Publication history

McCubbin, and edited by Jeff Koke and Steve Jackson, and published by Steve Jackson Games as a 128-page softcover book.[1] The book features additional material by Spider Robinson, Steve Jackson, and Christian Wagner, and illustrations by Donna Barr, Guy Burcham, Dan Frazier, and Rick Harris with a cover by James Warhola.[1] The GURPS source book was published in 1992.
Reception
[edit]Rick Swan reviewed GURPS Callahan's Crosstime Saloon for Dragon magazine #190 (February 1993).[1] According to Swan, Callahan's Crosstime Saloon "works best as a framing device or an interlude in a conventional fantasy or science-fiction campaign, providing the players can tolerate a little whimsy. There are a fair number of new rules, among them guidelines for psi-blocking powers and intoxication effects, but not enough to discourage determined referees from adapting the book to a different game system."[1]
