Unknown Armies kinda felt like yesterday's news when it came out. For me, it wasn't really doing anything new.

Despite my initial scoffery at reading this, I can actually understand it. Still,
Unknown Armies manages to breathe new life into the game on a daily basis as though it were still brand new. If you haven't checked out the website (which I'm sure you probably have), please do.
As for me, I'm still trying to figure out a way to
run Unknown Armies. There's a lot there!
