GURPSGEN:
>The Generic Universal RolePlaying System, or GURPS, is a tabletop role-playing game system designed to allow for play in any game setting. It was created by Steve Jackson Games and first published in 1986 at a time when most such systems were story- or genre-specific.
Setting hacks Edition!
How have you modified existing GURPS settings or mixed elements of multiple settings together?

We're using the robot stats from Reign of Steel in a setting where a similar robot revolt apocalypse occurred but with the twist that a transhumanist country managed to hold off obliterate their rouge machines and then exiled themselves into space. After some decades had passed these posthumans then decided to send down soldiers to save what remains of biological humanity.
The below is a rough sketch for what the mind upload exile soldiers will "wear" as they militantly end their self imposed diaspora.
Machina Angel (TL 11(^) ) [960]

Eberron DND setting as seen by semi cinematic, magic as powers, no gunpowder high Renaissance game
I still don't quite know how to emulate the omnipresent magic items, but the few times I ran it peeps had fun.
After the end meets Monster hunters, but the second one's more for theme than material. Most everything supernatural came from the spirit world, an event destroyed the spirit world in it's entirety, and the feedback pretty much wrecked the world. Now humans and non-humans are equally rare and near extinction!

B-be still my heart.
Heh, I'd turn into a flustered, stuttering wreck
Question:
In my ultra-tech setting, I've ruled that force screens (which are rare, and never conformal---i.e. always "shell"-like") trigger the detonation of shaped-charge or other explosive warheads.
In the case of EFPs, the armor divisor goes away (as even 20cm or so is enough for the EFP to disperse irl), and HE warheads with a significant linked-damage component also triggers here.
(For balance, force screens are rare, and do not give as much flat DR as given in Ultra-Tech.)
How should I rule the resulting penetrating debris/dispersed molten metal EFP/projectile?
Should I just say that force screens have 1-3 levels of Hardened against EFP warheads?
What are your thoughts?
(I just thought the idea of someone in a heavy battlesuit having their force screen detonate a shaped-charge warhead some two yards away and subsequently shrugging of a rain of molten metal and jet of projectile debris would be hella cool)
(Immediately after typing this, I got the idea of military tech adapting to this by developing two-stage shaped-charge warheads. Would be kind of neat. Dual-staged EFP shell. The sound of it pounding through a force screen, then immediately afterwards going off on the vehicle/battlesuit itself would probably be both cool and characteristic.)
What's that?
MEME general?
gurps is and old pile of convoluted trash. The only reason it even continues to exist is to power it's own meme of being "good".
nigga have you forgotten to breathe lately?
