 Do you gain extra limbs when buying winged flight?
Posted: 2026-04-08T03:08:33+00:00
Author: /u/QuirkySadakohttps://www.reddit.com/user/QuirkySadako

The basic set seems to imply you kind of gain two arms made specifically for flight purposes.

So....

Can you add extra arm enhancements/limitations at 1/10 of modification percentage? Can you add the "Limb" limitation to a striker and attach it to the wing?

 Gurps: Mecha

Good morning all, I'm a new GURPS devotee and I've been loving making different characters and enjoying the breadth of options, it makes my head swim to be honest. But lately I've been watching a lot of Gundam, and I've been thinking of picking up the Gurps: Mecha book. I know that it's 3rd edition, but how much trouble would it be to port over? What would the major difference be between the editions when using Mechs? As always thank you for your help, everyone has been so welcoming and helpful with all my questions.

Some aviation advice + nice chemes

Long time had an idea to make a good schemes for an idea for an aviation campaign. Tried to do them for Mustang and BF109, but didn't found a 4ed-ready aviation list for GURPS. Googled a bit for a speed and a mass, figured out the ST/HP using the B483 formula (cubic roots are WIERD) and speed bonuses for using the in the chase (obviously the only valid use for a such vehicles). Figured out the parts using B554 table (i would use them whatever you would say, but feel free to discuss). I am right to count a tail as third wing? It does say so at B555:

Helicopter Rotor [H] or Wing [Wi]: A main or tail rotor, or major wing or tail section.

I feel like i can misinterpret this, but i can also feel like it's not gonna work if that would be just a "Body" part, or anything else really.

Gaps were filled by ChatGPT. I've probably could search for some weapon stats, but they seem right. Except aren't they had additional reflector sights and such? I feel like accuracy should've been way higher?

And DR question is opened. I've apsolutely empty-headed on that matter. Probably could search for armor thickness and do some counting (1 inch = 30 DR?) but again, i need smart people to answer.

Mustang equipped with HVAR rockets

Late Messershmidt

Any experience with such things anyone? And how do you think that charts look? Though i'm planning them using against players in a night bomber, that's just the test of an idea.

 A malediction affliction that is based on wether the target looks directly at a certain point in space?
Posted: 2026-04-06T07:19:37+00:00
Author: /u/QuirkySadakohttps://www.reddit.com/user/QuirkySadako

Imagine an attack that forces the target to perceive something that doesn't really exist (exemple: a floating eye, a wisp, a tiny black dot), and if they look directly to it even for a moment, they suffer the attack's actual effect (exemple: some sort of binding, blindness or insane damage)

Such effect would probably involve some sort of limitation that makes it useless against targets without some kind of directional way of perceiving the world with eletromagnetic waves, and require a roll against... something... to avoid looking at the point, but it would probably only be allowed once you find out that looking into such point of interest is the hability's trigger

Oh! And there's the issue of getting into the fight already knowing about how it works, but having no idea of how exactally it looks like or some other small features, like direction/angle and stuff like that. You'd probably be at a certain penalty at the... roll against something, since you know what you have to do, and but not what exactally should you be avoiding.

 Damage and Rapid Fire Question
Posted: 2026-04-06T03:48:52+00:00
Author: /u/Lokjaw37https://www.reddit.com/user/Lokjaw37

If you score multiple hits with a piercing ranged weapon, at what point do you subtract DR and multiply the damage?

For example, if I score 2 hits with an auto pistol that does 2d pi+ damage, which of the below would I do?

- Roll 2d, subtract DR, then multiply by 1.5, then repeat for the second shot

- Roll 4d, subtract DR, then multiply by 1.5

 Negative Size Modifier?
Posted: 2026-04-06T00:39:19+00:00
Author: /u/Ok-Layer6649https://www.reddit.com/user/Ok-Layer6649

Hey gang, I was making a character that was going to be a lizard or something of the like, and I was just wondering what the mechanical advantages or disadvantages were for having a negative size modifier, I can't seem to find it in the basic set book. Are there any? Can I just be 2 feet long and parry full grown men and stuff? Is it more suggestions, like they suggest that you should have your hp kinda close to your strength for a realistic campaign? Lmk
