Details of your scenario:
Traveller is a hard(ish) science fiction adventure set in the far future. For any fans of Firefly/Serenity, this is (allegedly) the game that Joss Wheden based his masterpiece from. There are also similarities to Cowboy Bebop, The Expanse, 40k, Aliens... basically almost any Sci-fi franchise could be compared to Traveller in some way.

For an in-depth explanation, I highly recommend checking out Seth Skorkowsky on YouTube. He has a video series giving an overview of the system. The Glass Cannon Network also did a Traveller one shot that actually turned out to be a two-shot, as well as a series featuring Seth. To give the very short version of the summary: Traveller is a d6 system set apart from other RPG's mainly by its unique character generation, which is a mini game in itself, where the characters basically live out their backstories and the dice will largely determine your character, as well as your personal choices.

Combat: combat is deadly and unforgiving. Therefore as new players I will try to ease the party into more situations with alternatives to fighting, if possible.
Lastly, about me: I have a lot of experience as a player and DM for Pathfinder, 3e, and 5e. However I am new to Traveller, so it will be a learning experience for all. Looking forward to the potential this game has and hope to meet you soon, travellers!

You tagged me in my lfg forum. After reading you can call me intrigued and it starts an hour after I am available so I see no issues. Just need to know if I need my on FG subscription or if I can use demo.
