GURPS Conversion Thread

What edition of GURPs are you planning on using?
I have the 4th ed stuff, unsure if there is something more recent.

GURPS Conversion Thread

Yep, 4th is the most recent as best I can tell. A bonus of GURPS - lots of books and it doesn't get rebuilt very often. I have a big collection of pdfs so if you need anything, let me know.

Character creation in GURPS is pretty straight-forward.

4 stats (ST = strength, DX = dexterity, IQ = intelligence, HT = health)
All stats default to 10 as average, 20 as human max.
Strength and Health cost 10 points/point
Dexterity and Intelligence cost 20 points/point

These four stats give you the secondary characteristics:
Damage and Basic Lift: based on strength, there are charts for those
HP: equals ST but costs +2 points/+1
Will: equals IQ but costs 5 points/+1
Perception: equals IQ but costs 5 points/+1
FP (fatigue points): equals HT but costs +3/+1
Basic Speed (reflexes + quickness): equals (HT + DX)/4, costs 5 points/+0.25
Basic Move: equals Basic Speed (rounded down) - encumbrance

Advantages fill out the character, like Powers in MnM.

Skills cost 1 point for the default, based on difficulty and stat.
Costs double for each +1 so 1pt for default, 2pt for +1, 4pt for +2, 8pt for +3, etc
You can buy Talents, which are advantages that provide a bonus to a group of skills

Magic: several different magical systems to interest you but mostly spells are built as skills. An advantage called Magery is required to learn spells but it's included in the roll.

Learning and casting spells involve rolling under a total of a stat (usually IQ) + Magery + skill level on 3d6

Finally, character points. You get x number of points. 150 in this case.
Then you can buy down your character by up to 75 points with disadvantages

So, you could spend 225 points then with 75 points in disadvantages, your total would be 150
