New Techniques

 Some custom techniques. Some were inspired by D&D 4e, others by necessity (I felt the need for a way to have move and attack without the 9 skill limitation, hence Controlled Charge and Dynamic Attack). I've also added my own dual attack house rule which comes with a technique. New Techniques Houserule: There are no (Hard) techniques. All techniques are average. Reminder: Unarmed combat skills (Brawling, Boxing and Karate) are also melee weapon skills.      Power Attack Defaults : Pre-requisite Skill -4 Pre-Requisites : Any Weapon skill. Max : Pre-requisite Skill -1 This is an attack where you sacrifice accuracy for power. Roll against Power Attack to Hit. If the attack succeeds, deal damage as usual but add +2 or +1 per die, whichever is better.   Tide of Iron (revised) This is combination of a regular weapon attack to the torso with the Shield Shove. Defaults : Combination ( weapon/torso + Shield Shove/Torso ) Weapon Skill-6+Shield ...

The Magic System

This was heavily inspired by Generic Universal Eggplant's Wizardry System, as well as the Modular Powers from this other site I found one day. And then I copied the calamity table from no school grognard College Ritual Book Magic. The main thing I wanted to do was have being an effective caster something possible on 62pt games, and not become overpowered at 250pt games. The other thing I wanted was having all the traditional (in my mind) parts of being a caster still exist, so every spell requires chanting, hand movements and so on. https://enragedeggplant.blogspot.com/2023/09/introduction-to-wizardry.html https://greyson.conlang.org/2020/04/08/modular-powers-a-new-flexible-powers-magic-system-for-gurps/ https://noschoolgrognard.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html Houserules For certain spells that are clearly weaker than their price indicates, (GM choice) after reaching the -80% max limitation, apply the remaining limitation on top. For example. 50pts -120% =10pts due to the max 80, t...

Modern Armor adjusted for Behind Armor Blunt Damage.

 Following my version of edge protection, here's my take on making modern armor less "all or nothing". The basic idea is from: https://jetgurps.blogspot.com/  The idea for my version is simple: Instead of just turning piercing damage to blunt, which doesn't really do anything if the enemy didn't hit the vitals (or making it worse, as pi- would have its damage increased!), the damage is halved and turned into blunt.  BABT Modern Armor Table The armor on this table covers all body parts except Neck, Face and Eyes. To help choosing armor, also provided is the cost and weight for a "Vest" which covers only the Torso. Armor DR Weight Cost Layer Flexible? Vest Weight Vest Cost TL Silk 1/3 1 34 180 Outer Y 11 61 6 Rubber 2/6 1 ยช 37 186 Out...
