“Ten for Ten,” GURPS Line Editor Sean Punch’s presentation of 10 rules from his writing that he wishes he could beam to his last-decade self, because they’re worthy to be part of the Basic Set!
“Gaming in the Ancien Régime,” a guide to how William H. Stoddard would use his award-winning GURPS Social Engineering as part of a French swashbuckling campaign.
“Into the Wilderness,” Matt Riggsby’s revision of his best-selling GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Adventure 1: Mirror of the Fire Demon with outdoor-encounter options from GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 16: Wilderness Adventures.
“Elemental Xia Champions vs. the Shenguai,” Jason “PK” Levine’s update of his GURPS Monster Hunters series that adds options from GURPS Thaumatology: Chinese Elemental Powers
“Horde Ninja,” Peter V. Dell’Orto’s taken on Dungeon Fantasy ninja as monsters . . . including a trait that makes them stronger as the horde gets picked off!
“Revisiting High-Tech,” a couple of new options of interest to gun-toting heroes, from GURPS High-Tech co-author Hans-Christian Vortisch.
This month’s Pyramid also offers a Random Thought Table that goes beyond imagination, plus an Odds and Ends with GURPS City Stats for 1720’s Paris and some other secrets.
