Can the rules can be interpreted as allowing them and does one or two mentions of them makes them “canon”?
TNE: Yes, no rule restricts their construction, and an example is present in the Regency Sourcebook. CT/MT: The adventure ‘Leviathan’, not written by Mark Miller (the author of Traveller), mentions them. Subsequent source books published in CT and MT contain no reference to them. Also, a ‘no jump ship under 100t’ rule exists which seems to make this construction illegal. An alternative suggestion is to have a jump drive surrounded by a collapsible framework holding the jump net. The contraption is energized from outside and uses the same grace period that drop tanks do to get far enough away from the ship not to interfere with jump field. This may make trouble for the background, since ships could be energized the same way. References: XTML and TML digests in late January and February, 1996. Contributors: David P.
