Gaming Ballistic on SJGames LIVE: 2pm Central TODAY, May 13
Douglas will be joining Hunter and the SJGames crew LIVE at 2pm today (Thursday, May 13 at 2pm Central time) on the SJGames YouTube Channel. I’ll be talking Dungeon Fantasy and the Delvers to Grow project.
Delvers to Grow
I want to be unusually forceful on my pitch here, because I firmly believe what I’m about to say: Delvers to Grow is an absolutely game-changing book for those who like GURPS and the Dungeon Fantasy genre If you find that the 250-point expectation is a higher-power campaign than you like to play, or find that you and your players get frustrated with character creation, this book is for you. You can do pick-up games at conventions or your FLGS with this book and have each newcomer make a character on the spot. Despite a “Nordlond” flavor to the art and examples, this is 100% exportable to any DFRPG and most DF games with no alteration. This is the recruiting tool you’ve been waiting for. Kevin has penned a system that allows chargen in Powered by GURPS to be fast. TFT Fast. OSR fast. 1st level D&D fast. Five to 15 minutes to a playable, robust, interesting character with only a few decisions required. Delvers to Grow is the best on-ramp to GURPS that has ever been written. Yes, I think it’s that good. I hope you do too. Please support Delvers to Grow. You won’t regret it.
