Dragon Heresy: 13 hours and counting
We are in the last half day of the final push of the dragon heresy kick starter. We are 3,000 from the big offset print run goal, where all books get upgraded to the best quality.
This is the fourth and last book in the all-too-brief GURPS Action series. I reviewed Heroes, Exploits, and Furious Fists in separate posts. Today I cover GURPS Action 4: Specialists. This 36-page book is something a bit different for GURPS, and that something is really cool. It’s not quite “Pointless GURPS,” which I covered when…
