GURPS 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.

TQ: what's your least favorite disadvantage for a player to take?

>Ye olde zerkers had shields and defended themselves
Classical berserkers were probably just dudes who psyched themselves up enough to do shit the average person thought was crazy, which helped intimidate enemies. It's probably not the same as GURPS Berserk, which is a lot more like a tard spergout.

Can you be a bit more specific then?
Do you want to collect everything DM related or just the clasic cards? (which have a lot of reprints, rarities and diferent artworks), or specific archetypes? (all the dark magician related cards for example)

Classist but not sneering. He's a LG but born and raised as a noble so tries his best to be the very model of chivalry.

The first in valour, as the first in place;

Behold our deeds transcending our commands,

>making contracts, bestowing immortality,
Mine had deals too, more verbal aggreements than contracts I guess, and was supposed to be ageless but not unkillable, so half immortality? A quarter since he can't give it away?

Also it substitutes shadows with ice and cold I guess.
It's a lot weaker than the shit I'm reading on the wiki but it is conceptually very similar.
I could double down on it, and give a lot more importance to the run away prince part of his bcakstory, as I assume the world government isn't going to leave a mini demon running around out of control, no matter how limited compared the original. It would tie in with his obsession with freedom he already had.
Or I could just go for the other idea I was working on that was kinda dumb, then became more serious, and now it's even more dumb. And was, strangely enough, going the exact opposite direction. Please tell me now if there is some kind of god already in OP, other than whatever Nika is.

>>97833428
>Husk (I assume) should be fine lol.
Nope, the other one. The ice demon. Didn't we have a third one? I may be remembering wrong.

This may not be such a bad idea, I do remember a list of those somewhere, I think there was a cyoa about it.

Hello?

>>97829270
The same thing that every American thinks when they say "I could care less" when they try and express that they couldn't care less about something. Which is that they don't think anything about the individual words they are saying, they're using what is an idiom to them because they've heard other people do the same thing a billion times, even though English is their first language and they could easily recognize the mistake if they thought about it for a moment. You can take this to mean niggas is retarded if you want, but really people just don't think very hard about the language they use.

A few years ago, I've homebrewed a TTRPG Hero system, from 0. Obviously with a few bases (It was mostly based on GURPS or the 1d100 system wise). For an arts project that I graduated with and even got an interview for it.

The world was about a post-apocalyptic metallic, chromium world. All cities became underground after the bombs, hyper advanced technology and history was lost to the nuclear disaster.
But nowadays they're sort of recovering technologies on the surface and building surface cities of shiny and smooth metal.

The huge point of the setting was that some people had radioactive or mutant powers appeared in different circumstances and some of them either become heroes or villains. But knowing that the world is still unknown and super dangerous.

The whole system was point based that they would have some starter powers or mutations, but the more exposed they become to radiation, they will have either good or bad traits or powers but also an ''ego'' or moral compass.

Excuse me if it sounds strange, I'm ESL, and it's been years since I've talked about this old project. Created in a fit of passion and 'tism

I don't know. I think >>97830701 might have the right of it and it's that I never paid enough attention to the individual words or really thought about what I was saying.

I do know why I said
>Jesus fuck, I maybe actually be retarded.
Instead of
>Jesus fuck, I MIGHT actually be retarded.

I was drunk.

but what did you think you were communicating? ignoring the spelling entirely, what did you think the phrase means?

Long time MtG player (17 years?) and with what's happening to the game rn, i don't really have much interest in any of the new sets.

Sorcery looks like it could maybe scratch that itch. The art is fantastic and reminds me of legacy MtG art. Anybody here play?

I watched a few overview vids, but I'm curious how the actual gameplay goes.

For someone who plays mostly EDH, are there any similarities?

Is it usually a 2 player match?
How long are the matches usually?

Is it as much of a money pit as MtG?

Convinced a few of my MtG friends to give it a shot based off of the art alone. Just need an idea of what I'm up against in terms of learning curve.

Handlers Guide for the big overview, Conspiracy for the Conspiracy Era, Fall of Delta Green for the sixties era. There is also the original DG book, Countdown, Eyes Only and Targets of Opportunity.

There are also the short story collections and novels. Basically any book is going to have some lore. The Handler's Guide had the most, but it's pretty dry.

>>97831765
There's quite a few short story collections, but:

"Strange Authorities" has the novella "The Rules of Engagement". This is peak Delta Green fiction.

After that, read "Through A Glass, Darkly" to see how Delta Green transitions from The Conspiracy to The Program.

There is also "Denied to the Enemy" for WW2-era DG, but it's honestly not a very good book.
