Neat. I've been riffing off what I roll in Kellri's Old School Encounters reference (seriously recommended, even though it includes the crud from the Rogue's Gallery; it's free, so I can't complain), which comes off interesting, though now I have a trapped aquarium somewhere in my fantasy sandbox.

I agree with Molokh here. These books seem like they would be of most general utility. Power Downs also sounds good.

As for what I would personally like? Hmmm.... More than anything I'd like to get my hands on and get some use out of more of the many many great books already out there. But yeah, a Space Opera series in keeping with DF and MH seems to me like the most obvious thing that should be made.

You know, I'm actually a little curious about how much more there is to do that hasn't already been done. 4E is huge. I trust SJGames will find meaningful directions to expand 4E into, but I have some difficulty guessing what they might be myself.

Other obvious ones are things that people have long clambered for, Vehicles being the first to come to mind. Progress on that Post Apocalyptic series will be good to see.

When re-releasing 3rd edition books in PDF I would love to see an Addendum for each of those updating the rules & stat blocks to 4th edition. I would even re-buy supplements I own (and I do own most) for this. Or make this a separate offer (Addendum only). It's a lot of work to do this myself and I would pay good money to save the time and effort (and avoid mistakes).

While this doesn't come under the heading of "PDF's or Books", it does come under the heading of something that SJGames could publish.

What I'd really like, is either specific instructions on how the GURPS CHARACTER ASSISTANT works for the spells, or an actual utility that permits someone to customize their OWN GURPS spell list.

For instance, if a GM decides he wants to remove specific spells, or change specific spell requisites for his game world, he doesn't have any real hope of customizing his spell list per GURPS CHARACTER ASSISTANT. Ditto for equpment lists as such.

I would like to see GURPS Power-Downs. I'll add that I most want to see GURPS Power-Downs: Limitations.

Along with GURPS Character Assistant V5.0, I'd like to see mouse/drop list driven template builder utility. So when the next great Pyramid article with a fun template comes along, rather than break out an editor (or wait for some one else to), I start up GURPS Template Assistant and build a template that I could then us in GURPS Character Assistant.

I'd also like to see the 3e GURPS Time Travel Adventures come out.

For floorplans and adventure sites there is also DrivethroughRPG.com. The problem is that most of what they do has squares instead of hexes but that can be worked around.
What I want to see is a vehicles that covers all TL. The Ultr-Tech vehicles would be a problem but would be worth it for the folks who run space opera and science-fiction. BTW, I'd include pack horses and mules in Vehicles.
