Bump for I too am interested

If you're doing a more human sided campaign then Esoterrorists might be up your alley
Colton Reed
Isn't Esoterrorists full investigative? Does it even have a combat system?
Jacob Lewis
GURPS and FATE are VERY different games for very different kinds of people. Figure out which one of the basic systems you like more.
Take a quick look at fate accelerated:

Then a quick look at GURPS Lite:

GURPS Lite is not representative of the GURPS experience.
Asher Bell
In what ways is it not?
David King
OP here, I'm aware they're very different systems, I'm trying to figure out which of the two games fit the tone and style of the Hellboy comics better, hopefully with some insight from people who've played either.
Anthony Roberts
With FATE you'll also likley be able to take a lot of Ready Made urban/modern fantasy stuff from the Dresden Files RPG.
Easton Parker
It strips out practically everything in favor of just the basic dice mechanic. Like if you made a simple Risus-like dice pool game and called it "Shadowrun Lite."
Landon Bell
Delta Green
Kevin Cooper
Atomic Robo
Nathan Bell
FATE
GURPS
Savage Worlds
Mutants and Masterminds
Monster of the Week
nWoD
All acceptable choices.
Anthony Ortiz
Kind of related, but I have this limited edition Hellboy GURPS sourcebook. Would it be worth anything? It's in my shed somewhere from when I moved.
Parker Morris
There's an Atomic Robo RPG?
Jeremiah Butler
GUMSHOE would work if you want to focus on investigation
Jose Parker
Gurps or Savage Worlds would be great for B.P.R.D. for how lethal their job is.
Matthew Bennett
Well, the official Hellboy RPG is already a GURPS hack, so might as well go with that.
Aiden Parker
It has a very barebones combat system
Juan Scott
Yeah, it's bretty gud (in general and for Hellboy too). Was one of the first Fate spinoffs to use "modes" IIRC.
Nathan Jenkins
You're thinking of GURPS Ultra Lite, not Lite.
