Check out Ted Pro’s Cleidomancy. IT is the magick school that deals with getting into any sort of place…

Pretty sure. I wouldn’t allow it. The shooter get’s a better chance of doing better damage (up to the gun’s damage cap).
You can easily get firearm cherries – you have to make them up.
Instant Reload
Double Tap
Palm Glue
Shoot Thru You
Pistol Whip

The guy with the 15% gun skill has the 01 and 11 effects while the 0% gunskill has a five percent chance with the Hail Mary roll but cannot use cherries or the 01 crit.
The higher damage is just randomness from erratic firing.
C.
Uh no. This is exactly the sort of input I was looking for.
What you talked about is exactly the sort of thing I was talking about – Many smaller European countries versus the vast giant of the US. The cultural differences and histories should impact in the game.
I chose Europe because there is so much richness and the US is covered pretty well.
Thanks.
Give more. Contact me by email if you wish.
Cheers,

It’s subtler than Lightning Bolts and instead of fireballs people can be slashed by words that cut their faces or smacked by magic missile beer bottles.
Every school that has a Blast ability has their own unique effect or effects.
Most blasts do the same damage as hand-to-hand fighting.

It ranges but it is also a question of how long is a piece of string?
Adepts have wider, more versatile magick, while avatars have a very narrow set of unchanging magickal abilities.
C.
Nope. Passions are about survival mechanisms and social conditioning.
It’s your Obsession that needs to be tweaked for magick. Your Obsession does not need to be directly associated with sorcery allowing oblique interpretation.
Your Obsession skill needs to be your adept magick skill.

Actually, there is very little need to increase Stats. Sure 150 Body can give one 150 Wounds, but the system is flexible enough to slide by without hassle.
I’d go with a “special skill” that allows rerolls of a failed Stat check rather than actually increase the stat.
In terms of combat, the semi-stat Body skill is rolled as well and, if successful, the damage is added ontop of the original roll.
Or if tThe vampire with 150 Body has 99 Body and a Immunity 50% skill.
The vamp rolls Immunity everytime he is damaged. Deduct the Immunity roll from the damage taken.

I don’t see a problem. A mechanomancer earns charges by building his automata and then typically spends them back into the work in progress.
I cdon’t see a problem with a mechanomancer who earns charges and stocks them up, burning some for rituals.

Make it so when the body dies, the GM takes over control of the personality and hands play back when the demon has possessed another body.

Don’t forget that it was the same age as Cowboys and frontiersmen, the last age of Empires, and the Boxer Rebellion in China.

PM your email address and I’ll mail it to you.
Just a word of warning, I’m on holiday at the moment so getting it to you may be a little quirky.
Now submit for BoUA2!
Cheers,

Speaking of Hospitals and Kingdom, try and get a hold of Kingdom, a Danish television series about a Hosptial that is… unsettling in supernatural ways and just the nutjobs that work there.
I still haven’t seen the end of it. The DVD ends with two episodes to go. Bastards!
Cheers,
Chris.
It must be stressed that UA is not dead, just dormant.
Atlas Games will continue to print UA2 and rerelease the old UA books as PDFs.
Unfortunately sales are too low to continue even with the slow two books-per-year quota.
Don’t panic, things may change once the slump is out, but nothing new is going to be produced in the current schedule.
Keep posting here. Maybe it can all come together as a free UA netbook.
Cheers,
Chris.
