I've been playing and running GURPS for quite a while now, but I never really bothered with the forums until now. Anyway, this is the template set for my current Steampunk/Biopunk campaign. The starting wealth values on the social lenses assume an effective TL of 7, the Occultist requires Ritual Path Magic and Pyramid #66 (for the magic talents and the speed-casting technique), and the Psychic requires Psionic Powers and Psis. The intent is that a player will choose an occupational template and a social lens, then spend any remaining points on other lenses. Each occupational template also lists a 50 point "Dedicated" lens, for those who just want to be even better at their specialty. Only the first four fit in this post, so the rest will be up soon.
