Corsair Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Okay, I haven't done any RPG since the early 1980s and that was very brief. I might be trying out a Gurps game, that is using 4th Edition. If I come across a 3rd Edition book cheap, should I bother to get it or is it totally out the window?

mikem91 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 background and flavor will be nice and useful. there's enough mechanical difference between 3rd and 4th that advantages, disadvantages, skills, equipment, and so forth won't be particularly useful without some translation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoman Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I had 3rd Edition GURPS as the very first RPG I ever played. I switched to 4th Edition when it came out and never looked back. I would stick with 4th and do what mikem91 said... use the 3rd ed books for flavor and inspriation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
