Pyramid #3/116: Locations
Coming up with "crunch" is hard – all those stats, all those rules! – but that's nothing compared to the effort needed to create a truly memorable backdrop for adventure. Engaging locations defy being turned into formulas and procedures. Fortunately, there are resources that help, like the GURPS Locations and GURPS Hot Spots series. But you can never have enough, which is why this month we bring you Pyramid #3/116: Locations, featuring:As the saying goes: Al-Phasmaq, the City of Ships— Store Link: http://www.warehouse23.com/products/SJG37-2716

really looking forward to reading the Hill House and Pharos articles. They sound really cool and useful :)

Re: Pyramid #3/116: Locations
Nope. I only have trouble viewing PDFS on this website.

Re: Pyramid #3/116: Locations
I'm not sure what to say . . . I've tried to download the preview on two different devices (a tablet and a desktop computer), on two different computer networks, and both times I've been successful.
If you want to send me an email, I can try to troubleshoot this . . . but — without more reports — it sounds like something specific to how your PDF-viewing option is interacting with our system, rather than anything more widespread. |

Re: Pyramid #3/116: Locations
I downloaded it again, and I didn't see anything, then I saw something on tv and the PDF appeared. I guess I had to wait. The screen was white before the image appeared, then it was white after I moved the screen back up to read something after I had read it. I don't know why the writing disappeared.

Re: Pyramid #3/116: Locations
Question: does anyone have any random tables or lists for quickly generating quirks, perks, and features for locations (p. 39 in the Random Though Table)? I found this to be a fascinating idea, but am pinched for ideas to keep from repeating the same ones over and over again.
