Reception

William A. Barton reviewed The Solomani Rim in The Space Gamer No. 56. [1] Barton commented that "Overall, The Solomani Rim should definitely appeal to any Traveller player or ref who has longed to adventure in the area of Terra or who simply wants to know as much about the universe as possible." [1]

Andy Slack reviewed Traveller Supplement 10: The Solomani Rim for White Dwarf #41, giving it an overall rating of 9 out of 10 for the novice and 2 for the expert, and stated that "I must say, I don't feel it has broken any new ground; and as GDW have said themselves, there are already enough subsector maps around."
