Hello! I’m excited to see there’s a new community for GURPS. Currently, I’m running a survival horror mundane-fantasy game stuck in a modern day British town in which the characters have to survive their daily lives. It’s my first time GMing and its been fun so far!

My favorite part of GURPS is how simple or complex it can be. I like it’s flexibility. I’ve been using the GURPS lite edition but the fact that I can add or remove rules based on my needs is wonderful! I also like the simulation aspect of it as well, because it lends nicely to a more gritty, realistic and dangerous feeling.

How about you? Why do you use GURPS?

    I even know a Dungeons and Dragons DM who straight up replaced D20s with 3d6.

    Weird, I get the reasoning but I agree with what you said. Part of the fun of the d20 is the sheer chaos it can cause. I could see that being a welcome change if you’re trying to run a more realistic feel though. But then, I probably wouldn’t be running it in DnD lol
