@PTR_K Well, of course every group and individual has their own rules preferences. I kinda like GURPS, it fits my mental model quite well.
But my conception of "stonepunk" wouldn't mean ice age/neolithic in a pure/historical form, as I'm not that fond of Quest for Fire/Clan of the Cave Bear storylines. Mixing in a bit of spirit-based religion or even Sword & Sorcery would be possible, but my conception of "stonepunk" would go quite beyond that. Meso-america mixed with early dynastic egypt and mesopotamia, with some anachronistic tech based on "weird rocks".

The tenth generation i3s are surprisingly capable, similar performance to the old staple i7-4790k with much lower power requirements. And I like running graphic cards that don't need their own power cable.

It's enough for Skyrim, Witcher etc.,

Homebrew stonepunk setting with GURPS

Duskvol with HERO (don't care much for FitD, but the setting seemed cool)

AD&D 2nd Edition game in a post-cataclysmic Forgotten Realms, where magic is only done by specialty priests and thus cults are getting increasingly important. Basically a mixture between regular FR, those wu xia movies with lots of hidden sects and the cults of RuneQuest.

Speaking of RuneQuest, now that BRP/ORC is out, I want to use it for something. Torn between a Qin dynasty not-quite-Wu Xia game and MERP-style Middle Earth.
