Reception edit

William A. Barton reviewed the first issue of Far Traveller in The Space Gamer No. 61.[1] Barton commented that "Overall, Far Traveller looks like it should be an excellent addition to the world of Traveller products. High Passage will be missed, but Far Traveller should go a long way to fill the void."[1]
