Ordeal by Eshaar is a 1981 role-playing game adventure for Traveller published by FASA.
Ordeal by Eshaar is an adventure in which the player characters must deal with the diplomacy and intrigue early in the Fifth Frontier War on an alien planet near the Zhodani Consulate. [1]
Ordeal by Eshaar was the first published Traveller adventure by FASA. [1] Ordeal by Eshaar was written by J. Andrew Keith and William H. Keith Jr. and was published in 1981 by FASA as a digest-sized 44-page book. [2]
William A. Barton reviewed Ordeal by Eshaar in The Space Gamer No. 46. [1] Barton commented that "Ordeal by Eshaar is undoubtedly the best non-GDW Traveller adventure published by anyone so far – and it ranks high among GDW's own offerings. Recommended." [1]
Bob McWilliams reviewed Ordeal by Eshaar for White Dwarf #31, giving it an overall rating of 6 out of 10 for the novice, and 7 for the expert, and stated that "Well produced and with plenty going on, the designers have provided referees with as much help as can be fitted in booklets of this size, gone into detail at points in the adventure where it's necessary and not filled out with 'chrome'." [3]

Editions were published for GURPS, d20, and other role-playing game systems. From its origin and in the currently published systems, the game relied upon six-sided dice for random elements. Traveller has been featured in a few novels and at least two video games.
