Another week in the life of GURPS

Sorry for the lack of content these past two weeks. It's February . . . in Canada. That means snow and cold, cold and snow, and short days. Maybe I'm even a little depressed. But at least I have GURPS news!

• We just released my GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles. Yay! This is an item that I wanted to write for months and months, but only had time to write this winter. Check it out if you like your wizards to be more than just pointy-hatted guys with big lists of spells.

• We also uploaded Pyramid #3/4: Magic on the Battlefield this week, with support for GURPS Mass CombatGURPS Power-Ups 1: Imbuements, and GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles. I confess to significant involvement here, too.

• Nikki sent me the rough PDF of GURPS Psionic Powers, by Jason Levine ([info]peekitty). I have it here, and hope to read it before too late next week.

• It's possible that I'm writing a short GURPS Dungeon Fantasy item inspired by things in my own fantasy campaign. (Not monsters . . . those would be Things.)

• The first draft of GURPS Low-Tech got a two-week extension so that it will more closely agree with the three GURPS Low-Tech Companion PDFs being prepared to support it. I hope that you can forgive us.

Great uploads to e23!

I see you're talking about a possible new Dungeon Fantasy work here. Another DF installment written by you would be great!
Still, I think an expansion in traps (or dungeon challenges), monsters and treasures would be very appreciated by the community. But I know that involves lots of work if we want a quality product.

(A small concern mine: writing many *short* DF supplements can give the impression of scattering and dispersion within the sub-line. In addition, is more costly to make PoDs of them. Anyway, you already know all this.)

Cheers
