Secret Armies ("Tajne Armady") is nice idea, but I'm afraid that it 
associates more to Secret Services that to Secret Cabals, but I will
think about it. Underground Armies is a problem, because the word
"underground" without any qualification in czech almost always means
"cultural undeground". Threfore, Underground Armies would for most
people mean "Armies of the punk rockers and avant-garde art performers"
(that would make really nice, but completely different game 8-) ). And
"Occult Underground Armies" is too long. 

thanks for help,
