Re: [WW] GURPS: WWII (something about special forces)



Just in case those on the list who might be interested but didn't know Gurps
has just released a W.W.II book and its massive. Done like their Traveler
series it is a base core book (GURPS System) to be followed by numerous
source books and campaign books. It is very detailed And I highly recommend
it as a resource for the war from a game angle. Still  I prefer the D20
system.
