===House Rules Overview===
The biggest changes to the standard Traveller Rules are the result of setting changes:
==FTL==
In the standard Traveller rules, FTL travel is via a jump drive, which allows travel of 1-6 parsecs in the course of a week. In ATTS, FTL travel is achieved via hyperspace threads constructed by a precursor alien race, and a drive called the Needle drive. 
==Gravity Manipulation==
The ATTS universe has no means of creating artificial gravity fields, other than via thrust or rotation. This means that all space ships are "tail sitters", where there is only "gravity" while the craft is under acceleration/deceleration. Therefore, most standard Traveller spaceship plans are not applicable to the ATTS setting. 
==Repulsor Tech==
Limited means of repelling gravity have been developed, so that craft like speeders do exist. Grav vehicles as portrayed by the Traveller rules are not applicable.
==Character Skills==
Any Traveller skills related to the above, such as Engineering (Jump) are not available, and instead are substituted by setting specific skills, such as Engineering (Needle Drive).
