[QUOTE="robconley, post: 4328816, member: 5636"] Because they write crap adventures. No wait hear me out. The adventure are written like mini sourcebooks. So they fail both as adventure and as a sourcebook. It sad because most have good quality writing. Adventures should be ready to run with little or no prep. The closest that comes to that ideal is Orcslayer. The lack of ready to run adventures, and a decent fantasy monster manual means GURPS suffer in attracting players of the world's most popular role-playing game. I think it is a shame as I think GURPS could do better especially internally vs sales of munchkin. As for putting my mouth where my money is I have submitted proposals to e23 and the regular route and they all seem to go down a black hole. I suppose I should try submitting to Pyramid. For what is worth my recent project "Points of Light" for Goodman Games is systemless ([url]http://www.goodman-games.com/4380preview.html)[/url]. I ran a fantasy gurps game for nearly 20 years and a lot of themes I used for Points of Light were developed in that campaign. If you see a level like (Ftr3) multiply the level by 20 and apply the closest template and you will roughly get the character points I used for my GURPS campaign.
