Space - Second Edition (GURPS Sourcebook 1990 Steve Jackson Games #6005)

Description

GURPS Space Roleplaying in the Worlds of Tomorrow Second Edition The Future Is Yours! At last... the star-spanning sourcebook for the Generic Universal RolePlaying System. In the 128 pages of GURPS Space, you'll find: Detailed, scientifically correct rules for creating star systems and planets... either randomly, or to fit a specific campaign. 21 character types, with new advantages, disadvantages and skills for a future campaign. Three variant human races -- heavy-worlders, light-worlders and Spacers -- and guidelines for creating other forms. Four alien races. Meet the savage, near-human Gormelites; the graceful, aggressive Sparrials; the weird, sex-changing Pachekki; and the powerful, half-plant Treefolk. Science-fiction gadgets, weapons, and medical technology. Starship construction rules from TL8 (just around the corner) to TL15+ (science fantasy). Quick but detailed abstract ship combat rules -- no ship counters, just roleplaying -- for a quick determination of fleet damage, individual ship damage, and injury to characters. GURPS Space doesn't tie your game to a single background. Rather, it is designed for the creative GM who wants to develop his own universe! This book presents a wide variety of choices and background information to let you recreate your favorite science-fiction background -- or build your own. Years in the making, GURPS Space is a survey of the whole space-adventure genre as it relates to roleplaying. If you're ready to create your own future... it's yours. This book is designed for use with the GURPS Basic Set, Third Edition, but can be used as a sourcebook for any science fiction roleplaying campaign.

About Us
Hello fellow role playing enthusiast. I have been playing Dungeon's and Dragon's since 1976 and have played each version extensively. Since I first read Andre Norton's "Quag Keep", I have been scouting ahead in dungeon crawls, hurling fireballs, casting illusions, saving damsel's in distress, praying to the gods for aide and seeking a truly lawful and ordered society. As a dungeon master I am true to Gary Gygax's original teachings and have DM'd in Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Dark Sun and a few other settings of my own creation. I am a recovering addict of Dark Ages of Camelot and have played Witcher, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter's Night, Torment, Icewind Dale, Morrowind and Oblivion. I have dabbled in Magic the Gathering, Warhammer, Bloodbowl, Munchkin, Paranoia and am an avid board gamer as well.
I will do my best to keep you satisfied so
you will enjoy purchasing items from me now and in the future.
