GURPS Horror: The Madness Dossier is released!

GURPS Horror: Madness Dossier is out!

As you’ve seen in this space before, I’m a big fan of +Kenneth Hite‘s work, and this setting for GURPS Horror is no exception. I have to review why I was listed as a reviewer – I got a comp copy – but I got a preview of this one, liked it, and would enjoy running a campaign in the setting, I think. It’s more cerebral than my “find the Aliens and shoot ’em in the face” current campaign, while still including the “shoot ’em in the face” part.

That’s a nice balance. I can’t wait to read this final version, and I’ll post a review eventually.
