    COMPLETE your GURPS Book 2 of a the classic Basic GURPS set
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2006*

This book 2 of the GURPS basic set (4TH EDITION) The last edition was a single book of 256 pages plus instant characters section, but so much material was add to the new edition it would have weighed in at a total of 576 pages, while suitable for stoping bullets, a but unwieldy for gameplay, so Steve Jackson games have divided everything a player has to have is in book one, basic system rules and everything for character creation, just enough combat to get a player into the game. The rest of combat is this book. This book goes into detail  for what a GameMaster needs to know about physical  feats and combat (in greater detail). It covers vehicles and technology. It includes stats for animals and some monsters, along with a guide for world design and Game Mastering itself.  "Tool kit chapters let the GM make artifacts, character abilities, and entire game worlds (in fact an infinity of worlds, alternate, parallel, cross-genre, etc.) Don't get me wrong this is just for GMs. Players who enjoy detail and the creative side of the game will find this book inspiration for beginning their own campaigns. My point is it's not required, but Basic Set GURPS: Characters and Campaigns are designed to work together, pages and chapters are consecutively numbered and the index covers both books and repeated in both. SJ games has made the system easy to play, easy to learn and easy to get hooked. They have also made the new Basic Set easier to carry around. GURPS stands for Generic Universal Role Playing System and it is just that, it is the perfect for linking already existing d20 systems, creating cross-genre campaigns or making campaigns based on any book, movie, TV series or concept you or SJ Games can brainstorm (before the Wizards of the Coast edition we used GURPS to run Star Wars and Dr. Who campaigns). [...]  is an excellent resource for pre-generated PDS ranging from short adventures to whole sourcebooks. Like D&D, there is a considerable amount of GURPS material out there, either new and updated or old and out-of-print, anything you can imagine (Fantasy, the Prisoner, Horror, Swashbuckler, and loads of other supplements). The GURPS main web site is good too, [...]  most books and supplements hotlink from Amazon.

    Everything as promised, with endless potential
  

*by C***G on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2008*

I've been contemplating the purchase of this book for a couple of years now, and finally broke down to make the purchase.  The physical object itself is a thing of beauty.  It has the lovely full color design and quality printing and binding that past purchasers have come to expect from GURPS products.This isn't a product for somebody who wants to buy it and run a game the next weekend.  GURPS itself is less a game than a toolkit for making your own game.  Once you have the rules, you need to either create your own setting and character archetypes (what GURPS calls templates), or you need to purchase one of the many game world books published for use with the game.  Fortunately the book provides a lot of good guidance and examples.  The published material that describes game worlds is also excellent.  The high quality of this supporting material is what helped me decide to purchase 
  
GURPS Basic Set: Characters, Fourth Edition







  
  
     and 
  
GURPS Basic Set: Campaigns (4th Edition)







  
  
    .Given that caveat, I recommend this product for any gamer who wants to expand their gaming into new directions.  There's nothing revolutionary here, but this toolkit gives you what you need to produce any other kind of game that you want to play.  You might want to play ghost hunters right now, but in six months you can switch to a space opera, and six months after that to cape-wearing super heroes. And for any of those options, you can purchase additional supporting material, or just wing it on your own.  The number of games you get by purchasing this one set of books makes it an excellent bargain for the serious role player.

    Great Product!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2010*

The GURPS system is perhaps my favorite in all RPGs since its so comprehensive and versatile, yet everything comes fairly intuitively. With GURPS, you can adapt the rules in such a way to fit any setting, be it hack and slash fantasy or superhero mayhem or cyberpunk thriller. It isn't as innovative as systems such as Fate, but regardless, it is comprehensive enough to satisfy any roleplayer who wants a realistic experience. Also, characters are made from points not levels, so unlike DnD where higher level == higher combat prowess, a higher point total means you can spend the points on whatever you want. This unfortunately makes it a little more difficult for the GM, but not overly much.The one bad thing about the product physically is the binding, the first copy that I ordered had fallen entirely out of its binding and I've heard reports of editions falling apart within a few weeks, so maybe pick up the PDF from [...]
