Classic: Who's Who 2

Classic Who's Who 2 (1999) presents noteworthy historical figures in GURPS terms, for use in games. Each "era" has a "Who Might Have Been?" section of people who didn't exist and whose presence is used as alternate history hooks. It also presents alternate histories for each of the historical characters as well.
There was another book in this series: Classic: Who's Who 1
==Important Note==
Due to the changes of 4th edition the point totals given are no longer correct and some skill levels change as half points for a skill no longer exists. Also some skills now have prerequisites which are added to the conversions. Strength has changed though in terms of damage the original Classic value is given. This does make encumbrance much higher.
Talents for the most part didn't exist in Classic and so the conversions stick as much to the original attributes even if using a talent would reduce the point cost.
