Does take a lot of work. Those comments on information denseness are quite right. It shines with commitment to learning the system. If that commitment is not there for you or your players, stay with the basic system, and may be incorporate a detail or two if it seems appropriate.

I'll echo this.

Basically, the book's awesome. In my house, it's the most used GURPS book after the Basic Set. If you feel like you could enjoy more combat rules, buy it.
