What GURPS needs... now

Book(s) of templates would help new GMs and PCs. You go on to further espouse how quickly templates can help in chargen and I don't disagree. I just don't find the current scatter helpful.

On the other hand a DF GM may not want to pay or have to look through Action or MH templates. Also after DF came out numerous supplements were added and that included new templates.
I would not be opposed ot either a Power Ups type book that had all the templates to date or like I suggested earlier a Warriors or other class based template book that covers multiple genres but focuses on something people can see and understand.
