Reception

William A. Barton reviewed Broadsword in The Space Gamer No. 52. Barton commented that "Broadsword should prove an enjoyable Traveller adventure, especially to players who are militarily-inclined."
Tony Watson reviewed Traveller Adventure 7: Broadsword for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "This adventure should certainly appeal to those players who wish to be interstellar mercenaries. The action on Garda-Vilis is interesting in and of itself and provides a good example of how such mercenary tickets can be set up. The large amount of background material included can allow the referee to use this as a springboard for further adventures involving mercenaries aboard the Broadsword."
