Traveller as a PDF magazine has added on another 13 years to the original 15 years of Freelancer Traveller as an article-based website. Its 114 issues utterly eclipse every other fanzine or magazine ever produced for Traveller. If one were to count GDW's science-fiction magazine Challenge (1986-1995) as a Traveller magazine, it'd be the closest contender at 77 issues, including the previous run of Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society (1979-1985). However, just counting pure Traveller 'zines, the closest are the 44 issues of Terra Traveller Times (1987-1995), the 42 issues of AAB Proceedings (1989-1999), the 36 issues of Starburst (1991?-1999), and the 33 issues of Tiffany Star (1988-1992). Moving away from the HIWG discussion 'zines to fanzines more focused on polished articles, the closest is Stellar Reaches (2005-2018?) at 27 issues, just a quarter of Freelance Traveller's run.

Freelancer Traveller's longevity is likely largely thanks to the fact that it's been the product of many, many writers over the years, whereas many fanzines have been largely thanks to single authors. But remaining an editor (and regular contributor) to such an endeavor for such a long period is itself pheneomenal.

Obtaining the Magazines

Freelance Traveller is freely obtainable from the freelancetraveller.com site.

About the Categories

Most articles in Freelance Traveller are divided into several categories. These include.

This index doesn't repeat these categories mainly because they'd be really repetitive. However it does refer to a number of articles as "AARs", which are "After Action Reports".

About the Contents

This is only a partial index. It currently covers the 2020-2023 issues of Freelance Traveller. It will expand backward over time.

This index is built using the ANSI A (US Letter) format. Presumably the A4 version is identical, and likely the website version has near identical content.

About the Game Systems

As with most Traveller fanzines, much material is system-independent; Freelance Traveller also reviews classic material for a variety of game systems. These are all noted in index entries by a game system (or the lack thereof).

Some articles were specifically written for older versions of the game, most commonly Classic Traveller but occasionally MegaTraveller. These rules editions are specifically mentioned in the index where obvious.

Many more articles were written for Mongoose Traveller 1e (2008), Mongoose Traveller 2e (2016), the Traveller Core Rulebook Update 2022 (2021), and Cepheus Engine (2016). These four game systems are all very close variants of Mongoose's 2008 work, so trying to categorize among them is largely meaningless. If an article contains Mongoose-related game mechanics and it didn't originate in the Cepheus Journal and isn't clearly intended for just a single version of the game system, it's classified as "Mong/Cepheus"
