Pyramid Dungeon Collection
I've been reading through my copy of Pyramid Dungeon Collection and it's truly one of the best GURPS books I've bought in recent years. It is overflowing with really fun material. The locations alone make it worth the price. The adventures and advice articles are devilishly good icing on the cake.
I hope the book becomes available through Warehouse 23 and, ideally, as a PDF. I will recommend it highly to others in my GURPS and DFRPG circles. Although it is not specifically intended for DFRPG, most of it will work just fine without any other GURPS books. Indeed, for people who have started with DFRPG, the book will be especially useful because they won't have seen any of the articles before. (Though I'm surprised at how quickly my own memories have faded. Despite having read just about every issue of Pyramid ever published, I remember very little from this collection.) |

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
Ditto. That's why I try to keep a list on 'genre' notes with Pyramid articles listed in it for reference.

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
I still haven't recieved my pyramid collection pdf I bought through the backerkit of magic items2 kickstarter. I suspect they will have to fulfill those first. Though it would be weird for them not to sell it again in some way.

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
Phil suggests using this to get it fixed; Please contact kickstart@sjgames.com for support.
It worked for me, it will set you up with a help desk account that is used to track your issue.

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
Say, this one has been bugging me, but what template would a caravan Noble (p. 84) use if he’s not the adventuring kind? Agent with no discretionary points in weapons?

If one don't want adventuring-grade aristocrats, I think one falls back on the "moral equivalent of ambulatory bags of cash." They're less characters and more loud, demanding plot devices, several levels of Status and Wealth, possibly with an irksome disadvantage like Jealousy or Overconfident, surrounded by guards. Really, that kind of noble could be any template or none at all. But that's really a question back to the GM: if you don't want an adventuring-type noble, what do you want? BTW, I don't know if anybody's mentioned it, but has anybody noticed that "Wellsprings of Creation" provides a framework which ties up all the other locations in the Pyramid Dungeon Collection, the freestanding adventures published to date, Caverntown, Tower of Octavius, Hellsgate, and a whole bunch of fantasy-friendly locations from 3rd edition Pyramid into a single Dungeon Fantasy setting?

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
If you call W23 they will manually do it right then. That's what I did.

Re: Pyramid Dungeon Collection
I'm curious on this, I cant recall what kickstarter I got my hard copy of The Pyramid Collection and cant tell from my kickstarter records. I think I must have gotten it in Backerkit.
Was it part of the Monsters 2 kickstarter? If only the Magic Items 2 I missed that one due to an unexpected bill that came up so missed out on that one.

The physical copy debuted with the monsters 2 book. It seemed odd there was no pdf, but ensured I’d order the print book (in case a pdf didn’t happen, partially). The PDF was offered with the magic items 2. So now we True Fans have both :)
