GURPS Day Summary Mar 31– Apr 6, 2017

Welcome to the second year of GURPSDay, and here’s the final pull for you guys.

We’re currently drawing content from 82 blogs. Only 18 more to go until we’re pulling from 100! But we’ll need your help.

How? Two action items: post more, recruit more. It’s really that simple. More posters is more posts, and more interest in GURPS.

Below you can find the blog activity for the last week. There’s a whole lotta awesome GURPS going on. Read all 47 posts as of 7:30am CST.

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. Take special note of the RSS Settings Fix if you’re on WordPress.

GURPSDay on WordPress – a quick RSS note (4/06/17) – There’s a trick to getting more posts to show up on your WordPress feed, as well as ensuring your ‘precis’ information gets picked up. I only just noticed this, but there’s a quick fix.
GURPS Day Summary Mar 31– Apr 6, 2017 (4/06/17)
Spell Targeting – Margin of Error (5e, GURPS, others) (4/05/17) – If your game bogs down as the players (or the GM!) decide exactly…exactly…where to drop that 30′ radius spell, toss in a bit of random to where it goes off. Keeps magic mysterious, cuts down on metagame time loss, but introduces issues of its own.
The TL9 Pistol – Design Directions (GURPS) (4/04/17) – Following up on the TL9 pistol article prior in the week, what would real advancements in sidearms look like? Start with the ammo, then move to the platform itself. Let’s find out.
Sunday is GunDay: GURPS Ultra-Tech Pistols (4/03/17) – Sunday is GunDay, and while this one’s a bit late, it’ll hold the fort for a while. I look at the pistols from Ultra-Tech and tweak the design and specs for both mission focus and a bit of tweaking for plausibility in some cases.
