Re: Pyramid articles you want to see
Pyramid: Pyramids
The articles could be looks at pyramids through the lenses of various genres. Pyramid: Dogfight A look at aerial combat with a focus on WWI and WWII. Though I could see some odds and ends concerning aerial combat in other genres. |

An issue dedicated to burial practices, what valuables and/or traps are left, etc. could work. Along with descriptions of what supernatural dangers their cultures believed lingered with and around the dead.

Re: Pyramid articles you want to see
I like the GURPS write up for guns, so maybe some specific by era/genre gun write up articles.
On the larger scale I'd like an article on larger weapon systems Similarly I like the existing articles for iconic vehicles, ("tiger terror", "devil's chariot" etc) so I'd love to see more of them. I like the write ups of iconic fight scenes that appear on various blogs. I think these do a great job of both capturing the imagination and show casing the system in use (I'm thinking of stuff like the writes up of Black Widow in Ironman 2 on "Gaming Ballistic", or the gun fight write ups on "Shooting Dice" ). You wouldn't need a whole articles of them them but maybe a series of one offs. I also think these can be a good showcase for rulings in very specific situations that may not appear in the rules. A Martial Arts Techniques & Combinations workshop, again maybe showcasing some iconic ones from fiction (this could lead out of the fight scene write ups).

"Modern mundane times" - Adventures in the so-called real world, without Voodoo-Hoodoo, Mumbo-Jumbo or brooding Vampires.
Suggestions for real-life hot spots and campaigns would be esp. welcome. I really liked the hint in High Tech about the oil companies as patrons. |

Re: Pyramid articles you want to see
I want to second this because I'd really like to see this happen. Knowing Your Own Strength is my most-used article. I'd like to see some expansion on Strength-related rules that it didn't cover as well. How do I summon Kromm to make this happen?
