Continue readingBy the RAW, the way you create technopath in GURPS is by taking some powers from Machine Telepathy (see GURPS Powers, p. 130) or Cyberpsi (see GURPS Psionic Powers, p. 30) – but what if you want more? Inspired by this recent thread (the second one to pop up in as many months) I weighed […]
Continue readingToday, is a special day for us GURPSers, today is the tenth birthday of GURPS, the previous edition was printed in 1988, and the first and second in 1986. That’s some heady stuff right there for a gamer, especially considering that other game systems (*cough* Dungeons and Dragons *cough*) have been through six editions since then – […]
Continue readingI read about this over on +Douglas Cole‘s blog and it got me thinking: Over on Google+ and the RPG Stack Exchange, +Jeff Demers was asking for help on how to set up a encounter where the players were being hunted. I’ve done this scenario so much in my twenty odd years of GMing I can do it […]

I’m a fan of psionic powers and especially PK’s GURPS Psionic Powers (which I playtested), so writing this up was easy. In fact…I already had it written out (along with a style for every power listed […]
Continue readingAs I am sure you are aware of, I’m currently playing in +Douglas Cole‘s Alien Menace campaign. So far, it’s been a blast. But after our first mission was completed I asked about how others felt about the Teamwork perk and Doug said (and I’m paraphrasing) “Yeah, every character who completed the mission gets that […]

Like leprechauns, they are compelled to perform a specific task, in this case domestic chores. Unlike leprechauns, they like what they do and they do it well.
