GURPS Day Summary Through Sept 29, 2016
Thursday is GURPSDay. We’re entering the last day of the Dungeon Fantasy Kickstarter. It fully funded during Day 16, about four days ago, and is still going strong. It looks to be pushing to around $155,000 plus another $30K from W23 sales, which gives us the 180,000 stretch goal of a month of Pyramid (one issue) for all backers who pledge $50 or more.
Below you can find the blog activity for the last 10-25 posts for every blog that has posted. This is a lot of posts – the GURPS blogging community has picked up rather a lot of steam recently, a phenomenon I hope that GURPSDay has helped with to a small degree.
I can only offer this exhortation: back the Kickstarter. Blog more. Create more. Refine your writing technique and participate in the community-driven submission process that is writing for SJG. They’re a tough crowd, and their standards are high. But if you can write for them, you can probably write for anyone.
Even yourself.
As always, if you’re interested in having your blog consolidated here, navigate over to The Instructions Page and drop me a line.

- After the End: Week 18 (8/16/16) – The team learns (the hard way!) that the hidden underground corridor is protected by nanoburn-armed drones. But quick thinking, fast reflexes, and a bit of technical know-how keep them alive — for now.

Gaming Ballistic (Douglas Cole)
- Special GURPSDay for DF Kickstarter (9/28/16)
- Aeon Campaign S3E10 – Operation Viking (planning) (9/27/16) – Aeon Campaign S3E10 – We very, very quickly try and raise a perfectly non-homicidal robot love-child of two conflicting opposing powers, with moderate success, we think. We’re so proud. We then turn our minds to preventing Blue Skies from obtaining the last information they need to mass-produce metahumans, which is located at Century Base, east of Thule, Greenland. Plans are being formulated.

- Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set: The Word of Kromm (9/07/16) – With all the excitement about he DF Boxed Set, and even with my interview, there’s a lot of information Sean Punch has put out there in the DF threat of the SJG Forums. I’ve collected it here into one post.
- Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set: Interview with Line Editor Sean Punch (9/07/16) – I had the opportunity to sit down once again with GURPS Line Editor Sean Punch for a 90-minute interview concerning the GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set.
- Aeon Campaign S3E8 – Take Me Out to the Ballgame (9/06/16) – Aeon S3E8 – We take on a giant mob in Yankee Stadium. Lots of mooks, a giant minigun, and a guy with six attacks who can deliver a -8 deceptive attack. It’s a pretty robust battle and we blunder through thanks to huge karma spends. Nonetheless, Zephyr almost bites it. We win, but it’s messy.
- DF Kickstarter Funding Goals and Costs (9/03/16) – Is $100K too much for a KS goal for the DF boxed set? No. Definitely not, and I give estimates of why I think it’s either bang-on or even a little low. Applies to any self-publishing venture.

- Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set – Q&A with Phil Reed (8/31/16) – Steve Jackson Games’ CEO Phil Reed answers a few of my questions about the recently-announced GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set!
- Dungeon Fantasy Boxed Set announced! (8/31/16) – Steve Jackson Games makes a big announcement – a Kickstarter for a five-volume boxed Dungeon Fantasy set with lots of goodies in the box. Ready-to-play, with consolidated and edited content that will invite beginners and please grognards. Also – I’ve got interviews scheduled with Phil Reed and Sean Punch on this topic over the next two weeks. Watch this space!
- Aeon Campaign S3E7 – Ante-mortem (8/30/16) – In S3E7 of the Aeon campaign, we attend the civilian funeral of a fallen hero off-screen. We then try and figure out how to take the fight back to Blue Skies, and decide to really play the anti-Wheaton card. We get them evicted from their own main headquarters. Upon doing that, we realize that we’ve been penetrated at a high level by a group similar to Anonymous called Sentry. That is interrupted in true pulp fashion by a biker gang with machineguns. They are dealt with efficiently, but a bigger threat is revealed.
- GURPS Day Summary Aug 19 – Aug 25, 2016 (8/25/16)
- Aeon Campaign S3E6 – Interrogation (8/23/16) – In S3E6 of the Aeon campaign, we interrogate and debrief some of the people we extracted from the Blue Skies base.

We start to unravel the ‘what’ but not the ‘why’ and need to make plans for the future.

- Locked blades in GURPS (8/16/16) – A post by Daniel Dover at Mailanka’s Musings has me thinking about lightsabers. S[ecifically, how to represent all that blade-binding you see in the movies.
- Aeon Campaign S3E5 – The wrong damn rec room (8/16/16) – In S2E5 of the Aeon campaign, we start out with a good plan. We attack the base. The plan goes pear-shaped. And there’s ED209 with very effective machine guns. And a crystal skull. Man down, Ethan. Man down.
- GURPS Day Summary Aug 5 – Aug 11, 2016 (8/11/16)
- Market Research: One Book or Multiple for RPGs? (8/10/16) – One book or several for a Roleplaying Game? Some really low-level market research[/URL] (I took a poll) and how Print-on-Demand might allow everyone to have cake and devour it properly. Turns out GURPS Fourth Edition’s setup seems popular.

- Ibram Garro – My new GURPS character (9/19/16)
Well, isn't this quite to content buffet to peruse through!
Also can't believe that I went through the effort of staying up late last night to finish this weeks post before I went o bed… and I somehow forgot to adds a GURPS tag! D'oh! It's fixed now so hopefully it'll show up during your next update.
Yep, I forgot to publish something last night completely – only just now realized. Ah well, means it will be fresh and not lost in the pile next week!
There's weirdness with the formatting for my posts, at least on my device. Only the most recent is center justified and there is a big gap between it and the next one.
Happens on my desktop too. I'll look into it later tonight
