World Generation

As per the Mongoose Traveller/Classic Traveller rules with the following exceptions:

Starport roll is at -1, -2 for pop 6, -3 for pop 5, -4 for pop 4 or less. Refers to the biggest atarport on the planet, often multiples exist.

Population is maxed at 8 for everywhere except Earth. Colonies simply haven't been there long enough to get that big.

Population is still rolled on 2d6-2, with -1 for size 0-2 or A+, -1 for atmosphere not 5,6 or 8, +1 if it is 5,6 or 8. An additional -1 is levied per 5 full parsecs away from Earth – the frontiers are sparsely inhabited.

Government stat refers to the number of different governments, what type they are is up to the GM.

Number of 'states' table

Roll d6 vs population, roll accordingly

Population	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
d6 roll	1	1	1	1	1	1	1	2	1d3+1
2	1	1	1	1	1	1d3+1	1d3+1	1d6+1
3	1	1	1	1	1d3+1	1d6+1	1d6+1	2d4
4	1	1	1	1d3+1	1d4+1	1d6+1	2d4	3d3
5	1	1	2	1d4+1	1d6+1	2d4	2d4	3d4
6	1	2	1d3+1	1d6+1	2d4	2d6	2d4	3d4

For the proportion controlled by each state roll 1d10 for each state and divvy up the population accordingly. Eg Ares has a population of 3 000 000 and 5 states. Rolls are 1, 5, 6, 10 and 10. State 1 has 1/32 of the population = 93 750, state 2 has 5/32 = 468 750 and so on.

Law level refers to the largest state on the planet and is based on population, not govt type.

Tech level always has a +2 and a maximum of 12.
