Unknown Armies: Paris, TX vs. The 333rd Reich

This setting is super cool. Has good add ons, a fun story going on inside it, and some creepy new monsters to deal with. Id recomend it for anyone after something very unique and weird. There was an error in the first version of the pdf but the creator was quick to respond to notices on it and fixed it too.

Creepy, gross, and over all really cool. A class that will burn itself to the ground fast but it will be a wild ride along the way.

I wanna like this one, it has a very good core idea to it and I like the idea to it greatly. It just doesn't work that well. The charging method is ridiculously slow that puts them leagues behind other adepts, and their spells are far more costly then the should be given how hard it is for them to charge. Having almost all their spells require being related to their exam or studying at the moment leaves them so limited in use. Its a cool flavor that someone could try to use as a challenge to play, but over all I can't see myself or any player I know using it.

I was really afraid when I got this that it would be more joking instead of thought out. Oh boy this class is amazing. Cool idea to it, really useful and powerful spells, with just the right dash of humor to it.

The Charioteer Archetype

This is a really short, and well done Avatar type. It makes sense, as really useful powers, and has some fun applications for gameplay. Totally worth the price for it.

Neat little add on. Nothing ground breaking but still nice enough too throw into any game if you need help with players going crazy. For two bucks totally worth it.

I was a little concerned at first that this would be too on the meta side and play itself for cheap laughts. I was wrong. This adept type is amazing. How they work and all the little quirks to each of their spells fits perfectly into the Uknown Armies setting. You can tell the writer must have had their own passion for it cause everything has the weird feel of core developed UA content. Amazing add on, 10/10, get this one.

This ones got some ups and some downs. All in all a good addition but it has some problems. So first off all the fluff bits added in are solid. It has interesting ideas for how the magical nut jobs of this world survived in the UK. Avatars added into the system are really solid. Despite being only two they are both well thought out and work well for either GM or player. The rituals they add in are fantastic and had me both giggle and cringe at how weird/evil/creative they were. Locations all work well. Opposing groups is one place it really shines too, adding in flare and nods to other books.

Now the make or break for this book is the adepts, cause they are a mixed bag. Of the five new adepts added two of them I would personally call useless, two of them are amazing, and one of them is cool but wicked situational. First adept is the Alienacarnemology, gains powers of animals by consuming their meat. They are fantastic. Flat out cool idea that has strong spells and uses. Second is the Caravanacracy, and these guys are just useless. They're discount car mages from book one and I cant see anyone trying to play one aside from making their charging harder, their spells less effective, and their taboo more ridiculous to make a mage I could never suggest. Third mage added is another fantastic one, the Chronomancy. Thats right a time mage, dont worry not nearly as broken as it sounds. If anything they're maybe a little more powerful then the camera mages from book one. Cool ideas that work well. Fourth class Urbanusexploratiology, and they hit the situational but cool. They are hard to charge and need to be in a game that works for them, but they are a very interesting adept with some different, maybe too situational spells. Fifth and final is the Vetitumtabulasmancy....and I want these to make sense but they dont in a modern setting. Their spells are cool forcing checks on people or social/emtional manipulation, but their charging just doesn't work. Hell the book even says they have a painfully finite sources to charge from and have to jump though a near pointless hoop to charge after that. The spells are cool but this class only really works if you set your game in the 80s or something.

On a side note the section for the final added adept has an oddly poor editing. For some reason all the text is bold for this section, and it breaks the format of the other classes by not listing the type of charge per spell (small mistake but odd to see when everyone else has this in their blocks) that goes on for five pages. The editor really dropped the ball there to miss that big of an error.

All in all this is a good but not perfect addition. Some bits are a little too hard to use, but the world additions, the rituals, artifacts, avatars, and half the adepts feel right at home. For ten bucks this is more then worth it just to get the fun of Unknown Armies in the UK setting.

Ever want to be the worlds strongest magical hobo? Then say no more for this ones got you covered. Planetomancy hits an idea that makes a lot of sense for Unknown Armies, being a drifter who gains their strange from the journey and not the destination. Though amp that example up to eleven cause the destination ruins the magical high these adepts are after. All in all this is a pretty cool read that I think can fit with how estranged the other mages are. I think the only hard part to note is that these adepts have probably one of the hardest taboos to play with, requiring who ever plays them to get creative in getting around it. Still, all in all this adept is one I really look forward to playing with more.

Unknown Armies always delivers weird and interesting ideas for you to play with. Justin Miland makes a fantastic addition to the core system with this new adept type. Its weird, its goofy, and its fun. I hope to see him make a lot of addtion content for UA cause he hit the mark with this one. Offering a very different style of adept to play who needs a little more set up or player agency to really shine. If you want to really flex your creativity to set up a character around the mysticism of battleship and sorry, completely recomend.
