Cthulhu Dice

Serving Cthulhu is fun . . . except for all those other cultists out to get you. So get them first!

Cthulhu Dice lets you drive your rivals mad . . . very, very quickly. Players take turns rolling the big, beautiful, custom 12-sided die, embossed with tentacles, Elder Signs, and more. Destroy your opponents' sanity! Better yet, steal it. But watch out for Cthulhu -- when he comes up, he takes sanity from everyone! 18 glass Sanity marbles are included. Lose all your marbles and your're mad. The last sane cultist wins . . . unless everyone goes mad together. Then Cthulhu wins!

Cthulhu Dice plays in 5 to 10 minutes, and is fun for 2 to 6 players.

One large custom die, 18 glass marbles, baggie, and rules. Stock #131315, UPC 837654320396. $4.99.

Munchkin Fairy Dust (Reprint)

Meet the Sparkly Good Fairy. She wants all the munchkins to play nice, and she's willing to bash heads to make sure they do. Play her way, and she'll bribe you with Fairy Dust. Otherwise, you might end up fighting her instead. And if you don't take her out, she'll be back again and again . . .

Fairy Dust is a 15-card expansion for classic Munchkin. It introduces the Sparkly Good Fairy and her deck of Fairy Dust cards -- extra rewards for munchkins who are willing to help each other. (It's perfectly munchkinly to be nice . . . as long as you get something cool for doing it!) Every card in the set is full-color!

Munchkin Fairy Dust is fun whether you stick with the core Munchkin set or play with all the expansions you can get their hands on. And at less than four bucks, it's a no-brainer!

Fairy Dust is a fin-seal pack. All packs contain the same 15 cards.

This standalone pack is out of print, but you can get the cards from this expansion (as well as the cards and dice from Munchkin Fairy Dust Dice!) in Munchkin Game Changers.

Fin-seal pack containing 15 cards. Stock #1427, UPC 837654320211. $3.99.

GURPS Big Lizzie

There's trouble right here in Nobles, Arizona. That's trouble with a capital "T," and that rhymes with "D," and that stands for . . . dinosaurs?!

Yeah. It's a long story, pardner. This here's a yee-haw yarn involving a band of bandits, a chest-pounding chase, and the final fate of a fetching filly named Donna Nesbitt. Oh, and barrels of bullets graciously given new homes in roving reptilians, to help those cranky critters rest a spell.

GURPS Big Lizzie is an adventure for a gang of gunslingers seeking to set things right in the Old West. It's best suited for a group of greenhorns saddling up for their first ride, but it can be adapted to those more seasoned in the saddle. Suffice it to say, this tale forges its own trail early on, and any heroes hoping to save the day (and the dame) best hold on tight.

What comes in GURPS Big Lizzie? In addition to everything you need to take this adventure from unlikely start to impossible finish, you'll get:

• A detailed setup that provides an optional backstory and sufficient motivation to get in the saddle fast!
• A full map of the island this adventure takes place on. (An "island" -- in Arizona?! Yeah; like we said, it's a long story. Let's call it a "desert isle" and leave it at that.)
• Over a dozen dangerous denizens of the desert, made all cinematic and exciting-like. These ain't your father's turtles and crocs . . .
• Ideas for turning the events of Big Lizzie into an ongoing campaign. Trust me; there's a wagon full of weirdness the heroes can help with.

If you want a rip-roaring tale that'll make your drinking buddies think you've been in the sun too long, you can't go wrong with Big Lizzie.

Pyramid #3/18: Space Exploration

The heavens await! This month's Pyramid -- the PDF magazine for roleplayers -- brings new ideas to the void by examining "Space Exploration." This issue includes:

• "Shores Beyond the Night," an alternate Earth where competing nations explore the solar system for fame and fortune. Cross-time crusaders from the GURPS Infinite Worlds setting can investigate this timeline through out-of-this-world adventures, or homegrown heroes can seek to solve its mysteries by themselves.
• "Close Encounters of the Unwanted Kind," five offworld enigmas that can provide the cosmically curious with opportunity, danger, or both!
• "Cold Horizon," a scientific discussion of what's needed to turn a comet into a colony. This "chilling" article includes an example icy address, detailed in GURPS Spaceships terms.
• "Secondhand Space Exploration," a look at using, losing, and abusing space probes. These traveling tin cans make it possible to brave the breathless beyond on a budget -- or provide enticing discoveries for flesh-and-blood explorers . . .
• "Looting Your Life Pod’s Locker," a look at equipping the escape vessels from GURPS Ultra-Tech -- including options for budget, luxury, or military emergency gear!

Pyramid also has discoveries that make the future fun: a simple system to create alien ruins for heroes to explore, Murphy's Rules with Greg Hyland, Steven Marsh's Random Thought Table, and other odds and ends. With this issue, you'll replenish your creative fuel and rocket to the stars like never before!

GURPS Classic: Blood Types

Vampires. Immortal and nearly invulnerable, their mystic powers and supernatural servants protect them from danger. They thrive in the darkest hours of night and haunt the dreams of every culture and every age of man. Some merely crave your blood; others drain the very essence of life, leaving you an empty, bitter husk. And they always thirst for more . . .

GURPS Blood Types is a look at the vampire in legend . . . and, yes, in history . . . through the centuries and around the world. It explores dozens of vampiric types, from the traditional Gothic aristocrat to the bizarre African adze to the enigmatic Albanian vyrolakos . . . usable as foes, allies, or player characters.

Transhuman Space Classic: Broken Dreams

Stay and Fight . . .

On Earth in 2100, some are reaching for the stars . . . but others struggle just to survive. Much of the home world remains mired in war and intrigue, as powerful corporations and high-tech armies fight over resources, markets, and ideas. Cities on the edge of chaos are battlegrounds for covert operations and high-stakes diplomacy, and the developing nations see themselves falling further and further behind.

Nations trapped in poverty, environmental disaster areas, and hellholes run by insane dictators . . . high-tech terrorism, rebellion, and crime, and rules for creating biological and chemical weapons . . . dangerous genetic designs, obsolete cybertechnology, and police-state software . . . all part of daily life in Broken Dreams.

(Note that this is an e23 reprint of a product based on GURPS Third Edition rules.)

GURPS Psionic Campaigns

Harnessing the unfathomable power of the mind isn't as easy as it sounds! Fortunately, GURPS Psionic Campaigns is here to help navigate the trickiest aspects of incorporating those abilities into adventures. This supplement contains:

• A brief history of psionics, from ancient times to modern research.
• A discussion of various ways to utilize psi in a campaign, both thematically and logistically.
• A full description of how to use GURPS to create the kind of psionic campaign you want, examining options from GURPS Psionic Powers, GURPS Powers, and the GURPS Basic Set. How should skills relate to powers? What power level makes sense? How many abilities should heroes have? What should Unusual Background cost? All of these questions and more are analyzed!
• Additional new GURPS options, including rules for godlike psi, underpowered abilities, and pre-modern psis (including psychobotanics).
• A thorough study of the various options for building a world with psionics. How common should psi be? How much does the public know -- and how does it react? Learn the implications for all of these decisions.
• Over a dozen campaign frameworks built around psionics, including political psis, psychic investigators, and psionic soldiers.
• A discussion of how to deal with the trickiest psionic powers and abilities (including Precognition, Telepathy, and Teleportation), plus ways to challenge psychics via psychotronics, anti-psi, and entirely mundane misinformation.

Whether you're looking to add psi abilities to your setting or build a campaign that focuses on mental mastery, GURPS Psionic Campaigns will set your mind at ease.

Regardless of how well you know the alphabet, you're bound to learn something new!
