Happy GURPSday, everyone!

In today's post, I finally wrap up my series on creating my PC's home town, with a full, travel-guide style Gazetteer entry for Dunmoss.

Enjoy!

For today's post, some reflections on how GURPS did in 2016. The short answer: amazing well!

GURPS in 2016 - What the hell was THAT?

In today's post, I offer a retrospective view of the blog in 2016. I started The Collaborative Gamer in early January 2016, so this is also a kind of birthday!

2016 in Review, from my own perspective. (What a Year!)

Two exciting GURPS-related posts recently (exciting for me that is!)

Happy Birthday to Myself - and announcing a new campaign!

Thoughts on setting up a regular game.

Enjoy! And I'll certainly let you know how the new group goes, if you're interested...

I don't think weekly is necessary... but regular is. First Thursday of the month could work, though that is spaced out.

Otherwise, is this really good advise, and stuff I wish I had when I first started doing real-time gaming with folks who weren't relatives about a year ago.

Thanks for this positive comment. Yes, I don't think weekly is 100% necessary either - there are certainly a lot of long-running games out there that meet less often. So I might have overstated that in my initial post, for polemical effect! And you're quite right to point that out. But I do prefer gaming weekly, and to my taste it seems like a good goal to shoot for.

Happy Gurpsday, folks!

In today's post, I prepare for my new group's first session (Tomorrow! Gulp!) by fleshing out the city they're currently located in.

So my new gaming group played its first session yesterday - a trial game of Dungeon Fantasy.

In today's post, I offer some reflections on our first ever session.

Hopefully I'll be better at this next session...
