It’s a very crunchy issue primarily aimed at those who use http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/psionicpowers/“>GURPS Psionic Powers, but can of course also be used in other contexts. The articles within are: Expanded Psychokinesis by Christopher R. Rice, Random [...]

For this year’s Gen Con, the guys behind http://www.enginepublishing.com/eureka-501-adventure-plots-to-inspire-game-masters“>Eureka put together an outline for a fantasy mini-campaign created from the adventure plots in the book. It’s really a great example of Eureka’s utility, which is a reason I’d recommend it to any regular GM. The outline was just made available for download – you can [...]
