Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game Discussion Thread

[Pseudonym]

A while ago, there was a forum contest for forum members to submit ideas for characters and items, and the winners were chosen by random draw. I thought the winning selections were to be featured in the material, but I can't find them all. Did I only imagine the part about being included?

Found the thread

And apparently, it doesn't say anything about the items being included.

I must be mad, but I wrote an 8000+ words review on the box and the GM Screen:

https://blindmapmaker.wordpress.com/...ered-by-gurps/
(caution may contain ads by wordpress, an ad blocker is advised)

Short version: It's a really good introduction to GURPS, very accessible and fun to read. It doesn't contain a whole lot of new material. Still extremely useful for recruiting new GURPS cultists... erm players.

Do not Google this in work...

I'm familiar with the NSFW meaning, but can't think what it would mean in a dungeon delving context. Do the PC's get terriers and hounds?

To dog: to follow persistently.

(Can't say I like that particular rule...)

Well, you can. Good old DF is right over there... as you rightly mention.

Time will tell whether this particular overlooking of size in DFRPG will lead to invincibly over-armored barbarians, haplessly under-armored Halflings, and perhaps a bit of grumbling from players.

Well, I just made my first houserule if I ever run DFRPG... and I haven't even gotten my books.

I have been quite pleased with my scan of DFRPG, but I have made some tweaks already.

1) I extracted all the forms, so that I can just pull up the one I need.

2) I extracted all the back page table sheets and added them to the GM Screen.

What Mods are others doing?

[Nemoricus]

Speaking of forms, could we get the character sheet as a separate pdf? Not everyone has the tools or know how to do so and I can say from personal experience that's not immediately obvious that it's tucked away at the end of Adventurers.

Which, admittedly, is a perfectly logical place for it to be. I was just expecting it to be its own separate file and only came across it by chance.

Is there a list of the monsters yet?

For creating your own, most PDF readers these days can print to a PDF. Just print out the character sheet pages and change the printer to your print-to-PDF function.

I think you miss the point: Most people will not be on this thread to read these instructions :)
