This one's a bit of an indulgence... responding to Alex's recent call-in asking to hear the story so far in Karameikos, I've cobbled together some words and shared the tale. It's impossible to do justice to the experience at the table after the fact.

Yeah, it’s a @taleofthemanticore.bsky.social composition. That’s the full track (as far as I know).
This week GURPStalk received Four Questions: shows.acast.com/gurpstalk/ep...
That heart-warming moment when your newer #GURPS player tells you that the system really helps them to feel their character is ‘a real person’ within the fantastic Otherworld. 🎲🎲🎲
What's the power of pretend and the power of the imaginary? Of inhabiting a different Otherworld, of inhabiting a different person within an emergent tale? What is it about that which makes #ttrpg so compelling?

Something off my shelf today. I am delving the setting for a potential powered by GURPS experience in the Palladium world.
And the answer was… not yet. 😈 Aegis-2 “zombies” roaming the complex proved quite the challenge, even though they did access a Nanotech Lab and enter the Aegis-3 biocontainment area. Fun times! #CypherSystem

Today is Ariadne’s Thread session 6, our powered by #Cypher SF game. Will the party discover the secrets of Aegis-3 from the pre-Night biotech bunker they have infiltrated?

This week, it’s all about Turning Up on RPR: shows.acast.com/roleplayresc...
Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, and post the second sentence.
“For Catholics, the sacrifice of Jesus is made present once again during this ritual and made real for believers.”
Hi, just seen this comment. The post is in the context of role playing in a skirmish style using GURPS. I use just the Basic Set rules, specifically the Tactical Combat rules in Book 2: Campaigns. But if you are playing skirmish wargames, I would not use RPG rules to do that.
What do we mean when we use the term, ‘Point Salad’? Sounds like a topic for GURPStalk —> shows.acast.com/gurpstalk/ep...
