Roleplayer #30

Before there was a Pyramid, even before there was a GURPS, there was a Roleplayer. It was originally produced as promotion for the Generic Universal RolePlaying System, GURPS.

Issue #30 was the final issue of Roleplayer, another step in the evolution of Steve Jackson Games. Next would be Pyramid, a larger, glossier magazine that covered the game industry as a whole, not just a GURPS house organ. But Roleplayer went out with a bang in its final issue, with the first-ever mass combat rules for GURPS, a long-awaited addition to the rules. The issue also had a tale from GURPS Fantasy II, designer's notes from GURPS Arabian Nights, and more – along with the usual look at coming attractions, errata, and rules Q&A.
