Hopefully this is the correct thread to ask this. Apologies if it isn't. I'm curious if there is any chance that the old 2nd edition GURPS basic box set will ever be added to the W23 store front in PDF or even PoD at some point.

Over all I prefer the streamlined simplicity of that version with the occasional add on of other books/rules as needed. Problem is the old books get worn, damaged etc. Tracking replacements down on eBay has become much more costly in recent years.

I'm sure some think it's silly to desire older versions of game rules, but as the OSR movement has shown, there is a market out there for it. Anyhow, I thought I'd ask. 😀
