It's also pretty adaptable: magic, non-humans, mecha, etc. I mean, look at Rifts.

(Granted, I assume you're talking about grounded settings, Black L.)

I love Reign of Steel; the AIs are super well designed, the entire setting feels alive. I once did a game with Infinity patrol trying to infiltrate it, epic.

Nowadays Im creating my own setting, it's a post-apocaliptic fantasy. The world has been overrun by demons and undead; the few remaining gods (only 10 of them) assembled the most skilled mortals in an unforsaken unforgiven land.

It's post apocalipse but mixed with fantasy, so among the survivors there are the most skilled archmages, master alchemists and master shamanists and more, hand picked by Thoth, the egptian God of knowledge.

They are being lead by an Ares demi-god (the surviving gods lost most of their powers) struggling with depression, feeling personally responsible for the death of his father Zeus and the other Gods, and taking upon himself the burden of leadership, being a totally different person to whom he was, and aided by an Afrodite also completely changed by the circumstances, who acts as a cornerstone to the community

I ran a Reign of Steel/War Against the Chtorr adventure when I first got into GURPS. Won't try that again.

Lol but why not?

I was hoping to get the AI Brisbane to find out one of the Parachronic Conveyors and become the BBB (big-bad-boss) for the entirety of the rest of Infinity chenanigans... Just imagine a crazy AI terminator messing with the entire multiverse... I had plans to have the Cabal team up with Infinity to deal with it, but unfortunately I never got the chance

I'm going to give a shout-out to Alexander Athanatos: while it's way more grounded then my personal preference, I really enjoy how it took biotechnology and put it in a setting where I never would have expected it.

I would also add my hat into some sort of guideline for campaigns. I realize there are some out there already, but it would be nice to have a few that are GURPS themed. Meaning that we don't have to do a lot of converting into our system.

Way back in the days of Man to Man, Myth Adventures was one of the settings I asked for in the customer survey I sent back to SJ Games. +1 from me.
