GURPS Day Summary July 22 - July 28, 2016

Thursday is GURPSDay, and below you can find the blog activity from the last seven days.

Over the last week, as of 900pmCST today, there have been 33 GURPS-Related posts from our list of 56 blogs that have popped up on the radar screen. Another pretty light week, but then, it’s summertime.

Not every blog posts about GURPS every week, but some are ridiculously prolific! The list is randomized, so different bloggers will be highlighted at the top of the post each week.

As always, if you’re interested in having your blog consolidated here, navigate over to The Instructions Page and drop me a line.

Aeon Campaign S3E3 – Mission Impossible, Mission Trivial (7/26/16) – In S3E3 of the Aeon Campaign, we take the fight to the enemy in a huge way, and pull off three simultaneous ops to cripple the bad guys’ ability to make a critical material – the Kyberian-energy-storing orichalcum. The material my super-sword was made of, and many other things. We are ghosts, and pull it off with panache.
