My nonline Gurps campaing

[BigBunny]

Got some stuff about the Gurps game i'm running written down and put online.

I should finish it someday but for now this is what i have managed to make..

System: Gurps

Setting: Shadow World

http://kotisivu.mtv3.fi/SW/

Not a bad adaptation Veikko.

I'll have to look over the rules a bit more, I didn't see anything on how are you handling the Navigator Guild.

Are you using the standard GURPS races from Fantasy Folk or did you create new templates to capture the same feel of the Rolemaster races?

same question with Professions and training packages. Are you just encouraging general concept builds or did you make any as guidelines for your players?

I ask because I've found that at Cons templates allow me to let players make their characters on the spot if they use them. Otherwise I tend to have some pre-gens on hand.

I lost teh interest for updating the page since i was so busy doing web stuff of workish sorta.

Totally own races, tried to make them as close to teh ones for Rolemaster.

We were never dabbling with the new Rolemaster, so all those packages/training things weren't my consern.

Most of these cha's i converted from RM. New ones will be made depending on the game situation, either i'll have very strict guidelines or if the situation allows the player will have free hands.

The players themselves have made the Navigators in to semigod like things, already when we were playing with RM. I don't have to worry about them nor The Loremasters, they just think

"In RM those guys must be like level 30-60 and have much magic stuff, we will behave"

The cost to use Navigators is down a lot, and still rediculous. Well good. 1 Less NPC
