-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey all! A few questions about 4th ed. GURPS, most of which I'm sure have been done to death, but I haven't been on the listserve for too long.
First of all, I've rabidly resisted buying 4th ed. because of my fairly paltry college student income and because my collection of 3rd ed. rivals the library of congress... But, after *cough* digitally acquiring clandestine copies of 4th edition, it looks to actually be substantially better, or at least much better organized than 3rd. What with Amazon offering the books at about $25, how does it hold up in play compared to 3rd? For that matter, while I fully know that downloading GURPS books is evil, satanic, and a deadly curse to gaming everywhere (but, I actually am planning to buy the books, which I wouldn't have done otherwise!), how heinous is keeping digital copies of the books when I own the real ones? Morally, no problem to me, but legally does it follow the same precedent as music, where it is legal? I'm not asking for legal advice, just curious if anyone know off the top of their heads / if people do the same thing. OCR-ed books are awesome what with instant finding of text. Last of my rambling questions, while I know that the crunchy books are no use in 4th ed (Noooo! But I love my horribly overpowered Grimoire spells!), how hard is it to convert things over? More for things like NPCs, where I don't care what the point cost is, just translating abilities over. Thanks all!
