GM: Stuart Stuple
Setting: Steampunk inspired GURPS 4th edition campaign.
Years: 2003-2005

The year is 1876 (not that anyone of note cares but the Centennial of the United States)

Starting area is in Europe. Specific area will, in part, be determined by party composition. Knowledge from cultures outside central Europe culture requires an unusual background (the colonies in the Americas are still fundamentally culturally European).

Characters are based on 125pts with -40pts of disadvantages and -5pts of quirks. Players can take up to an additional 25pts of “hidden disadvantages” (disadvantages, and in some situations, advantages, to be assigned by the GM). Please just enter this on your character sheet as “hidden disadvantages” with an associated point total.

At the end of the second night of play, all players will be awarded an additional 25points that can be spent on any advantage or skill.

Magic as per Castle Falkenstein and Voodoo are both allowed. Only the races in Castle Falkenstein and lycanthropes are allowed. Martial arts are allowed. The campaign is cinematic.

The SteamPunk/SteamTech books are a core component of the society and are the primary supplemental books for the campaign (pay particular attention to this when purchasing weapons and transportation). See page 121 of CF for most personal possessions.
