[Fanzine] The Path of Cunning - Page 3

johndallman · 02-15-2020, 03:37 PM

The second issue of The Path of Cunning, apparently still the world's only GURPS fanzine, is now available for download.

It was written by Paul Blackwell, Phil Masters, Sean Punch, Bill Stoddard, Roger Bell_West and John Dallman. Artwork by Kurt Wilcken, Dan Smith, Wikimedia Commons and Dover Books, with letters from Onno Meyer, Vicky Molokh, David L. Pulver, Dalton Spence and Dave Waring.

Where? I followed your link, and could only see issue 1.

Sorry, had to reload. Got it.

Nice work. I especially like David Pulver's letter where it broke down so much.
The Astral section of the Infinite Cabal was interesting.
All three designers articles were also highly appreciated.
The dogfighting article was also very nice.
The others mostly lacked personal appeal due to genre or something rather than quality.

Awesome, I just downloaded it - off to read...

Interesting reading, even if nothing big immediately leaps out as useful to what I'm doing at the moment. The stuff on the astral realm has given me ideas about how I might represent Duat, should my players go there.

Some of the smaller things are more relevant, like the Amateur perk. Something like a jack of a few trades talent.

Neither Roger nor myself will be at FnordCon, but we'd like to provide some printed copies for people there.

We'll pay for the printing, but we'd like to enlist help from someone who will be going to the con to get the copies there, and make sure they get put somewhere that people can pick them up. This really needs to be someone who lives near Austin, or will be driving there, since any significant number of copies will be a bit cumbersome to take by air as luggage.

Can anyone help?

I've messaged Doug he'll be there and we both know someone nearby who you could ship it to.

Need to reread it when more awake, but what I saw was interesting.
