Continue readingGamemaster’s Guidepost: Building Player Characters to the Concept
One thing that I pretty much always do in all games I run is building player characters “to the concept” vs. “on a point budget.” As you can imagine, this threw some of my players in my Aeon campaign for a loop. Matter of fact, one player said: “Wait, you want me to build this […]
Continue readingGURPS101: Injury Resistance
In GURPS there are three forms of damage: basic damage, penetrating damage, and injury. Basic damage is the amount rolled on the dice for the attack, penetrating damage is the amount after applying Damage Resistance and other protections (e.g., Injury Tolerance), and injury is the total amount of hit points you suffered from that attack. […]
Continue readingDesigner’s Notes: Above the Law
This article was something rather interesting to write – it came from a kernel of an idea from my Aeon supers campaign: how do powers and the law interact? There is a tiny section in GURPS Basic Set about Spell Legality – but that’s it. So I got to thinking, how could I expand it? […]

My small circle of Aeon players (well, it’s not really small anymore – there’s like 20 of them) have been providing lots for me to chew on recently. It has put me in a position where I have to really look at the rules for character traits when trying to create new superpowers. One thing […]

As promised by prophecy the next installment of how things are going – this time for the current most long-running campaign in Aeon: The B-Team. Additionally, since I’ve had a few folks ask me about why I demarcate game sessions into “Seasons” and want an explanation I wanted to give one. Basically, the way I typically […]
Continue readingCarpe Blogiem: Aeon Team Rosters – Part I
I’ve been a busy little beaver – and if my keyboard hand’t crapped out on me at the beginning of the month I’d’ve had a lot more done. As it stands, I feel pretty good at the state of my campaign (s). I’ve add another team to the roster (C-Team) and I’ve almost completed everything […]
Continue readingGamemaster’s Guidepost: Super-ST Options
One thing that has come up in my Aeon campaign is Super-ST and how it does what it does. One of my (few) house rules is that Costs Fatigue is worth more – I just use PK’s version because it works better. But the discussion of why Super-ST should be discounted more because of that houserule […]
