GURPS Campaigns: Past, Present, and Wishful Thinking
I was thinking for a moment about campaigns I have run in GURPS.

Three busy weeks since my last report. All packages for Sedra have gone out. Playtest of extant Mission X rules continues. I launched an OSE conversion of the Sedra sourcebook and companion adventures yesterday. Isle of Sedra has effectively reached 100% shipment, and mostly those packages have arrived. Time to get the TFT books up…
As always, I try and post an update summarizing current progress on the Hall of Judgment Kickstarter and what’s to come each Monday. Campaign Progress I can’t put it any other way but to say that the Hall of Judgment campaign has exceeded my expectations and is rapidly closing in on my hopes as well….
A hard week, but a pretty good one. Till Death Shipping has all packages, including international ones, out the door. More on that below. Shields Up has started second-round edits and playtester review. No fight-tests yet. Serpents of Legend saw progress and a few fight-tests. I feel the Bestiary-type book is starting to come together…
James Introcaso asked a simple question. What is the kindest thing a player can do for a GM? #DnD #RPG The answers are well worth reading. A few things spring to mind here, many of which are doubtless repeated in the thread. Show up on time If you’re not going to show or are going…
Thursday is GURPS-Day, and release day! We get more goodness today with Loadouts: Low-Tech Armor. I had a hand in this one, as you cans see – I was listed as Lead Playtester. Interestingly enough, this title, so to speak, came last. I was approached by +Steven Marsh a while back to see if I could potentially…

I'm really interested in your notes on porting the Deed of Paksenarrion religious background. Did it include the later books or just the original trilogy? I personally would LOVE to have a companion book on the setting, or even a roleplaying sourcebook for it (that is, a setting companion book+roleplaying stats)
(FYI, there is a prequel duology detailing Gird's life, and a sequel trilogy, set just after the events in the original trilogy. I favor the sequel trilogy, but the prequel duology is quite decent. Both add a lot of information on magic in the setting, specially on the old magery.)
Huh. Posted a reply and Google ate it.
Short version: I'm sure I don't have those notes anymore. I mainly stole Gird, the Marshals and the organization structure. The other gods and knightly orders were really good too, though.
I've read all the Paks stories (eight of 'em?) and they were good but uneven.
Yeah, 8 of them. You're right that the quality is uneven, but the world is really compelling.
Too bad you lost your notes… Then again, for me, the neat thing was not just the girdish followers, but how the different orders and "saints" (because Falk, Gird, etc are more like saints than gods) interplay.
Also, on google eating the post, are you sure you filled the abominable captchas properly? I've lost a few posts because it seems that I had a character wrong or something, didn't realize it, and simply closed the tab…
If we could reasonably telecommute you in, you'd be welcome in my game. I just can't figure out how we'd do it.
Spare laptop, wide-angle webcam, and Google Hangouts or Skype, baby!
I had forgotten the Black Ops game. All I remember now was an alien crash site, where we had to run underground to fight some aliens. Thanks. Any chance of my old character sheet lying around?
