Previous thread: >>97111514GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: How often do you use an official GURPS setting? Which are your favorites?
I suppose this might be a topic better suited as it's own thread. But I'll ask here since I'd probably run it in GURPS:What's the best way to run an FE style game in a TTRPG? Not quite literally in a turn based tactics kind of way, but I meant more making the players feel like they're traveling with a large warband on whatever grand quest they're on. Awakening has like 42 characters, excluding Robin. 40+ unique NPCs hanging around the party feels pretty unwieldy when also accounting for people outside of the warband.Any advice on handling it?
>>97268345I can see three possibilities. Either just narratively say they're with you party, with a random character you choose talking to the PCs one and a while so they actually "feel" there. Actually put all the characters in a battle which is a pretty big hassle keeping track so i wouldn't do this. There's GURPS Mass Combat which makes it easy to simulate all these people, but i haven't used it so i cannot tell you how good it is.
>>97268345Two Can Die for the Price of One (Dungeon Fantasy 15 p. 33) provides guidance on letting a single player control multiple PCs simultaneously.The Arithmetic of Rank (Social Engineering p. 14) provides guidance on how many officers of different Rank are needed in a warband.Social Engineering: Pulling Rank and Dungeon Fantasy 17 provide guidance on the mechanics of a warband itself.
>>97268420>guidance on how many officers of different Rank are needed in a warbandAlso, you could have each PC be an officer in command of a few NPC grunts.
>>97268400The narrative part is what I'm actually most concerned about. I can easily limit the amount of NPCs in a battle by letting the players lead some section of the charge so to speak, or have the rest of the warband be some distraction force/other prong of the assault. But since each member of the FE warband is supposed to be a unique character that can permanently die, just treating them like a grunt feels like it's off the table if I want to keep the right vibes.

i like systems with crafting
>>97261958Even with all the KDM copy cats somehow none of them have close to realizing that what I like is the monster hunter feel of advancing up a tech tree and unlocking and crafting new gear, its always the first thing they optimize away. Honestly it's rough that ice been working on my own kdm clone dungeon crawler.
>>97262635Yeah when I playtested my own shitty game I realized the whole tech tree satisfaction was missing.Kind of ironic because it's about mecha.

This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.This is different than the regular osrg as due to rampant trolling from a handful of bad actors, discussion is impossible.PREVIOUS THREAD>>97206318
>>97267593The funny thing about rule books is that the more you collect, the less you need them.Once you know the rules well enough, you really don't need thousands of potentially broken or disjointed player options; all you need is the basic classes and some time communicating with your players over what they want and how the basic classes should be modified.You don't need specific rules or specific examples of equipment, especially when so much shares identical mechanics. The books are still nice to flick through to pick up ideas, but eventually all GMs should reach a point where they can see just how "human" the designers were and how easily their ideas could be improved upon to better fit what the GM's group needs.
>>97267989Sure but it would be nice to be able to see what those options are to begin with.Like cantrips and firearms, a lot of people still dont know those were a thing before 3rd edition.
>>97268011Firearms go all the way back to OD&D. Hell, laser guns and power armor do too.

>>97267616We probably have a bunch of noncombat stuff we can do in that fifteen hours. Head back to town, follow up on some leads, do some research.
>>97267889But then why are they unable to discover them for an uninterrupted hour? An hour's a long fucking time.
>>97268095Exactly. An hour of delay is enough for the enemy to mobilize and either prepare to fight the PCs defensively or take the fight back to the PCs in a coordinated group. If that is an overriding concern, the PCs either have to do a kick-down-the-door SWAT raid style clearing of all the encounters in one go, or they pull back far away from the encounters after running low on resources so that they can't be pursued easily, at which point they have wasted so much time that there isn't much harm in doing a full long rest. A Short Rest is the worst of both worlds, where they cede the element of surprise and initiative, and get rather meager benefit from doing so.

With horses extinct or lycanthrope monstrosities, the Southern Kingdoms have started to import animals from elsewhere. Alpacas and llamas are particularly sough after as beasts of burden after Lord Captain Hernandez conquered some mountain empire. The human slaves kicked the bucket pretty fast, new animals seem to be resistive to lycanthropy. The Lich King might have fucked up on his spell a little bit there.
