Default Re: Traveller and the Infinite Worlds campaign

One idea is a separate Infinite Worlds campaign that has nothing to do with homeline. For example a Parachronic Projector might reach the Traveller - The New Era universe from the standard GURPS Traveller timeline, instead of a past echo, we have a future echo. The Parachronic Projector is invented in 1120 in the GURPS timeline, and not at all in "the New Era" timeline because of the war and the Virus which destroyed all the data so painstakingly collected on the Luna Research Station. There are other timelines as well, some historic echoes, some alternate histories, and some timelines where humaniti hasn't evolved, others where Germany won World War II, but this Reich is comperable to the Imperium in Tech Level and may be developing its own parachronic Projectors. The Reich Universe doesn't have much life in it, in this world their were no Ancients. Humanity evolved by chance, and their are not many alternates within its reach besides that of GURPS Traveller. The Reich's universe has planets with no life on them or planets that are slowly being terraformed by the Nazi Empire, but its a fairly empty universe, and with their parachronic projectors they see "greener pastures" in the Traveller Alternate. Most Nazi Worlds are overcrowded with high tech levels, since these are the few worlds they managed to terraform, the rest are space stations. Naturally they are looking for easy places to colonize and in the other Universe they see alot of life bearing planets. Guess what the Third Reich is going to do.
