History & Background (Dossier)

BITS was incorporated as a company ("BITS UK Limited") when GURPS Traveller was released to put the legal niceties in place to allow sales to the USA and beyond. However, as an organization it is still run for the love of the game, and not for the money (fortunately!).

Meta-history & Background

Although BITS was founded in the UK, it has a small number of European and North American members.
