Another week in the life of GURPS

[dr_kromm]

I dub this week "Douglas the Ferret," for reasons Made in China. The latest and greatest on GURPS includes the following:

• We released the much-anticipated GURPS Social Engineering, by Bill Stoddard (whswhs). My plug for it is here. The short version is that if your adventures feature deceit, diplomacy, flirtation, politics, propaganda, or riots, then you want this one. If they don't . . . get the book and get with it!

• Nikki sent out the rough PDF of GURPS Power-Ups 4, by PK (peekitty), for review. There will probably be minor modifications, but we may well see this in 2011.

• David Chart submitted his final draft of Transhuman Space: Wings of the Rising Sun.

• Matt Riggsby (wombattery) turned in his final draft of GURPS Locations: Hellsgate. It might have something to do with demons. Rest assured that It has nothing to do with steam tunnels, though.

• We've posted a call for playtesters for GURPS Martial Arts: Technical Grappling, by Doug Cole (douglascole). If you know anything at all about grappling, then why not submit an application? Get it – "submit"? (Yeah, it's been that kind of week.)

Lots of other projects moved forward, too . . . but I can't talk about those beyond name-dropping a writer or declaring, "I wrote some words." It suffices to say that there's a whole lot in the GURPS bullpen.

My bank is on California time. That means that my direct deposit won't be available to me until 3:00am South Carolina time of 2011-Nov-01. Barring an unforeseen disaster, a copy of Social Engineering will be mine by 3:01am. :)
