Welcome to the HoloNet Uplink, citizen. This series focuses on Fantasy Flight Games\u2019 Star Wars Roleplaying Game, with content aimed mostly at the Gamemaster. Threats, adventure seeds, rules supplements, and more are all to come for those who\u00a0access\u00a0The HoloNet Uplink.<\/em><\/p>\n

I know it has been some time since my last entry<\/a> in Old School Chart Cool<\/a>, so I figured it was time to whip something up in that sub-series. Today, I provide a generator to whip up some random traffic for the spacelanes in your game.<\/p>\n

Remember, this is just a way to generate ideas to serve as an inspirational springboard. Don’t like the result? Roll again, combine rolls, pick your results, throw the entire thing away, whatever. You’ll get the best mileage out of this by using it as a way to get your creative juices flowing when the flow has stopped.<\/p>\n

Random Space Traffic<\/h3>\n

Make selections or roll as many times as desired to populate your traffic.<\/p>\n

Roll 1d10 to generate a random ship type. An example class is listed for each type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
