This will be my GURPS Space site.

Fixed some typos and added new maps on 2021/01/19.

I have the manual. I will be using the basic Traveller style maps from Fractal Terrains 3, and Cosmographer add-on for Campaign Cartographer 3+. UPP instead of UWP for planetary profiles.

This site will have planet maps made with Fractal Terrains 3 from Profantasy.com. A few character drawings using Character Artist 3. But don’t expect me to draw any by hand. I’m not an artist.

Mapped with CC3

Menus installed, all articles and graphics loaded.

It would be great if namecheap got their act together. Me changing the background color via the default style sheet shouldn’t be a problem for me. Just installed, and uploading maps, etc.

Maps on this site will be 2000 pixels wide.

1) From reading the GURPS Traveller pdf I bought, I will likely just go with the standard Traveller mapping methods. GURPS Space doesn’t have Sector and sub-sector maps. The info I found, and asking on the Steve Jackson Games forums, is there isn’t a sector map method. A Cartesian mapping method is used instead.

2) UPPs have not been done yet.

3) Navigation menus have been added.

4) There will be 9 sectors per area. More will be added later. Two Galaxy arms and a path connecting them.

5) Some planets are on the GURPS Cartesian map, most aren’t. Links are provided to the planet maps for those planets on the cartesian map.

6) No details on the maps.

7) I have added a cartesian style map similar to the ones in the GURPS Star Atlas books.

8) I am a retiree, so updates here are as I have the time to do them.

This is a map based on similar maps in the GURPS Star Atlas series. According to posts on the forums at sjgames,com, most people feel this type of map is all they need.

Same planet names as elsewhere on this site. The links on this page go to each planet, they are in GURPS Traveller style UPP.

The planets on this map are not in the same locations as the Sector and Sub-Sector maps.
