Thursday is GURPSDay! June 28 to July 19, 2019
Thursday is GURPSDay, and well, things got a bit nuts, so it’s a day late again. Good thing I’m going back three weeks at a time! Alas, as you can see, no blogging this week.
Scroll all the way down (the random order is, well, random). Catch up and get some repeat views and if you missed some. They’re in reverse chronological order, so if you’re up-to-date, just skim off the top!
News for Gaming Ballistic:
- The first edition of Hall of Judgment hardcover is on sale for 50% off at both the Gaming Ballistic store and Warehouse 23. Pick it up for $12.50.
- The Citadel at Nordvorn, Hall of Judgment 2nd Edition, and Fantastic Dungeon Grappling print books US arrival schedule is now really really set, since the ship sailed from the UK on July 17 with the books aboard. If everything goes to plan, they’ll be arriving at Studio 2 for distribution/US fulfillment Aug 13-14 unless we get either lucky or unlucky.
- Art is starting to really flow in for all five Perilous Journeys, and they’re still available for pre-order. Contracted and approved the cover sketch for Vampire Hunter Belladonna, the 32-page solo adventure currently being written by David Pulver. The cover for Ironskull Castle got final sketch approval and Juan expects it to be done this weekend.
- Overall, I am still hopeful to send out preview PDFs of at least four, if not five, adventures. Some will be lacking in art more than others, but all will be playable.
GURPSDay is in its sixth – GURPSDay started in February 2013, a year after I started Gaming Ballistic. Things have slowed down a bit, and I’ll be considering how to revitalize this weekly activity. I’d like to see an average of 100 posts here per week – one per blog, ish – so we’ll see what we can do to get creative juiced flowing.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.
