"..The high ground"

Mirage posted:

TFT is literally proto-GURPS. It started out as a pair of cheap mini-box wargames and slowly expanded into an actual RPG.

It's playable, and interesting as a part of RPG history, but both the game world and system are old-fashioned, super standard, and clunky. It's probably more useful to study than to play these days.

Yeah, I think you'd be better off with GURPS if you wanted to go with TFT but unfortunately the GURPS bundle was this summer.

And if you're looking for a version of GURPS out of the box that's good for d&d style fantasy, that would be DFRPG.
