"Night of the Megacarp¸" a modern-day tale that comes straight from the direct-to-DVD section of your imagination. Can humanity survive nature's revenge? It comes with GURPS stats for the main threat and Action info¸ but the core is fine for civic-minded heroes of any system. "Operation Sun Dog" reopens a long-closed chapter of World War II.
