Default GURPS is on DriveThruRPG!

I'm shocked! And happy.

I didn't need that, but the world did.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or words to that effect.

I'd been wondering if they'd consider putting older stuff on DriveThruRPG, balancing decreased revenue from Warehouse 23 with increased exposure through another outlet. Looks like they're giving it a shot. Good luck, SJ Games!

What's next, a GURPS 3e Bundle of Holding?

This is excellent news. I think that, in the modern era, places like Drivethru serve the role Local Gaming Stores once served (and I suppose still serve, in places) of showing off the game to people who are interested in the hobby but not aware that this particular system is an option.

Holy Moly.

Combine this with what appears to be development using Fantasy Grounds and I have to wonder what else they might be amenable to.

This is great news. I've been thinking that GURPS needs to reach a wider audience and this is a great start.

That said, I hope that the various free PDFs get put up there asap to help improve the odds that people will give it a look.

I'm interested in seeing that GURPS Horror and GURPS Banestorm are the top two (just above Characters and Campaigns).

I have no idea what that means!

I'm seeing that in the "hottest" section, suggesting that people have bought more of those in the few hours they've been up than the other titles.

It mostly means that that the people buying already have the basic set so they're buying setting books.
