Re: GURPS Girl Genius
A bit too wacky for my tastes, but I like a lot of elements of the Girl Genius setting, and I can certainly see myself picking this one up.
Given the subject matter some (preferably somewhat balanced) rules for that style of mad science at-the-speed-of-plot Gadgeteering would be really cool. I wonder if their invention-creating characters will use vanilla Gadgeteering (Quick), the flexible magic system as someone here suggested, something like Modular Abilities, or something else entirely?

From someone other than Phil? That seems...blasphemous.

Re: GURPS Girl Genius
There's one clip from the actual comic (in their Christmas Special spoof of Cinderella) that I feel needs to be included in GURPS Girl Genius, the page where she utters the Heterodyne corollary to Clarke's Third Law:
“A sufficiently analyzed magic is indistinguishable from Science!”Preferably, this would introduce the section on the Sparks and their, umm, Science! (Incidentally, the “Realm Magic recast as Science” from the final issue of Pyramid strikes me as a perfect system for GURPS Girl Genius.) |

Re: GURPS Girl Genius
Very much this! This alone would be worth the price of the entire book. ;)

Re: GURPS Girl Genius
People may have seen this already: Studio Foglio confirm GURPS Girl Genius is pretty much complete and is going to be an SJG Kickstarter.
