Speculation Thread; Power-Ups 7

Anders · 08-20-2014, 03:43 AM

Power-Ups 7 has a release date. Only the people at SJG (and mrs. Kromm) have high enough security clearance to know what it's about. So I thought we'd speculate a little.

NOTE: This is in NO way, shape, or form, to be confused with an official thread on the matter. It is pure fan speculation.

Most of the Power-Ups series have been about expansions of existing rules that had potential for expansion. In that sense, Social Engineering could probably have been a Power-Up if Kromm had written it.

So what areas needs expansion? My guess, based on experience, mathematical calculations and pure hope is Wildcard skills - which I think is a great way to reduce the skill bloat that GURPS is sometimes accused of.
