一部の方より，公開の希望があったので，掲載します。
初めて，デザイナーに直接，英文メールで質問したので，失礼が無いように必死だったのを覚えています。
努力は報われる気がします。

 thank you. My english is poor, but I do my best.
 
 Q1  Mothership did not stop ships movement, but disturbed economics connection.
   Is that right?
 
 Q2  Reaction force stack is any group of ships in a single hex or in single
   surface box.  Is the single hex stellar hex or system hex?
   I think reaction force was selected from a stellar hex or a surface box.
   Is that right?
 
 Q3  In reaction Phase, ships in the reaction force need not all jump to the
   same destination.
   Is the following movement right?
 
   Reaction forces in Sol. Imperial force in Barnard's star and Procyon.
   Some ships in reaction forces move to Barnard's star.
   Others move to Procyon through Junction.
 
 Q4  In Reaction Combat, "If those counter enter a situation where other
   friendly forces are also present, they may join the attack".
   It's means, reaction force and ships in surface box attack to enemy
   ships. Is that right?
 
 Q5  In interwar colonization, placed outport must be connected to the
   friendly world. Is "connected" mean same as economics "connected"?
 
 Q6  Where did Imperial replacements ship place?
   Is this same as Reinforcements or new production ships ?
 
 Q7  In Civil war, How many missiles factors the support force's minimum size?
   I think, Loyalist support forces had minimum 20 missiles factors,
   and Insurgent support forces had minimum 10 missiles factors.
 
 Q8  May placed outport marker and planetary defense marker would be change
   to unplaced condition?
 
 Q9  Imperial maintenance and Production phase. To do following sequence.
   1. Income computation , 2. Maintenance, 3. New production received and placed,
   4. Imperial Intervention check, 5. Appeals to the emperor, 6. Production
   Is that right?
 
 Q10 In surface combat phase. Attacker had only a PDM, a Ship and an Outport
   in surface box. but enemy had 2 troops.
   What did combat result ?
   All attacker eliminate / PDM and Ship eliminate / Do not surface combat.
 
 Q11 Tanker moved into 3rd system and stopped. Other ships pass through 3rd
   system. Another ships moved thorough the 3rd system. then Tanker move
   again to the other system.
   Do ship move 2 time in same movement phase?
 
 Imperium[Conflict1977]1st -> Imperium[GDW1990]2nd
 Which do I select, 1st or 2nd?
 Changed parts are listed below.

 Following abbreviation.（以下，省略）

 PS.
 If you did not understand my question, then I rewrite English and send again.
 
                                                               Sincerely

 I will work on answers to your questions.
 I am presently designing T5; it has not yet been published.
 
 Steve Jackson Games is currently publishing GURPS Traveller.
 
 I hope to have T5 published in the year 2000.
 
 I am also preparing a collector's edition reprint of the Classic Traveller 
 materials.

 Hi, Marc
 
 Here are partial answers to your questions. I'll have more answers later.
 I have waited your answers since May 6.
 You will send me more answers soon don't you?
 
 Please suggest following.
 Which does Imperial player select better winning campaign or the
 game's Victory?
 
 Japanese players were the purpose of winning campaign.
 They played Imperial, Appeal to Emperor on all turn.
 They lost the game, but next game start condition better than Terran.
 
 Is that right strategy?
                                                         Sincerely

 I agree, if the Imperial player wants to win the entire campaign, this 
 strategy has a strong possibility of winning.
