Guest Post by Emily “Bruno” Smirle When designing a game setting with supernatural or mystical elements, it may be necessary to create a firm definition of the “soul” – what is it, who has it, what does it do for (or to) you? Theologists and philosophers have debated the subject endlessly throughout human history; the […]

GURPS101: Intermediate Range Modifiers
Yet another “micro-rule” – this time playing with Range modifiers for GURPS. First, let’s look at the current existing range bands: Short-Range (-1/yard like a spell, p. B239) Normal-Range (per p.

Gamemaster’s Guidepost: When to Follow, Make, Ignore, Bend, or Break Rules
GURPS is one of those games where if you try to use every rule for every circumstance you’re going to create an unusable pile of crap.

Standard GURPS magic can leave a lot to be desired, but it has places where it just works perfectly. I decided to come up with a few new spells for enchantments for my own games and thought I’d share them. You’ll need GURPS Magic, of course. . . . . . if you’d like to […]

Gamemaster’s Guidepost: Dungeon Fantasy Boss Battles I
Today I’m going to talk about designing boss battles in Dungeon Fantasy, but to do that let’s chat about what a boss is. Dungeon Fantasy breaks monsters down into three groups and I usually add two more (those familiar with my article “It’s a Threat!” already know about these additional two types but I’ve added them here for ease […]
