the very fact that COTI is almost straightforward ANTI TNE is why i eventually lost interest in the site. it was difficult to find any recurring interest in The New Era from a majority of the sites regulars. The best of CT is well represented there, and like all of us, (mostly) I cut my teeth on Classic travelers as my first scifi RPG.
It DOES have several great threads for adventure hooks, many of which are TNE friendly. Probably the only reason I stayed there for as long as I did.

It DOES have several great threads for adventure hooks, many of which are TNE friendly. Probably the only reason I stayed there for as long as I did.
