[UA] UnderWorld as UA Campaign Inspiration

Hidey-ho.

I recently purchased UnderWorld. 

Oy.

I'm not going to talk about the wretched editing, the lackluster
or actively-crappy art, the essentially class & race chargen, or
even the "let's fit a small short story into *each* frickin'
chapter as intro text."

However, in thinking about some of the discussions of the
culture of the OU on this list, the idea of physically
segregating the OU from the mundane world has its advantages.
There are a number of location ideas worth swiping. I thought
that the "mana zone" concept (in terms of Radiance) was an
interesting idea. I did like the tight UW community aspect; in
some ways, it's a trifle more palatable to me.

Has anyone else seen this game? What do you all think? (BTW,
UAList denizen Mearls is mentioned in a sort of instigative sort
of way.)
