GURPS Lite: Missing Rules/Shortcomings?
Hello Everyone
I am planning a campaign with rules mainly from GURPS Lite (for now). Now I found some things, that are missing and I would like to have clarify, if that is indeed the case. I am not talking about skills/advantages/equipment, but rules that look incomplete if I don't consider the basic rules. Here are the things, that I am missing
Are the rules missing in GURPS Lite? I know that there are rules for this kind of stuff in the basic book
There is also nothing mentioned in the GURPS Lite errata: http://www.sjgames.com/errata/gurps/4e/lite.html Last edited by mogoh; 04-12-2021 at 01:50 PM. |

Re: GURPS Lite: Missing Rules/Shortcomings?
I mention some similar things in Books we want: An updated GURPS LITE, including the mentions of weapons without accompanying stats. (A commenter notes LITE's mention of ROF without rules to use it.)
Other than a few little things like that, I don't see "missing stuff" in LITE so much as I see "stuff it'd be nice to see updated or added". Overall, it's a fine intro to the game! (But - see the same link - it is interesting to note how much more stuff LITE for 3e packed into its pages!)

Thank you for you reply.
So some things are really missing. I guess it is not that bad, though mentioning in the errata would be nice. |

- Deceptive attack
IMHO it's essential to avoid attack/block, attack/parry, .. loops in some melee situations with high defense values. Moreover very important for real high attack values and also taking calculated risks generally makes thing more interesting... ;) Last edited by OldSam; 04-12-2021 at 01:57 PM. |

I will keep this in my mind and will add this to my campaign if necessary. Thanks for your suggestion. |
