	GURPS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		GURPS was part of the first wave of role-playing games that eschews random generation of characters in favor of a point-based system.
		Together with the Hero System, GURPS was one of the first role-playing games in which characters are created by spending points to get characteristics, skills, advantages, getting more points by accepting low characteristics, disadvantages etc. This approach is increasingly more common, in part due to the success of GURPS.
		GURPS became part of the hacker sub-culture, when the company's Austin offices were raided by the Secret Service.

	GURPS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		GURPS is an attempt to create an all-encompassing, "universal" role-playing system that allows players to role-play in any environment they please without having to create a new set of rules for each game.
		GURPS was not the first role-playing system to present a "universal" set of rules for different gaming environments.
		GURPS' emphasis on its "generic" aspect has proven to be a successful marketing tactic: it is one of the most popular role-playing games on the market today.

		This book is a whole campaign, the length of several gaming sessions, for GURPS Supers, set in the world of GURPS Wild Cards, in 1991.
		GURPS Wild Cards is the GURPS sourcebook detailing the world from the novel series by George R. Martin of the same name.
		Unlike GURPS Vampire - The Masquerade this book is truly generic and lets the Game Master choose freely which type of vampire to let loose in her adventures.

		Books for vehicles, books for superheroes, books on playing in the land of the Aztecs, the list goes on.
		The template books (GURPS Warriors, GURPS Wizards) attempt to address this, and tend to succeed in my opinion, but throwing a whole extra book into the mix is not an argument in favor of the game's accessibility.
		GURPS is a good system (yeah, there're flaws, but what system doesn't have flws?), and the sourcebooks (especially the historical ones) are all well-written, each a treasure trove of ideas for most any game/campaign.

		GURPS Black Ops is the creation of Jeff Koke, with embellishments and lots of additional text by Yours Truly (I did chapter 4 on); I'm proud to have been Jeff's coauthor.

	Definition of GURPS
		One of the strengths of GURPS, say its proponents, lies in its large number of worldbooks, describing settings from several science fiction, fantasy, and historical settings, adding specific rules but mainly giving general information for any game.
		GURPS also became part of the hacker sub-culture, when the company's Austen offices were raided as part of Operation Sundevil, which was targeting the author of GURPS Cyberpunk.
		Late in development, after objections from Steve Jackson over some of the game's violent content, the GURPS character building system was replaced with an Interplay-created system, the GURPS name was dropped, and the game was released under the name Fallout.

	What GURPS books do I need for fantasy? - RPGnet Forums
		The Grimoire books are useful as well, though not necessary if you're thinking of a lower magic game.
		Undead is another excellent book that I haven't had much use for.
		As a matter of fact, the magic system in GURPS Spirits is superior to the standard one, although is not very adequate to high fantasy, it would do great in a low or dark fantasy campaign.

		They are wonderful for mining of ideas and I have a huge list of GURPS books that I would still like to buy.
		GURPS already has all of that covered, all we need is a world book and a mutant manual.
		There is alot of potential for such a book and it could easily crossover with GURPS fantasy, GURPS arabian nights, and a ton of others.

	Gurps world books - HERO GAMES Discussion Boards
		GURPS Illuminati would probably be on my list of the top 5 RPG books ever.
		I love GURPS, and for a long time in the Dark Ages I played it probably on a par with Hero (I especially liked it for non-super powered things, and I used GURPS Wild Cards quite a bit).
		Now its not so clear cut, GURPS has some great books and many people buy them that don't even play GURPS, so far HERO has been very impressive and if they keep up the quality they have shown so far they will definately be competing for the same markets.

	Amazon.ca: Gurps Goblins: Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		GURPS Goblins is surprisingly inexpensive for a book printed throughout on slick paper with (hilarious) full-color illustrations.
		The society and biology of the goblins (which are seamlessly tied together) are fascinating as well as funny--these may vaguely resemble the standard fantasy RPG goblins, but they stand out as one of the most unique races to be developed for any setting, fantasy or science fiction.
		And it's a game-within-a-game, as the whole point of goblin existence is to climb socially (due to their biology, virtually all goblins start in the gutter, no matter who their parents were), so there are very full setting-specific rules for social climbing that can be applied to other settings.
