Traveller Adventure 7: Broadsword is a 1982 role-playing game adventure for Traveller published by Game Designers' Workshop.
Broadsword is an adventure which focuses on the 800-ton Broadsword mercenary cruiser class of ships. [1]
Broadsword was written by Loren K. Wiseman and Marc W. Miller. [1] The Broadsword starship section of the book was written by Marc Miller and originally published in Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society, Issue 8 in 1981. [2]
William A. Barton reviewed Broadsword in The Space Gamer No. 52. [1] Barton commented that "Broadsword should prove an enjoyable Traveller adventure, especially to players who are militarily-inclined." [1]
Tony Watson reviewed Traveller Adventure 7: Broadsword for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "This adventure should certainly appeal to those players who wish to be interstellar mercenaries. The action on Garda-Vilis is interesting in and of itself and provides a good example of how such mercenary tickets can be set up. The large amount of background material included can allow the referee to use this as a springboard for further adventures involving mercenaries aboard the Broadsword." [2]
