[1] Snapshot is a game of starship boarding and personal combat derived from Traveller.

[2] Azhanti High Lightning is the third Traveller boardgame published by GDW.

[4] Peter Darvill-Evans reviewed Snapshot for White Dwarf #16, giving it an overall rating of 8 out of 10, and stated that "it is an invaluable adjunct to Traveller, allowing close combat to be resolved in detail, yet quickly and simply ; as a game in itself it is perhaps less satisfactory, although still one of the best man-to-man combat systems on the market; and the presentation is in every way excellent.

[2] Watson commented that "While Snapshot is a solid game in its own right, I think it truly realizes its potential when used with Traveller.
