Following along from the first iteration from Mailanka’s Musings Psi-Wars, I start with a basic concept. I’ll be writing this as I go rather than looking ahead and following his outline, so there may be some contradictions, changes in direction, or some rambling. Here goes… Bug Hunt: The Concept Bug Hunt will be a […]
I've been reading from a couple of GURPS blogs lately as inspiration for some GURPSified Aliens stuff. Mailanka's Musings has been running a series on making a Star Wars knock-off called Psi-Wars.
