Thanks, I like how it turned out.

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
Good post.
I've often recommended using the general Task Difficulty modifiers from p. 345-346 for keeping the game moving when you don't recall all the specific modifiers off the top of your head, or the roll isn't important enough to anybody to work them all out. |

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
Happy Thurpsday! In a continuation of last week's topic, I offer up a few more thoughts on streamlining and customizing GURPS to be the exact match for your game that you want it to be.
GURPS -- the Swiss army knife of RPGs.

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
A few more doodads for GURPS GMs and players this week, in an appendix to last year's popular My GM Kit post. Check out these Doublesix Dice, a new dice shaker, and a kitchen multi-timer that's perfect for those with the GURPS Luck advantage.
Enjoy!

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
As the GM of a game where 3 PCs have Luck, I bought that 4-PC Luck timer about 3 seconds after I saw it on your blog. Thanks!

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
Dripton, I'm curious if you have received your timer, and what you think now that it's in hand?

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
I specifically try to post responses to common questions and misperceptions about GURPS.
This week on the chopping block is, "Where are all the monsters for GURPS?" To which I reply, "Right here!" I tried to include all the biggies, but let me know if I missed any of your favorites.

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
Happy GURPSDay!
As I am elbows-deep in game prep for a convention this weekend, I put together a short list of suggestions for preparing one-shots. Hopefully you find something useful, entertaining, or both. Now with 14% more Hunter Thompson references!

Happy GURPSDay!
I ran a convention one-shot this past weekend set in Locus, the multi-dimensional city. It went very well, and a good time was had by all. Looking through the adventure and notes reveals more details about the setting and the direction it's taking -- what do you think?

Re: Game Geekery - GURPS Content Posts
Whaaat? Even more ways to speed up GURPS combat, using colored dice sets and/or numbered tokens to consolidate multiple rolls into a single toss?
Yup! If you love rolling dice by the double-handful and hearing their click-clack across the table drown out the cries of your enemies... this is the post for you.
