Both lines need dragons, for instance, but how is that need to be filled? Having a GURPS Fantasy Dragons and a separate GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Dragons would involve a lot of duplication.

Because that kind of blurriness a number of GURPS Fantasy campaigns are actually "hybrids": GURPS Fantasy / Dungeon Fantasy.

I'm saying this even if I personally dislike a label as "hybrid" here.

Found it here. The Heavenly Mountain Blade:

Poorly, I'm sure, but only due to the incredibly small screen. I have most of the GURPS PDFs stored on the MicroSDHC card in my Blackberry, for emergencies, but by the time you zoom in enough to be able to read the text without squinting, you can only fit a tiny chunk of it on your screen.

How do I calculate the price of shoes of silence? That is, a pair of shoes with mage-stealth that is always on.

Well, right, which is exactly the sort of thing that makes this tricky. It seems natural for a fantasy bestiary to serve each kind of campaign, since they overlap so much.

I understand. Likely the result is similar, even if the Blackberry screen is, I think, a bit smaller than the iPhone one. Now, there are several models of Blackberry . . .

Thxs for your answers. I'll check The Heavenly Mountain Blade thread.

I can't imagine an adventuring group who WOULDN'T want 20,000 square yards worth of pocket dimension.

What are the stats on that thing, anyway?

Thrown them a bag of Hench Chow every now and then and change the bedding once a week.

"Always on" isn't a legal option for the Mage-Stealth enchantment. However, it's 3 to cast and 2 to maintain, so shoes with that enchantment and a couple points of power can effectively be always on.

It's a portable door and frame. It weighs 70 pounds. Inside, there's 20,000 square yards. If the door is destroyed, the space is cut off.

...For when you just couldn't make do with 100, or even 1000 square yards of portable closet?
