[GURPS resources] T Bone's Games Diner updates & announcements

tbone · 06-24-2019, 08:31 AM

Time again to list updates to my site. Sure hope there's something there . . .

Whew. Found this:

Small updates to GULLIVER Mini and GLAIVE Mini resources for GURPS: Minor updates to this one-page resource for building odd-sized creatures (PDF) and this one-page resource for designing low-tech melee weapons (PDF).
31 reasons why you want to pick up Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game (and fast!): The Kickstarters for both the DFRPG boxed set and the new Monsters 2 book are in the past, but you can still get your hands on these products. Click that link to see why you definitely want to do so (whether you know it or not).
A blogger's dozen (Part V): 13 ideas for RPG articles: A new installment in an old series of ideas meant to spark articles and posts for gaming blogs. (Translation: "Hey, how 'bout you write this stuff so I can read it?")
Two new talents for GURPS/DFRPG: Graceful and Life of the Party: Two short and simple talents for characters that entertain.
RPG reality check: Are falls deadly enough in GURPS?: In which we place a doctor's claim about fall mortality up against GURPS rules. Real life or our game: which is harsher when you crit fail that rooftop parkour stunt?
GURPS has three kinds of rolls (and they're not success, reaction, and damage): In which I muse on how RPGs sure put dice to use for a lot of things. (Shocker, I know.)
Rules Nugget (GURPS/DFRPG): Better Aim: A tiny tweak to the Aim maneuver that just makes the workings a little tidier, nothing more.
PDF resource for GURPS takes shape: Robert E. Howard’s “Hyborian Age”: A free PDF download from site contributor uE5Xg9p2, outlining the places, peoples, and dangers of the original Conan source material, with careful attention to how things map to GURPS.

That last item in particular is the sort of fan-made support that we all like to see for GURPS! It's a work in progress, but if you've an interest in Conan or fiction-to-game conversions in general, give it a read and offer the author a suggestion or critique or what have you.

That is all. 'Til next time, thanks as always for the visits and comments!
