Reception

[edit]

Bob McWilliams reviewed Starships and Spacecraft for White Dwarf #15, giving it an overall rating of 5 out of 10, and stated that "If you feel you really cannot design and draw your own starship layouts (surely one of the pleasures of being a Traveller Referee), this is for you."[3]

William A. Barton reviewed Starships & Spacecraft in The Space Gamer No. 32.[1] Barton commented that "Starships & Spacecraft should prove quite helpful in making your Traveller campaign even more realistic to your players. It deserves a place in your Traveller library."[1]
