GURPS Classic: Supers: School of Hard Knocks

ADD TO WISHLIST >

New Kids on the Block!

High school – a time for proms, football, and homework. But at Knox High, it's also time for some of the students to try out their new super abilities! They're powerful, confused, and misunderstood. They create destruction and chaos wherever they go. They're hunted by the authorities . . . and by dark powers.

In School of Hard Knocks, your GURPS Supers heroes must track down the city's brand new metahumans, discover what they want . . . find out who wants them . . . and decide how to deal with them!

School of Hard Knocks is a four-color adventure for supers of 500 points or greater. It is also a sourcebook for GURPS Supers, with characters, settings, story ideas, and a continuing campaign plot that can be used after the adventure is done.

School of Hard Knocks includes:

  • The Hell-Raisers – a team of maniacal villains led by a hell-spawned demon.
  • The Forty Thieves – a team of high school supers with problems that ordinary teens never dreamed of.
  • Maps for two super-battlegrounds: Knox High School and Ridgecrest Mall.
  • Adventure seeds – springboards to further adventure, providing the GM with ideas to keep players busy for months.
  • And much, much more . . .

School of Hard Knocks requires the GURPS Basic Set, Third Edition and GURPS Supers. Ideas are included for the GM who wishes to translate the adventure to another genre, such as espionage or outer space. The adventure can fit into an ongoing campaign – or it can be used as an introductory scenario for a brand new set of supers! Plenty of GM advice is also included, to smooth the pain if things go wrong. So buckle down, it's time to get an education . . . from the School of Hard Knocks!

(This is a digital reprint of a GURPS Third Edition product.)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
