GURPS Ogre Factory States

TheDS · 08-03-2007, 04:30 PM

In addition to getting Munchkin 5 yesterday, I also picked up a GURPS Ogre book. In the history, at the end, it said something like "To be continued in GURPS Ogre, the Factory States Era". I haven't been able to find it so I'm wondering if it's been published yet.

If not, it seems to me that it would be the perfect way to bring GURPS Ogre into 4th edition, not unlike was done with Traveller. I noticed in the book that many of the important vehicles were given G3 stats; when Vehicles comes out, it would become possible to stat out the vehicles with the new rules, or even to stat them out like characters/items.

Of course, this begs another question: for those of you who have and use this book, do you run this like an RPG, or are you tempted to run it more like a game of GEV? (Or, I suppose Mechwarrior would be the real comparison here.)
