So I’m a fan of GURPS Action. I don’t think anyone who has read the books could say otherwise. The rules offered in GURPS Action 2: Exploits alone are solid gold. GURPS Action 4: Specialists is similiar solid gold. Thus, it’s no surprise that I would want to add my own voice to the body of work that is GURPS Action. I […]

Designer’s Notes: The Incanter’s Grimoire
We always write the perfect book after the book is published. Seriously. I wish I’d had more space in GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 19: Incantation Magic and the insight to add to the main book then instead of writing this article later.

Dungeons and Dragons, video games, movies . . . all of these things have thrust the ancient religion of the Celts into the modern limelight.

Here’s the highlights for me from October and November 2017 (And yes, I know I’m beyond late – I try to do this at the beginning of the month. but stuff happened. So. Much. Stuff.) Authorial Highlights I submitted no articles in October or November and instead pulled from those I’d finished. I’m still writing a […]
