GURPS Traveller When Classic Traveller transitioned to its new edition -- MegaTraveller -- the timeline of the Traveller universe also advanced: to the Great Break and its aftermath. The Great Break was the beginning of the Rebellion that would ultimately sunder and destroy the Third Imperium. Its many events: the assassination of Emperor Strephon, the division of the empire into competing factions, the rippling consequences expanding out into Charted Space and beyond. Some players did not want their comfortable pre-Rebellion universe disrupted; they wanted a continuation of the previous story lines in a non-chaotic setting. In response, Traveller designer Marc Miller and Steve Jackson at Steve Jackson Games reached a remarkable accommodation: that a new version of Traveller would be created using the GURPS Generic Universal Role Playing System and the existing Traveller universe background, but with an exciting twist: the assassination of Strephon and all of its ensuing events did not happen; the universe and the timeline in GURPS Traveller continues the previous logical progression. Steve Jackson Games brought on board Loren Wiseman, former editor of the Journal of the Traveller Aid Society and developer of many Traveller titles when he worked at Game Designers' Workshop. Under his guidance, this alternate universe for Traveller ultimately acquired his name: it became the LorenVerse. The terms became synonymous: GURPS Traveller and the LorenVerse.
