GURPS Shooting - TL6-8 Gunfighting blog

MrFix · 08-04-2019, 08:32 AM

Hello there,

Name's MrFix and I've been playing GURPS on and off for the past few years, mostly interacting with the Discord community, but recently I've started writing articles on GURPS related topics, so I'd like them to reach a wider audience and get some useful feedback on the matter.

You can find my blog here: GURPS: Shooting things for fun and profit

I currently have these blogposts available:

GURPS Tactical Swarms - An attempt to bring larger scale to tactical second-by-second combat by abstracting squads into one entity, inspired by GURPS Zombies zombie mobs and Action complementary skills.
Center-Axis-Relock Fighting Style for GURPS. - An attempt to bring CAR style of shooting, popular in movies and video games, into GURPS.
TL8 headache: Assault Vest - An attempt to rationalize and offer practical solutions to the "problem" of DR 35 torso armor being available at TL8. Both useful for GMs and Players.
GURPS Spraying Fire Cheat Sheet - A somewhat quick to use cheat sheet of figuring out spraying fire and if targets are located within 30 degree cone.
GURPS Stealth and Camouflage Guide Part 1 - An exploration/guide of Stealth and Camouflage skill as part of TL6-8 tactical operations. This part goes over the skills and equipment related to them.
GURPS Stealth and Camouflage Guide Part 2 - An exploration/guide of Stealth and Camouflage skill as part of TL6-8 tactical operations. This part goes over the tactics, strategies and weaponry for stealth ops.
Gun Trivia - Curious things and tidbits that I imagined in my spare time.
GURPS Homebrew: Tactical Carbine - Fix for the issue of Tactical Carbines etc having same bulk as assault rifles, making them pretty much a worse choice within GURPS.
GURPS Firearm: Keltec KSG and KSG25 - My take on the famous shotguns.
GURPS Firearm: Saiga 410K-01 and -04 - Russian magazine-fed .410G Shotguns for civilians, security and zombie survivalists.
GURPS Firearm: Taurus Judge .410G 3" - My take on the famous pistol-shotgun.
GURPS Basic Set Vehicular Combat cheatsheet - Quick distillation of Basic Set Vehicular Combat rules.
GURPS Homebrew: Binary Trigger Pack - Gunsmithing option to give your gun a semblence of automatic fire while remaining LC3.
GURPS Firearm: ALFA .357 Magnum, UK-Legal Muzzleloading Caplock Revolver - Want your adventure to take place in TL8 UK, but gun laws make you sad? This firearm will keep you safe.
GURPS Demolitions: Custom Shrapnel - Based on a Krommpost, a system of adding shrapnel to your custom explosives.
GURPS Armor: Ballistic Face Mask - Infamous TL8 ballistic mask to prevent loss of appearance levels during high intensity CQB.
GURPS Firearm Customization Draft 1 - System for deep and granular firearm customization.
GURPS Stealth & Camouflage Guide Update: Half-Ghillie, Face Masks, Black Camouflage, Bright Colors - Don't be bogged down by house rules. I revisit some aspects of my previous guides, where house rules were suggested, and replace them with RAW, rules legal alternatives. This one covers equipment.

I write when an inspiration strikes me, or when I face a serious problem that I resolve, and thus want to share my solution. I welcome all feedback, and requests as long as they fit the thematic of the blog - TL6-8 Gunfighters and related topics.

Thanks, I'll consider it. Feeling a bit uneasy about my publication speed to be featured in every thursday thing, although if inactive blogs aren't purged, I will add it there.

They aren't. Some are absent for months at a time, but they only appear in the listing if they have posted.

MrFix · 08-04-2019, 11:34 AM

Alright, thanks for the heads up, I've sent my submission so hopefully it will be added.

Uploaded a cheat sheet I've made ages ago for when I held belief that spraying fire was god's gift to gunmen. Still useful though.

Don't mind if I grab that cheat sheet. :)

Also, damage for semi-ablative is 10 dmg per 1 DR
