Review

GURPS (Generic Universal RolePlaying System) is the most flexible roleplaying system ever created. With just this Basic Set, players can adventure into any world they can imaging. Rules are included for all types of weapons from clubs to lasers. For wizards and magic there are more than 100 spells. For psionic powers -- the imagination is the only limit! GURPS avoids having to switch game systems whenever the players change campaigns by giving one set of clear, comprehensive rules to cover any background! The GURPS system is full supported with over 100 different worldbooks, sourcebooks and adventure modules for all kinds of campaigns. And more are developed every month. GURPS is even supported by "Pyramid" magazine with still more adventures and backgrounds. GURPS make the Game Master's job easy and fun. All the rules are carefully organized, indexed and cross-referenced. Charts and tables are clear and legible. There's even a "Quick Start" section, with a solo adventure to help introduce new players to the system. Players can create exactly the character they want to play whether its a favorite fictional hero or an original invention. Players can choose from over 350 Advantages, Disadvantages, and Skills. They can customize their character with personal Quirks. Now in it's 3rd edition, Gurps: Basic Set continues to be an indispensable addition to any roleplay gamer's reference shelf! -- Midwest Book Review
