Can one even set a phaser to "simmer?"

Perhaps . . . but it took weeks to do, so I'm guessing that those who think their time is worth more than, say, 10 cents/hour will get their money's worth out of it. And hey, it's $7.95 despite being 12-13 pages longer than the other two, so if you don't think templates are worth as much, well, you didn't pay as much for them. FFI, though, DF is intended to be template-driven, so future items will only have more templates, lenses, and advancement options. If you have time for freeform points, you don't need DF.

Probably never in the DF series. It's commited to the magic-as-spells approach, and saves powers for "innates."

No... Wait, this shouldn't be... We need the mind control lasers *working*!

;P

Icelander: my friend, I feel DF 1-2 and 3 are at last the GURPS affectuous embrace to the good & old dungeon crawl game we all know, and for me, Sean did it in a beautiful manner.

I'm waiting for further installments.

Oh, lord I've been busy lately, but since I saw this release I went ahead and bought it for a bit of recreational reading.

and nearly spit out my coffee. Hilarious.

But do half-elves kick bunnies because they don't get elven gear, or do elves not give them elves gear because they kick bunnies? The world may never know...

Errata, Corpse Eater description, pg 6

Bold added to indicate possible errata. I assume that they need to eat sapient flesh, not sapients who are still alive flesh? Otherwise corpse eater is something of a misnomer.

Hmmm Elven Rabbits, taught in the ways of Bun Fu. Experts in the way of the 'fast one', able to use 'pronoun trouble' to devasting effect on their foes then ballet leap into their rabbit holes.

At last! The Zen of Bugs -- EXPLAINED!

Well, I consider a 1982 game of In the Labyrinth to be my first experience with GURPS so I am somewhat experienced and I'm going to get a lot of value out of this product. For example my players always try to argue racial templates down to zero points. This puts that little munchkinism to rest.
I haven't had a chance to give it a good read yet but it looks like the product is exactly as described on the tin.

Damn you Turhan! Now I wanna end with "Use only as directed. See a physician if symptoms persist more than 24 hours."

Change their diet from flesh to Brains of recently deceased sapients and you have a workable 4th version of Fantasy Folk Ghouls. Without the headaches of 'they reproduce normally - but that doesn't mean that they aren't undead!"

And has the peculiarity of making most weapons inferior to unarmed attacks for SM -4 and smaller (I don't *think* the rules are supposed to apply to punches, kicks, bites, scratches if a small creature has claws, and so on), so I'm thinking of working up an alternate approach that is multiplicative (or divisive, depending on how you look at it) rather than subtractive. Probably do the same while I'm at it for armor...

I want those Lilliputian weapons to hurt at least a *little* bit if they hit bare skin!

The part that did it for me was the image of the Halfling Cosa Nostra whacking their enemies, then enjoying a plate of spaghetti. Heh. Shades of Finieous Fingers and the Halfling Thieves' Guild.

Actually, why not a Finieous Fingers campaign? I've got the collection around somewhere...
