Reblog: After the End 2 player-facing skill sheet (from No School Grognard)

Bygamingballistic

+Mark Langsdorf did a lot of work, and it turned out really well. 

He made a player-facing skills list based on the worked-example publication GURPS After the End 2.

It takes all the uses of attributes, skills, and advantages from the book and consolidates them by skill. So you get something like 

Traps Trap a meal (30)
Complementary skill for trapping a meal with Survival (30)
Per-based: Detect traps while scouting (32)
Per-based: Spot a security system (33)
Per-based: Spot a pit trap (36)
Per-based: Spot simple switches (36)
Disarm traps (36)
Salvage a concealed gun (36)

Except you get it for every single mention of a use or skill. 
This is a fantastic cheat-sheet, and worth emulation for other genres.

A bunch of good stuff distributed to patrons, work on a side project, and other nose-down items. The physical goods for Best Supporting Actors go into manufacturing. Best Supporting Actors had some errata released, files updated, and books and cards ordered. Books are probably arriving in 10 days or so; cards could be any time…

Rul Scararm – S&W Character in 5th Edition

Bygamingballistic

My Swords and Wizardry character in the game I play with +Erik Tenkar is Rul Scararm, a former mercenary fighter. Inspired in no small part by +Peter V. Dell’Orto converting his own character, Mirado, into the new basic rules, I decided to do the same thing. I made a few different character decisions that are available to me in 5th…

  1. I was just thinking this very thing when I say it. It's VERY useful for newbies and oldsters alike. I think I'm going to do something like this for Aeon as a handout.
