Re: Kickstarter - GURPS Pyramid Scheme
I am still working my way through them, but I'm loving everything I've read so far. Science in Your Fiction was worth the entry price alone, I love well integrated minigames.

I accept that "The Company" is most niche, and of greatest interest to the small group who followed that campaign on my LJ for years (and perhaps to "GURPS Action historians" – an even smaller group). It's likely going to be in fourth place for most people. In between, whether you like "Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes" or "Tactical Looting" more will depend on your genre preferences, mostly. I will say that my recurring theme was "different modes of play," which I think scientific research, sports matches, and speed runs all qualify as. "The Company" is definitely the odd one out, being a campaign seed.

Re: Kickstarter - GURPS Pyramid Scheme
They've started adding the KS purchases to W23 as well. Thanks!

Re: Kickstarter - GURPS Pyramid Scheme
On Page 47 of Modern/Action I, the "Mini Cooper" is specified as "Mini Cooper (new)". Should I assume that old or second-hand mini coopers tend to have noticeably worse stats in a somewhat arbitrary fashion, given there's no corresponding "Mini Cooper (old)"?

Re: Kickstarter - GURPS Pyramid Scheme
It is listed as TL8, so that makes sense. Thanks.
