Ultra-Tech: UAC Plasma Rifle

Ultra-Tech: UAC Plasma Rifle

Remember Pyramid #3-37? The one with the Blaster and Laser Design System article? I do. If you do, I suggest you to check out GURB and Hard Maths, as they have a ton of additional options for that article. Let's play around with the beam weapon design system and try to recreate the plasma rifle from Doom.

Monsters: Battle Alpha/Beta/Gamma

Monsters: Battle Alpha/Beta/Gamma

I'm kind of swamped with various projects right now, so let's squeeze out a simple monster post that converts three creations from the Geneforge video game series. They are big, strong, resistant to damage, but are a bit smarter than the thahds from the previous post. Fur is optional, according to the game's wiki.

Monsters: Thahds

Monsters: Thahds

While I'm working on something bigger, let's do some more Geneforge writeups. Thahds are simple battle creations that can absorb a lot of physical damage, but are vulnerable to magic. There are several thahd variants, but only two of them are described on the wiki - so there you go.

Arena: Simple Ultra-Tech Gunfight

Arena: Simple Ultra-Tech Gunfight

Let's step away from fantasy beatdowns and try out a simple Ultra-Tech gunfight. The arena is quite cramped, has lots of cover. We're not going to use too many extra rules here (such as scopes, HUD links, grenades, and all that).

Sorcery: Geneforge Shaping

Sorcery: Geneforge Shaping

It's time to fulfill my first patron request - do a writeup of some Geneforge stuff. I played the first game in the series a long time ago, but not for long, because the game decided to wipe my save files, so I got too salty to replay it. But from what I remember, I liked it a lot. I will try to GURPSify it based on what can be looked up on the game's wiki and on the requester's words.

Eggplant Patreon

Eggplant Patreon

Eggplant is selling out! I decided to open up a Patreon page, just in case somebody wants to support me. Locking content behind a paywall goes against my principles, so don't worry about that - there won't be any patron-exclusive content. I have finished, I believe, my "minimal program", so now I do not have any direction. Getting suggestions and requests could help both me and you. In any case, I appreciate any support, and I hope you find my stuff useful.

Monsters: Elemental Grues

Monsters: Elemental Grues

Elemental grues are tainted elemental creatures from Complete Arcane. Their mere presence disrupts elemental magic. These creatures are prized by many wizards, for at the heart of each grue lies a pearl-like magic object, each carefully etched with the arcane workings of an elemental spell suitable for copying into a spellbook. This spell is the only thing that remains of the creature if it is slain. And now we're done with the small bestiary from Complete Arcane.
