Lizard man ranger joins party

DM sick. Game was canceled

My group in high school and then at my first stab at college did allow moving characters between different DMs. However, neither allowed brining in a character from an external group. I think this comes down to play style but there was also some concern about whether an imported character had...

GM didn't sleep. Game aborted.

I'm currently running a game in my local game store using DFRPG (and the Delvers to Grow supplement for it). I think we are up to session 8 of what I intended to run for a week or two.

Please share your recipe, thanks!

armor prevents rat bite injuries

I am currently running a weekly DFRPG game at a local game store. Had 4 new players show up this past session, 2 of them just as the initial two finished character generation. Unfortunately one of them was about 10 and had just finished his second monster energy drink. Once I realized I needed...

New player joined; chaos incarnate

It would have been possible without the guidance provided in Delvers to Grow, which is closing out its kickstarter. Certainly I am not organized enough to do that for myself, let alone walk 3 newcomers through the process.

four characters created; one hour ======================= I should add this was a powered by GURPS game, two players have never done an RPG before and one had D&D experience

I was in a 2e game where we were using points. However, those were allocated when memorizing the spells rather than at casting. Several of the alternative Magic systems in GURPS also use points

The pick up game I ran was fairly low resolution combat. Roll to hit, roll to defend if able and roll damage if the hit landed. While we did use minis and a map, I was not using every rule available for encumbrance, poor footing, cost for changing facing, target locations.... I'd say I was at a...

One from my regular group, one D&D player and two total newcomers.

I ran a pick up game of Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game earlier this evening using Delvers to Grow. I had four players. One had played GURPS before. One had played D&D but not GURPS. Two had never played a roleplaying game before. Each had a character within an hour. (I can probably speed...

...And it has funded. At this point there is essentially no risk in backing it. $35 gets you five beautiful (electronic) books, with relevant vtt and software support. The art is beautiful. Character creation is FAST. If we can get to 600 backers, we get a sixth book.

My understanding is provided this "market test" does well, Doug will publish additional material for lower end Dungeon Fantasy. (In other words, "back this.") From a GMing standpoint, it means fewer enemies and enemies with fewer special abilities. IMHO, that along with lower competency on the...

Doug was just on the Steve Jackson Games live and indicated there will be support in both GURPS Character Sheet and GURPS Character Assistant for this. To clarify this (for other dummies like me) this means the modules will be available for those programs so you can use which ever of the two you...

I am so excited for this. I showed it to one of the players in my face to face group that should resume meeting at the end of the month. He had a Chun Li wanna be character built in 5 minutes. He did this with a general understanding of how GURPS works, but having never built a fantasy character...
