Re: GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Career Guide
Is there a distinction between Dungeon Fantasy and GURPS Dungeon Fantasy line products?

The Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game is a line, not a series; it's based on GURPS but has some differences to speed up game play. To use it, you need only the 100% self-contained boxed set. While there are a few supporting supplements, they aren't numerous and they're all highly optional. Notably, none add professions.

Re: GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Career Guide
Although Companion 2 includes detailed notes for tuning a Holy Warrior into an Unholy Warrior on p.57.

Out of curiosity, what do you call titles like Denizens or Treasures within the GURPS Dungeon Fantasy series? A sub-series?

At Gaming Ballistic: Already decided in the affirmative. I'll let Doug Cole speak for himself. Quote:
Line (e.g., Car Wars, GURPS, Munchkin, Ogre, or TFT)Lines have line editors, top-level web pages ("title.sjgames.com" will find the game), and distinctive trade dress (logos, typefaces, colors, page designs, etc.). This is the only level with significant commercial importance, in that we hire people, register trademarks, offer event support, etc. in the name of lines. Series might have lead creators or developers, but those are roles, not job titles – they're essentially honorary. Series lack top-level web pages, though they may have landing pages in their line's web hierarchy. They share their line's trade dress with only minor variations in title typeface. Sub-Series lack almost all of the above. At most, they share a title graphic that gets stuck in front of the title of all the products (e.g., a specially styled "GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Treasures"), and perhaps a distinct section on their series landing page. Gamers often say "line" when they mean "series," and sometimes vice versa, but SJ Games staff are instructed not to do that. There is a certain legal and commercial importance to getting that right. But even staff often say "series" rather than "sub-series," as any sub-series is by definition a kind of series (and "sub-series" doesn't roll off the tongue). People are free to say what they want, of course! We're equally strict about avoiding "book" when referring to a PDF (the one you're reading or another). We prefer the more generic "item," "supplement," "volume," or "work," or simply "PDF." That's because "book" has a formal meaning in the market and the courtroom: something printed on pages and bound between covers. But we understand that fans will refer to PDFs as "books."

Re: GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Career Guide
Guilty! So, as one of the many gaming bloggers hanging around here, I appreciate the usage overview. I've made quick fixes, including to the blog post currently noted in my sig (a post that was abusing your preference regarding "book" usage about 50 times over. : )
