Playing GURPS with Fantasy Grounds

[hal]

For what it is worth, having the equipment sub categories separate out like they do now makes it worth my while to create an OLD WEST module and maybe someday running a GURPS OLD WEST campaign.

I've got the 1880 Census in PDF format, which means i can run through it state by state, county by county, to get a listing of towns and populations (including territories by the way). Not sure if anyone would find that useful - but now that I have my GURPS ADVENTURE GUNS data file for use with GURPS CHARACTER ASSISTANT, it shouldn't be too hard to create ALL of the equipment lists that one could find in various OLD WEST game supplements.

Thanks again for the hard work you and others have been putting into this.

Thanks! It's a labour of love and I'm glad others see utility in it. :)

As I mentioned elsewhere I brought Curtis Handsaker (Z09SS)'s conversions of 3e weapons to 4e to the GURPSwiki with some reformatting to make them more useful

* Weapons of GURPS Old West (1830 to 1917)
* Weapons of World War I (1870 to 1918)

Thank you Ronnke for all the work you do! I've had a lot of fun with my group on Fantasy Grounds. Especially in these trying times, this has enabled me to keep at least one hobby alive.

With the dwindling sales of RPG books and PDFs, I think this would be a great opportunity to move into the digital realm full monty. Having a commercial Dungeon Fantasy RPG extension and modules for these online platforms would be very beneficial to the GURPS world.

Thanks! I'm glad people have been able to move their face to face games online and continue the role roleplaying fun.

Going online with my personal games has had an unexpected benefit. Friends which are ordinarily not able to make may face to face games, have been able to join my online games. I've even introduced a friend completely new to RPGs. Sadly, once things return to normal, those new players won't be able to continue face to face. :(

As for commercial material, I can't see anything happening in the near future, but longer term - maybe?! It might be an avenue for third party publishers producing content under license. There is also no reason the GURPS community can't produce and distribute adventure modules, as long as they are free and don't use copyrighted material.

A big shout out to you Ronnke and others on this venture. I recently joined FGU and I've been enjoying the fruits of your labour. Good on ya.

I hope SJG will open up the avenue to making its products fully supported/accessible with the FGU interface, but you have certainly carved a path towards that goal.

Cheers,
