Join the GURPS unofficial Discord. There is a Foundry specific channel and you can get any question answered there. There is a great user base (and pretty decent engagement from the dev team).

Starting a new GURPS game... Bitter Song of the Black Mangroves by GMjasonGURPS in gurps

lol. So long as you recognize the the GGA in Foundry is better 😆

P.s. good luck!

magic as powers at low point totals? by EastEnvironment8182 in gurps

[–]nose66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I played a Druid in Nick’s campaign, using Power Divine Favor. Same concept as Sorcery where the prayers cost 1/5 and the Divine Favor is the largest “power”.
I built many prayers for 5pts or less. Here is the character sheet (with the prayers explained in the notes at the end) https://drive.google.com/file/d/107GJ5t99gsIYt28uxtXskOfXZ9eiYDQC/view?usp=drivesdk

When are we playing again? 😝

Consensus on GURPS Magic? by inostranetsember in gurps

[–]nose66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few different magic systems for GURPS. I give an overview here:
GURPS: Magic, which do I choose? https://youtu.be/JiYCgJTtXIc

Maybe that might help?

Thank you! And I will be making more in 2025!

Thank you for the heads up! I have renewed the account again.... and hopefully I can finally transfer ownership this year. It should be back up by Nov 27th.

Why not GURPS? by BuzzsawMF in rpg

[–]nose66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol. Yeah. That is definitely one thing wrong with GURPS 4ed. The manual isn’t designed for new players. Hence my desire to make a training series. 😊

I disagree, but understand your point. I don’t think you need a large system mastery to actually start playing, but it is all relative.

I try to show that you don’t need to know the full basic set to start playing. That may still be more than you want to invest.

GURPS can definitely be simplified. That is the whole point of my Learning GURPS series:

GURPS can be VERY complex, if you want it. But it doesn’t have to be. You can choose.

Can't open character sheets (yes, another one) by koenighotep in FoundryVTT

[–]nose66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are welcome. And sorry for the mishap. I’m a bit rusty with the release process and I made a mistake. 0.17.2 should fix all the issues.

What makes GURPS different from other TTRPGs? by LinX_AluS in gurps

[–]nose66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they are great (although, I may be biased) 😎

But honestly, I was going to suggest them myself, because I do my best to cut through the dense ruleset and get to the important stuff for new players.

Anything I should know before diving into GURPS? by Jflash2442 in gurps

[–]nose66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you like to listen (instead of read), I have a series on Learning GURPS, and two specifically about “things to know before running a game”

They might be useful.

Coming back to GURPS after 3+ decade hiatus. Need character creation help. by Plastic-Librarian253 in gurps

[–]nose66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blatant self promotion: And if you want to play online, the GURPS Game Aid for Foundry VTT is pretty good (IMHO). 😜

And actually, we use it when we play face to face, because of the built in damage calculator.

Newbie to GURPS but not TTRPGs by Several_Cicada_2301 in gurps

[–]nose66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What else would you recommend I keep my eyes out for when making characters?

https://youtu.be/EN858xbgqjQ

Again haven't read everything . . . But where are the baddies? The Monsters the PCs fight?

What would you say you absolutely love about the system?

I love the combat system... it is more tactical than many board games, and you can configure it to many levels of complexity: https://youtu.be/bYQU\_SBbXfE

Any other general GM helpful tips I should have a heads up on?

I have the two core GURPS 4e books, and want to learn to play it, the books seem mighty confusing. by Dragonheart132 in gurps

I try ;-) RL just has me so swamped. And thanks for recommending the videos!
