What system is closest to GURPS but either free or very flexible in licensing?
I need Ubantu to be a stand alone game, and I really, really think in GURPS. So, what system could I use and suffer the least transition trauma? And it must use only d6.
(SJG isn't interested in me making a Powered by GURPS product then giving it away) Last edited by tantric; 08-13-2014 at 01:53 PM. |

Or, you might be able to find a pile of old HERO System books somewhere for liquidation prices, and include them for "free". That's abut it, unless you want personally google for and slog through lists like this one. |

In that case, neither of Jeff's solutions work. In fact, nothing works other than (A) a system with an explicit OGL or (B) coming up with an original system from scratch.

I vaguely recall some system for describing stuff in very generic terms (e.g. attributes described as very low/low/below average/average/above average/high/very high). IIRC the author put it into public domain or allowed free use or whatever the term is. It was a long time ago and that's all I can remember.
