[UA] What You Want

[Neil Laughlin]

What a great list -- the authors are asking us what we want! Now that I've
got that obligatory plug out of the way...

> 	"Mature Audiences" - The Pornomancer sourcebook.
> 	"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" - The Dipsomancer sourcebook.
> 	"Flesh for Fantasy" - The Epideromancer sourcebook.

I'm going to second a sentiment I've heard other people express. I'm much 
more interested in organizations as subject matter than in entire books
devoted to one school of sorcery. I'd buy "Mature Audiences" if it 
dealt principally with the Cult of the Naked Goddess in a fashion similar
to how Greg and John's "Wildest Dreams" builds up _Over the Edge's_ tulpas.
Chapters containing story ideas, sample characters, tangential cabals, places
of power, and so forth thrill me -- if there's a lot and they work tightly 
together. 64 pages of prose about how dipsomancers dress (and here's some
new spells in the margins) doesn't. 

> 	"Godwalker" - A UA novel

I wouldn't mind this, but in general I haven't found RPG novels to add much
to the setting. 

> 	One (or more) of a series of small, cheap books on individual cities.

I've always found RPG supplements discussing real cities to be very dry. Again,
I'd be much more interested in small, cheap books on organizations or
setting elements ("The Mystic Hermaphrodite Book," for instance).

> 	A book with a long, integrated campaign that has serious repercussions for
>  the UnAverse.

If UA attracts a lot of relatively inexperienced buyers who seem to
want something like this, it'd be cool. For my part, I'd use it
for ideas but probably not run it flat-out.

> 	"One Shots 2" - More unconnected short adventures.  ("One Shots" is in
> development.)
> 	"Grand Secrets" - A bunch of red herring adventures and material.

Short adventures, particularly flexible ones that can be interwoven into
an existing campaign, are very good.
