Have a look on us.undernet.org/bookz, it seems to have a fuckload.

The PDFs aren't really any cheaper than physical books though.

Sigh, it isn't clear that that is IRC unless you know it is IRC, IRC does not have a monopoly on shitty search functions. Or on ending names of websites with net.

IRC is obviously. Also PDFs aren't books that was the entire point of the thread keep up.

>If they're so outmoded, why does the OP need them?
The same reasons legacy systems are everywhere, pick one. Personally I'd have used any number of torrent services.

I feel like this thread is the equvilent of going to visit your grandparents and the lighting circit goes and they demand you to deal with it but when you get there it isn't circuit breaker switches it's just exposed fuse wires and whilst you are trying to work out the fuck is going on they treat like an idiot for not knowing they keep the fuse wire behind the hover in a old cigar tin in the cupboard under the stairs and then treat it like it should be common knowledge that they always keep the wire cutters in the tool box in the shed, only they aren't in there and when you have to ask them where they are they spit venom and dismiss you restating the same incorrect information and send you to look again and eventually you get your grandad to get off his arse he looks in the tool box then around the shed and then produces them from a completely different set of draws and says 'was that so hard', at that point they decry the ignorance of the youth of today and he take over doing the whole thing, complaining how he now have to 'risk breaking their neck' by standing on a woberly chair to reach the fuse box even though none of this was ever your fault but they blame you for having the sheer gaul to turn on the light in the first place. And you wonder why you even bother visiting them, and realise you only put up with it because you hope they'll be dead soon and you think you'll get a bigger cut of the inheritance if you bother to show your face once a year.

Killer Cat #2 and #3 seem available but only at the tail end of a massive download queue so I'll maybe add them later if it ever ends.

You fool! You utter, utter cretin of a man! Worm! Slug! Feeble-brained idiot!

Okay here's what to do.

1. Download an IRC client: https://hexchat.github.io/
2a. Set yourself a l77t nickname in the Nick Name box.
2b. Connect to Undernet through that client, you can find it in the list. Click it then click "Connect"
3. A little window will pop up. Click "Join this channel" then type #bookz in the box. Connect up.
4. In the chat box, type @find Anne Fine
5. Go to one of the chat windows that popped up and see if there is a book you want to download.
6. If there is, copy the text starting at the ! and ending at the file size, and paste that into the main #bookz channel.

That's it.

Is GURPS really any good though? I played a bit of Discworld GURPS back in the day and it didn't wow me. I feel like it'd be easier to design my own system than bother learning a new one, tbh...

Gurps does my nut in for the sheer blandness of it. If you want a system that does nothing to reinforce the individual thematic tone of a setting but gives you a clearly defined set of rules then this is the system for you.

In glorious Soviet regime all other RPG systems are banned as decadent bourgeois opiates of the masses. Praise the Generic Universal Role Playing System of the Soviet People!

>>6664 For what I want I believe so.

>>6665 if you or anyone else can recommend a role playing system then I'm all ears.

I'll tell you lot what it is and then a recommendation?

its a ww2 style game set in the 80's where Hitler won the war by dropping it on Washington first. it starts as a basic rescue mission and will have a bit of lore that I'm writing for padding out. then it turns into Hitler's mission to Mars and the summoning of Cthulhu by Hitler in exchange for a longer life as he's 85 by '84 but Hitler misunderstood the wrath of the elder gods and the heros end up stopping all of this.
That's the wide arc of this and the problem I had was finding something that fitted with "conventional" weapons pistols, rifles and what not, along with some basic DnD stuff like for example; Arcane strike = experimental rifle that's found.
a lot of this would be home brewed but the struggle is with finding something that works. the Grit mechanic in DnD wasn't appealing so I thought something basic would.
