[UA] Kinda OT: Minder and elves (was: Blade Runner UA)

[Royal Minister of Stuff]

Well, if the crowd came to see Lions, I gotta throw in
some Lions.  Anyway, it was a baby step.  I'm not
expecting to get people who like putting 50 points of
armor on their head hooked on UA right away, but I
could sneak it into their fodder like arsenic or
crank.
I got them to play Castle Falkenstein that way and,
oh, wait, that was when they said I couldn't come back
for a couple years.

Anyway, as long as you leave the hobbits alone, I'm
happy to suffer through a few perfect, lovely, strong,
wise, kind, Elves, even using UA rules.  (Did I
mention it's the rules I most like about UA?  I did
mention that, didn't I?  Good, simple, playable rules,
that's what I like to see.)
