In serious need of GURPS!

What it says on the tin :))

Basically, I own a lot of GURPS 4E books, but I haven't had any opportunity to use them. And I'd really like to!

So, I'd be interested in any (I guess) GURPS game. Fantasy, sci-fi, horror... anything goes, really. I'd especially be interested in a solo game, but small group game would be fine, too.

Anyone interested? Please rMail me! :)

In reply to Varsovian (msg # 1):

Wow, I haven't seen a request for GURPS in forever.

I'm willing to run something.  You're just looking for any genre or have you recently changed your mind?  I have a few things I'd like to do.  In order of preference with most preferred at the top:

  1. 17th century European high seas style adventure.  Something like 7th Sea and Pirates of the Caribbean slammed together.
  2. Sci-fi setting at around TL 15.  Got a list of races I will happily convert to GURPS
  3. GURPSTech.  Yes, eons ago, one of the articles in Pyramid magazine had a GURPS version of Battletech/Mechwarrior
  4. Something along the lines of Space: 1889.  What if the space program began in the Steampunk era and used the science of the time to do it?  H G Wells style space travel.

Re: In serious need of GURPS!

Okay, I've received some proposals, but I'm always looking for more! :)

One specific idea I might want to try out: vampires. :) Somehow, I'm tempted to play a vampire game, but I don't have Vampire: the Masquerade, while Vampire: the Requiem somehow leaves me a little cold. So, how about some sort of GURPS-powered vampire game in an original setting?

Aside from that, I'm open to hearing all ideas :)

Re: In serious need of GURPS!

My first vote would be for a Vampire themed game, with my second probably going  to some 17th century goodness.

Don't want to step on any toes if you were looking for a solo experiancing of course, but if you would like another player, I'm game.

I'd be quite happy to sign up for any GURPS games as well.

Re: In serious need of GURPS!

Personally, I'd be interested in modern vampires :)

Another concept I'd like to try is a fantasy one: adventures of a female warrior that is also a cultist (or ex-cultist) of some dark god... although not necessarily an evil one.

All of the above sounds good to me.

Re: In serious need of GURPS!

Okay, Varsovian, you had mentioned going with the space on in the mails, but with some of the interest showing here (and my piratical stuff being exploited elsewhere), I'm seeing "I don't care as long as it's GURPS," "As long as there are vampires," and "Amazonian cultist of 'Cthulhu' type stuff."

Then a touch of "Modern vampires?" and I think, I THINK we can do this with space.


Space vampire amazon cultists...GO!

If this is something you're interested in (not necessarily vampire amazon cultists, or vampire cultists or...all of those things in one character), say "Aye" and I'll flesh out a campaign.

Re: In serious need of GURPS!

I'll be opening the game in about an hour.

Basically, The Emperor-Lyricist Mok has ruled the Three Galaxies for the last thousand years after he summoned the Beast with the aid of the Voice.  There has been peace these last thousand years but now his Musicianship is bored.

Yes, you will get to play a vampire
an amazon
a cultist
or all of those in one character.
