Consider the idea of... Jeff Zeitlin 06 Dec 2019 12:12 UTC

... a MEDICAL career in Traveller.

What should it look like?

If using the Mongoose model, what specializations should there be? (I lean
toward something roughly like "General Practice", "Surgery", "Research" -
but that may not be the best way to do it.)

In the Classic/Mega model, obviously College and Medical School
"pre-enlistment" options should be required, not options.

In any version, what skills should be included in the career, and of them,
which should be converted to cascade/cluster - or which should be converted
from cascade/cluster to single skill?

If you allow for incorporating the GURPS concepts of Advantages and
Disadvantages, what A/D should apply to the career?

Feedback, please, and relatively quickly - I'd like to present a Medical
career as one of the articles in the forthcoming Compassion Corps issue of
Freelance Traveller...
