GURPS Supers is the Generic Universal Role Playing System's superhero expansion. Two editions were published in the 1980s as supplements for GURPS 3rd Edition; a completely new edition was much more recently published, actually a completely new book designed as a supplement for GURPS 4th Edition rules and linked to the recent GURPS Powers rules expansion.The first edition was criticized because it arranged superpowers in sets called "Power Groups" which players felt limited their character creation choices. This was fixed in the second edition, so that powers could be bought individually. (Power Groups were retained as an optional system.) The 21st century edition handles powers and abilities completely differently again, in line with the significant changes in the core GURPS rules.Another criticism of the original books was that you couldn't emulate the most powerful heroes from the comics (such as Superman or Green Lantern) because either they would be too expensive to adapt (costing thousands of character points) or their powers were too expansive and there were no exact equivalents for them (though these were problems faced by most superhero RPGs of the time.) On the other hand, GURPS Supers could handle the less absurd superheroes, and it produced many interesting original characters of its own. With the 4th Edition version, even cosmic-level heroes can now be reproduced, though most of the work for that was done in GURPS Powers.Another problem the books had was the artwork; it was crude and uncolored, except on the covers. Again, the latest version has mostly better art, though still uncolored.There were several Sourcebooks put out for the game, the most famous being an adaptation of the Wild Cards superhero novels. The 1980s editions had their own original setting, detailed in Gurps IST (International Super Teams) which featured an Alternate Universe where the United Nations effectively rules the world and uses superhero teams to keep the peace. The IST world was recently incorporated into the GURPS Infinite Worlds meta-setting. All of these can now be purchased in PDF form from Steve Jackson Games' website. | |

How Do I Shot Web? | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_21fd09a7 | comment |
How Do I Shot Web?: Many powers have an associated skill attached with them (along with a default rating for untrained power use). Particularly with new powers, the user may have a low chance of using them effectively, which can result in various mishaps (and if the power in question has a high rating and the "Full Power Only" limitation, this can be very dangerous for all around). | |

Stripperific | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_430e15e1 | comment |
Stripperific: One optional rule (meant for more four-color cinematic play, mostly for female supers, but males can take advantage of it, too) is a "Bulletproof Nudity" rule, where the character's defense increases in direct proportion with how much skin they're showing (with full nudity providing a +10 to damage resistance). The offered explanation is that foes are too Distracted by the Sexy to aim well (thus, it's recommended that the rule only be in place for characters with at least one level of Appearance). The canon character Flamin' Jane (who wears a Leotard of Power with a flame-shaped Cleavage Window) benefits from it when in effect. | |

Sleepwalking: One of the side effects of "Uncontrollable" is that a character might use their powers in their sleep. One explicit issue discussed is the problem of sleep-teleportation. | |

Power Incontinence | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_571a3c67 | comment |
Power Incontinence: The "Uncontrollable" power limitation. A milder version is the "Full Power Only" limitation - while a power with levels ordinarily can be dialed back as the user feels necessary, if someone with "Full Power Only" uses it, they are unable to do anything less than full power. "Always On" is the stronger version - while someone with "Uncontrollable" might be able to avoid using their power at a given time, "Always On" is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. This can be anywhere from inconvenient (like Body of Steel or Body of Stone) to downright dangerous (like Body of Fire). | |

United Nations Is a Superpower | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_8c4b72dd | comment |
United Nations Is a Superpower: In IST, the UN is strong enough to outlaw national military superteams and make it stick. In the world's first incarnation, this was imposed by threat of force on powers up to and including the Soviet Union. Later, this was retconned into being more of a mix of technological bribes and threats. It's also stated that several nations (The US, China, the Soviet Union, and many other major or regional powers) simply turned their military teams into something considered legal, such as having them (officially) report to a different, non-military branch of the government, or making them government subsidised "private" superteams, while still having them set up to act as military superteams when needed. The UN does secretly have a cache of strategic nuclear weapons, despite having outlawed them. | |

Super Registration Act | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_ce22183 | comment |
Super Registration Act: In IST, the US has the Department of Metahuman Information. It's technically voluntary, but they want private super teams to sign up (and those who really won't get with the program can face severe harassment), as well as giving the superteam the legal authority to make arrests. However, what's not spelled out is that the DMI are also a method of dodging the UN's rule against national military superteams, since if war breaks out, they'll have easy access to a large number of registered heroes who're already working with the government. | |

Expy: The templates in GURPS Supers are all to some extent designed to let players play these. For example, the Archetype is most obviously for playing Superman, but also includes "Amphibian" and "Super-Swimming" options if you'd rather play Aquaman. The Brick includes a "Man of Steel" option that's basically Colossus. Most blatantly of all, the Man Plus comes with a choice of "Superalloy Chainmail" or "Superalloy Medium Shield." | |

Sci-Fi Ghetto | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_e90aeea2 | comment |
Sci Fi Ghetto: Discussed. In IST. It's mentioned that sci-fi has become a massively dominant genre due to the public's love of supers, and has stopped being seen as a ghetto. invoked | |

Cast From Stamina | |
| GURPS Supers (Tabletop Game) / int_f020c621 | comment |
Cast from Stamina: GURPS in general allows a character to activate Extra Effort - by spending stamina and making a Will roll (with increasing penalties based on how much stamina is spent), extra dice proportional to stamina spent can be added to a power's effect. A power can also have Cost Fatigue limitation (either as a whole or for certain extra power levels) to allow for this effect without requiring a roll. | |

Fantastic Legal Weirdness: IST has several sidebars about such things as court telepaths, whether metahumans with healing powers need a medical degree, and other legal issues that come up in a world with powers. | |
