As you say, a milestone in the RPG history.

Yes, all the goodness that once was AD&D and Combat and Tactics is now GURPS and Martial Arts. And that does show how far RGPs have come.

Excellent job Steve Jackson Games.

After reading this I'm tempted to go out and buy a second copy.

Martial Arts is one of the things I really love about GURPS.

GURPS Martial Arts is an incredibly good book. It is one of those rare game books that are solid gold from cover to cover.

I know more than one person who only bought GURPS Basic and Campaigns because of that book.

(Except for that weird error on p. 107: ". . . have one or more movement point -5 left, and attempt an Acrobatics roll." Where did that freakish "-5" come from? It wasn't in the final draft!)

I just coughed up 40 bucks for my own copy. This book is so totally going to be MINE in the next few hours/days.
