I gotta say all this praise is humbling. I never thought my lil blog would ever get this much attention.

While in the "to work on" pile as of now, I do have plans on doing some Spaceships write ups of two "Earth Republic" troop corvettes, a destroyer and some bug ships.

Related to the meme we have some "Would you like to know more?" banners:

Personal fave due to cross genre reference:

And "The More You Know" meets "Would you like to know more?":

I've been really impressed with your armor write-ups. We need more crunchy detail like this in GURPS for ultratech gear. You are helping to fill the gap with your work!

Oh god that first one.... I think I just cracked a rib!

Also the more you know one... I'm gonna find a use for that one heh.

But yeah, I'm trying to do my best in that regard. I get that Fantasy is were the money is and GURPS needs to make sure that the bills are paid before they can throw the money around at more low return projects so I'm gonna hold the torch as best I can until Dave can finally get the VDS and Armory books into our grubby lil' hands.

For next week I'm taking a quick break from outright offensive gear to take a crack at a piece of gear that's a little more universally useful (though I might still have a "fun one" in store as well assuming I can make the numbers works and I can weasel in the free time...).

I also do have a bit of a follow up to my battlesuit post in the wing but... well... I got some special plans for that one :D

And I'm liking that you're liking my tech write ups as well heh.

Usually when I stat out something I tend to get this kinda "burst insperaiin" where everything about what I'm doing a write up comes to me in a flash from how it looks to what it does to a bit on its history. It's almost like I'm somehow downloading it off of some cosmic server heh.

That makes doing the writes up easy... at lest in theory... my brain works a bit funny so the hard part is taking what I get and turning into something that a normal, rational human being can understand heh.

Oh, and this for my readers in general. Let me know of anything you all would like for me to stat up. Questions and requests help motivate my mind better then I can on my own heh.

I just did a quick review of Ghostdancer's fist actual full on GURPS book, Dungeon Fantasy 19: Incantation Magic and cover why I think it's awesome and a good buy even if you're not a fantasy gamer like me!

Ok two things that would be convenient.
Gauss guns in a nice variety.
Personal armor for civilians, bodyguards, police, etc rather than high end military. Stuff a typical UT adventure might be able to wear.
