My experience with GURPS began back around 1998 when I bought a copy of the Third Edition Revised rules, although even back then I didn’t get to bring the game to the table. When Fourth Edition arrived in 2004, I enthusiastically collected the GURPS books as they were released. There were two or three false-starts with GURPS for me, but I really didn’t get into the game properly until about 3 years ago.
Some months back, I picked up a copy of the GURPS 1st Edition Boxed Set for a pittance. Fascinated as I am about the evolution of key roleplaying games, I also managed to pick up Man-to-Man around the same time. I spent a day or two exploring the sets and then did my usual thing of getting distracted.
There is something very attractive about the early GURPS products. There is no real nostalgia for the game itself…
