Hmm, OKI I´ll try to explain it as far as I know..

I have never really played GURPS, but I have read about it and have friends who have tried it. The game is builed on the "basic" set insteadd of the now familiar DoD system. Basic is builed on attributes that gives a basic value to different skills and uses percent using D10 to decide your fate. GURPS rulebook is about how to create a character which is the sme for all the GURPS games, the sourcebooks lets you then take control over different environments and worlds, from fantasy to space.

Personally i prefer the DoD 3:ed becasue it is a solid system with good feedback from books and alot of sourcebooks, the now open format lets thirdparties make rulebooks, sourcebooks using the D20 system, i.e the corerules for DoD 3

edition. Alots of names eh?

Well GURPS is fun if you hve alot of sourcebooks, DoD you can play with the Character book and the Dungeon master guide, and you can use your own inspiration and quickly set off into any realn you like.

MYHO this is.. and with evil Yoda beside me, talking like this i am.. *Wraff!Ä
hehe, one evvil Yoda less ther now be *WOLFGRIN*
