Gaming Ballistic
I started the blog the day after Christmas in 2012, and since then, I have perhaps made 150 posts. About 80-85 of them are GURPS-related in some way. Another 30 or so have to do with Pathfinder. The rest is a bit of a hodge-podge. The top 10 most read articles to date have been:
Finally, every month, Peter Dell'Orto, Jason Packer, and occasionally Mark Langsdorf and Christian Blouin (and coming this month, Christopher Rice) collaborate on a feature that we call Melee Academy, a bit of "combat how-to" for GURPS. You can find the Melee Academy collection here. Editing for my official format: Gaming Ballistic (by DouglasCole): The blog has been running since December of 2012, and has about 50-60% GURPS content, a lot of it serious crunch. Common themes are wounding, damage, and fight pacing. I also host a monthly 'how to fight in GURPS' article collection called Melee Academy. I will occasionally write about Pathfinder (I'm doing a Core Rulebook read-through for novices like myself), as well as general inspiration from entertainment. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
Setting aside whether LiveJournal is "really" a blog site . . . I consider my LJ to be a blog. There are two main channels relevant to GURPS:
|
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
The GURPS Repository, a wiki dedicated to collecting all sorts of GURPS stuff. It is especially noteworthy for its Monster collection (288 monsters so far) and its D&D Conversion.
Probably best-known in this forum thanks to the D&D Conversion thread. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
No School Grognard
I started this blog in the spring of 2013 and update it several times a month, trying for at least a weekly update. It covers Actual Play reports of games I'm involved in, painting tips and experiences for Reaper Bones figures, house rules and gameplay suggestions for GURPS Dungeon Fantasy, and a bunch of miscellania on role-playing games. About 2/3rds the content is GURPS Dungeon Fantasy related, I'd guess. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
My blog is almost entirely GURPS Dungeon Fantasy focused:
Dungeon Fantastic I started it back in 2011. There are occasional off-topic forays into post-apocalypse, D&D, and gaming art. Lots of minis stuff, too, but it's on topic for my own games. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
The Beggar's Crown is a blog I recently started. It will mostly be a journal of my experience GMing a GURPS Fantasy campaign for the first time. The majority of posts will be session reports, with occasional rules questions (and answers) that arise during play, or design issues encountered while creating the campaign world.
This is my first blog ever, so don't expect to find anything too polished and shiney. While I'm happy to share my GURPS experiences with others, I'm also doing this for my own benefit. I find that reviewing a session and writing it all down helps me focus on what needs improving. If during the process I accidentally write something interesting, all the better! Tim |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
I don't have a blog, but I tend to use my personal group's wiki as a bit of a blog platform.
ottgaming It's heavily Dungeon Fantasy centered, but there's material from other systems and other group members stuff too. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
Are we counting Obsidian Portal campaign logs as "GURPS blogs" for purposes of this thread? If so, I have a "clog" for my Transhuman Space game, "In the Shadows of Venus." You can find it here

Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
Guys,
Websites devote to campaigns, Play-By-Web pages, and so on DEFINITELY count. Post 'em if you got 'em. |

We could even have some categories, though that could be some discussion as to what ("General Gaming," "GURPS-focused," "Campaign Blog (SYSTEM)" for examples). Or just ask for a blog URL and a ten-word-or-less descriptor, and put all the blogs in one lead post (including your own, of course!) That way we really do have a one-stop shop. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
It's not entirely GURPS-specific, but I do spent a good deal of my time on GURPS-related stuff there: http://rpgsnob.blogspot.com/
Right now my posting rate is sketchy (move across country at the end of August has us on regular packing duty) but will resume shortly. Hoping to have something for Melee Thursday, but not sure I'll make it. |
Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds

Serously: this Thursday's topic is "Ranged Combat." Which is, as you might suspect, odd for a "Melee Academy." But hey, sometimes you have to provide smackdown from a distance. The Melee Academy series is something that cropped up and we usually post links on various Google Communities. But of course, after that, I collect all the links and put them on the page above. It's good reading. |

My RPG page is almost-exclusively GURPS, including the much-beloved combat examples, a variety of downloadable PDFs, and write-ups of some of my past campaigns and convention one-shots.
My Game Geekery Blog is "Musings on GURPS, the RPG hobby, and assorted Geekery." |

Re: GURPS Blogs, Wikis, and Feeds
My and Cernig's GURPS cyberpunk campaign Edgerunners is up on Obsidian Portal. It includes a lot of stuff, from a number of house rules to AI templates to the very detailed, almost transcript-like (OK, created from actual transcripts) campaign adventure logs.
Edgerunners won Campaign of the Month on OP back in October of last year, so apparently we're doing something right. |

Wear a Badge, Carry a Gun (site by Agemegos, content by Icelander): Descriptions and stat lines for more than 100 variant Ultra-Tech firearms (mostly Gauss guns in pistol, SMG, rifle, shotgun, and support-weapon form factors, various calibres etc.), plus special ammunition, variant sonic stunners, and a couple of heavy weapons.

I maintain one website and provide occasional leaks on another:

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
Okay. I updated the first post. I used what I had already been posted. If you want to clean up the descriptions for your sites a bit - edit your original post with the new text and I'll slide it into place as soon as I see it.

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
Thanks for the efforts, Ghostdancer! Here's my submission:
T Bone's Games Diner (by T Bone): A long-running RPG blog focused on GURPS hacking and homebrew game design. Some items of broad interest: The GURPS Diner, experimental hacks, reader-contributed content, and Games Diner goodies on e23. Plus lots more; explore via search or copious topic tags. To keep up with new additions (which are... lovingly slow-cooked, let's say), watch this forum thread, the RSS feed, or this Twitter feed. Or just drop by and say HI once in a while. |
Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
If one of the mods could insert another couple of posts for me to expand on that would be great. :-)
I'll just leave this here for now. If you could please format your posts in the following manner, I'd be grateful:

Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
I've had a website for a while at https://sites.google.com/site/anthonysgurps/, though it tends to be perpetually incomplete; the home page lists the pages I consider reasonably complete. Includes my rules for light levels.

At the moment, my textpattern web site is a combo of Traveller, GURPS Traveller, and some ideas I'm working on for Empires in Traveller.
My Sectors, map on the site, is on the opposite side of the Milky way Galaxy from the rest of the GURPS Traveller/Traveller sectors and empires. That way it is all brand new, and hopefully someone else hasn't had that '180 degree around the corner' idea. Here is the info: JimMarn's Traveller site world, sector, and sub-sector maps; Gazelle close escort deck plan. Creating my own empires based on human ancient civilizations. |

Those that have visited my site before should note that these URLs are new. Islands of War recently moved and the new site is much more up to date, including both new material and updates to old material. I also updated the links in my signature, but it looks exactly the same. |
GURPS Stuff from the Attic
While I publish for classic editions of D&D most of my gaming is done with GURPS. I have released a bunch of useful GURPS files and on my Bat in the Attic blog. Finally collected them onto a page for easy access.

I'm trying to get one of my ideas up at GURPS Fall. So far I am just getting the hang of the wiki as well as trying to get my notes in an order that will make sense to people besides myself.
It's a post apocalyptic setting. It's sort of a middle ground between realistic and gonz |

Not sure why I haven't posted my blog here yet, so here it is.
Dark Paths and Wandered Roads (by Jason Woollard) Dark Paths and Wandered Roads is a GURPS campaigns blogspot. It tracks the progress of the 4 different campaigns I GM: 1) Dark Paths of Riddleport - Following the adventures of a crew of heroes and rogues, from the streets of the pirate city of Riddleport to the ancient Elven forests of Mireani. This is a Pathfinder Adventure Path to GURPS conversion. We play (supposedly) every other week online using Roll20 and supplement with play by post style between sessions.99.9% of all the posts are campaign session play reports, so this one would definitely be placed under the Campaign Specific section. Thank you for compiling all of this! |

Paradise City is a "cyberpunk" setting for GURPS 4th ed. This is "game" cyberpunk, firmly in the tradition of GURPS Cyberpunk, Cyberpunk 2020 and Shadowrun.
The setting includes custom weapon and cyberware tables that could be used in any GURPS game. |

The GURPS Magical Styles Fan Netbook is a collection of magical styles written by fans in accordance with the rules in GURPS Magical Styles.
While I started the netbook, it belongs to the community and you can go ahead and add your homebrewed styles without asking permission first. Thirty-three magical styles so far and counting! |
Re: GURPS Websites: Blogs, Wikis, Feeds . . .
Lineage
and The Gift are two distinct campaign settings in which the PCs play mages living secretly in the modern world. Both focus heavy on wizard politics and factionalism, though wizard PCs might get up to any sort of adventures. In The Gift the power blocs in mage society have formed around different approaches to magic, with the Hermetic Council, the nature worshiping Circle, and the technophile Cooperative jostling for power while the independent orders refuse to bow to anyone. 31 orders of mage are described, 9 council, 5 Circle, 5 Cooperative, and and 12 Independent. In Lineage power is concentrated in the great wizard families, ruling over humanity as magical aristocracy since ancient times and plotting against each other for control. Arrayed against them are the wizard orders of the Rebellion, fighting to protect humanity from the great mage houses and the forces of Hell. 27 orders of mage are described, 16 great houses and 11 orders of the Rebellion. |
