Space Homebrew

Greetings, players! This page contains useful information about our Space Homebrew campaign starting in the Fall, 2024.

GAME PLATFORM

We will be using Foundry Virtual Tabletop (VTT) for this game instead of Fantasy Grounds. Foundry does not require any software for you to download. You will simply join my campaign via a web browser like Chrome using a link I provide.

DOWNLOADABLE RESOURCES

The following links are to resources I may be drawing from to create our “Homebrew” world setting. You are NOT expected to read any of this but if you would like to see what is possible you might want to dig around. The most useful link to new players would be GURPS Lite or the full GURPS Characters Core Rulebook to get a better understanding of the rules of the game and how GURPS is played. The rest of the resources contain skills and content that we may draw upon as well but are not necessary for you to read.
