GURPSDay Summary Mar 2, 2018 – Mar 8, 2018

Blergh. Habby GURPthDay, but blerg. Sick. Tired. Full day of work. But at least we’ll have GURPS.

Welcome to GURPSDay 2018, and the fourth year – GURPSDay started in February 2013, only a year after I started Gaming Ballistic.

We’re currently drawing content from 98 blogs. We are so very, very close to having 100 GURPS blogs.

We still need your help. And if you just started a GURPS blog – and I know that some of you have – email me and get on the list! With the advent of the Dungeon Fantasy RPG, Powered by GURPS, there’s even more reason to write.

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 the posts.

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.

Game Prep: Farming Out Recurring Locations (3/07/18) – Musing out loud about issuing “homework” to players to come up with two recurring Locations in the gameworld similiar to how Fate RPG does Faces & Places.

Game Prep: Monsaanti-Neogene Assault Team Member (3/05/18) – Stating out some generic 150-point bad guy soldiers. Stats definitely abused. References to Space and Ultra-Tech.
Game Prep: Traveller, 4.08 (3/05/18) – Making plans for the 8th session of our ongoing game. Some stats abused and solid references made to Action and Ultratech along with lots of pretty pictures. As normal, this is mostly stream of consciousness that will eventually become the session notes proper.
