is this the right place for this?
So I'm relatively new to tabletop RPGs, and I'm considering trying GURPS and I have a few questions. I GM for DnD a lot but I'm tired of the fantasy setting, and my attempts to branch out into other genres have sort of devolved into calvinball, and I heard GURPS was a good system for somebody like me. I'm planning on doing a dieselpunk/Golden age of comics/Indiana Jones/Raygun Gothic, type setting for my next game, Is GURPS a good system for this setting?, If so what supplements should I consider getting?, Do you have any miscellaneous tips?, Is it pronounced Gurps or Jerps?

Thanks in advance! sorry if I posted in the wrong place!
