Finally, in 1983, GDW released Starter Traveller, intended at giving a younger audience a streamlined and simpler set of Traveller rules. This release dropped some of the more complicated rules, but added a different starship combat system (using range bands, much like the personal combat system, as opposed to vector movement) which many consider a great improvement on the original. Except where noted, Starter Traveller uses the 1981 edition rules. This final version includes yet a few more rules changes or clarifications as well as one major change in the form of a simplified star ship combat system that uses range bands instead of 2D vectors.
