Another week in the life of GURPS

Ah, Friday night. It might be time for the weak to rest, but line editors are made of sterner stuff. Arr! Without further ado, here's the latest on GURPS:

• We reviewed the draft PDF of Pyramid #3/3. More dog skull, baby, more dog skull. And propane – yeah! Look for this Real Soon Now.

• Nikki showed off a rough layout of GURPS Loadouts: Monster Hunters, by S.A. Fisher and Hans-Christian Vortisch. Garlic self-defense spray and silver-spitting man-portable miniguns shouldn't be too far off in the future.

• The final draft of GURPS Hot Spots: Renaissance Florence, by Matt Riggsby ([info]wombattery), has arrived.

• I finished my final draft of GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles. Perky. It'll go into production next week.

• In GURPS Spaceships news, David Pulver turned in the first draft of GURPS Spaceships 5. Yes, this comes on the heels of news that GURPS Spaceships 3 and GURPS Spaceships 4 are in editing. David is a machine when it comes to, er, machines.

• I did a two-hour (or thereabouts) podcast interview about GURPS-y stuff with Joe Meyer at Meanwhile…, a d20 Radio feature. Look for it soon.

• Yet more progress has been made on the first draft of GURPS Low-Tech. To be entirely honest, I spent about 1/4 of my time this week slaying rules dragons with the writers (especially [info]peterdellorto and [info]whswhs).

Good luck with the books. ILL is proving the bane of my existence on this project.

(Just as Excel is my saving grace. No way I'd have had the patience to do the math underlying the construction rules or container table on my own.)
