I really hope folks like it. I took a lot of the stylistic inspiration from GURPS Mass Combat so the two would really mesh and feel like they belong in the same game.

I also wrote TOWER OF THE MOON (Night Owl) on DriveThru RPG, which came out fairly recently, but that's not for GURPS. And as Doug has mentioned, I'm working on some TFT adventures for him, and hope to do more TFT for SJ Games.

One trouble with maintaining the list is some books sneak in without a hint and others are hinted in ways that they may not be connected. A lot of guesswork is involved and sometimes whomever is running the Speculation tread that year can simply guess wrong.It helps a lot if the authors check the list now and then so feel free to correct me if anything under your name is incorrect.

Right now recent updates for one status are not being shown as the hints exceed the word count limit in the forum. Hopefully that's fixed soon as things moved to "Published" status.

Just FYI, the move is over and I have broadband again. We're now waiting for my project to make its way through the SJ Games queue to where the playtest can start.

This is something of a tangent to the thread, but right now the digital-only SJG items on W23 are 897, while on DTRPG it's up to 712 after today's update. Most of the shortfall looks like it's GURPS 4e material.

EDIT: Nevermind, it's a sort issue on my end.

Makes sense, the older material on a site where it gets a lower revenue due to commissions/fees while newer stuff mostly on the main system where its a higher margin. DTRPG is basically a marketing tool or maybe call it a distributor

Looks like it's two TFT items this week.

Yup, these two.

I have a bookmark to show new digital goods from Steve Jackson Games. It stopped sorting a while ago, so I can tell (generally) when there's something new when the count changes. It went from 24 yesterday to 26 today.

By process of elimination, I figured out it was these two TFT items.
