So updating to Revised has turned out to be a much bigger project with more delays than I had thought. You might notice some of what I've put in isn't completely loyal to the FASA books. I have much respect for FASA, and their writing is very sharp, but they made a lot of decisions about the game that didn't feel right for me so I omitted a few things deliberately. Characters and Technology are finally done with a bunch of new fighting styles and probably double the number of guns that were in the original draft. I don't know if players will ever shoot all of the gunsI have made GURPS stats for but overall I think more choices give a fuller view of the world. There are also tons of lovely little tweaks brought to us by Revised plus some off-canon things that were thrown in by suggestions from my players. Also we are doing a major overhaul of Wyrd Powers including some much overdue rules for Antimony. Expect that to be up in a few months after we get time to playtest what we're working with..

I've added a new chapter of the rules for Jobs in the Fading Suns world. It's an odd roleplaying aid, but now that I made it I'm sort of astounded that every roleplaying game doesn't have one. I should be putting up a character sheet for ships sometime soon. We're working on a GM's guide and it's pretty grueling to figure out what information a GM should have and what we can add to the game under the umbrella of pretty-much-cannon so it's taking a long time to finish. If you have ideas please drop us a line and make suggestions.

After getting the New Player's Guide and GM's Guide for revised edition for Christmas I'm going to be adapting many of the rules here. You'll likely see a few minor statistics changes and a lot of new gear and abilities. In the works now are some fighting styles for the Klaxi blade and Shield Breakers among a lot of other ideas I'm still running through my head for translation. Expect updates soon.

So after years of saying I'm going to put our home-brewed GURPS Fading Suns rules online, and with the assistance of Weebly, we are public and available for download. If you like what we've built tell a friend, and please give us feedback.
