Overall I like the feel of Harnmaster, but I find it rather clunky for character creation, a slow and rather laborious process that ultimately hinges around a few key rolls.


HarnMaster 3 provides two ways to generate characters: The default random method and the design ("GURPS-style") method.

Being ex-GURPS players, we use the latter points-based method. It's quick enough for us.

I imagine some of the HM3 character generation tools and spreadsheets available would speed things along too, but we don't use them.

On an aside ... we find HM3 combat quicker than GURPS. It also "feels better" to us.

We still use GURPS for modern games though.
