Re: If Lands out if Time is Borroughs-6...
I think Beyond Thirty (aka The Lost Continent) could make a pretty good game setting too, and fits well with this year's After the End theme. Though it has the far future timeline problem that tends to rule out long past apocalypse settings in Infinite Worlds.

Re: If Lands out if Time is Borroughs-6...
The various world-lines could be at different points in the timeline, too.

He'd be fun to build--probably come out in the 500-750 point range, he's basically Batman of the Jungle. Best at everything.

Re: If Lands out if Time is Borroughs-6...
Perhaps ore like Conan with even more acute senses but fewer weapon skills. There's a fairly straight line of literary descent from Tarzan to Conan anyway.

Re: If Lands out if Time is Borroughs-6...
Sure, that's a fine comparison. Tarzan strikes me as more superhuman than Conan, almost at Doc Savage values of hyper-competence, as long as we're comparing pulp heroes.

I built a Conan-clone for GURPS as an experiment. Not including French language and associated skills, he was more around 400 points, not including possible dependents!
