@arossp I ran it on a local RPG meetup for 2 first time UA players that totally "got it." So it went really well.
Maria In Three Parts is an introductory module #UA3RPG. It has a lot going for it:
1. A concise explanation of the main rules.
2a.The right amount of "lore.”
2b. Opportunities to engage with the most important mechanics in the game.
I ran an introductory session of #UnknownArmies 3e for two players a few days ago. (Maria in Three Parts)
While explaining Adepts and Charges I told the player playing the Cinemancer:
“Adam Sandler's character in Uncut Gems; well that' s an Adept working up charges.”
"Really?" He asked.
I thought about it for a second and answered:
"Yes; absolutely.
A charismatic New York City jeweler always on the lookout for the next big score makes a series of high-stakes bets that could lead to the windfall of a lifetime. Howard must perform a precarious high-wire act, balancing business, family, and encroaching adversaries on all sides in his relentless pursuit of the ultimate win.
Holy shit, John Tynes predicted the modern GOP in 1998!
I HATE it when UNKNOWN ARMIES predicts the future!

In today’s #UA3RPG #UnknownArmies game we figured out that the worst hangover you could get from clear liquors would be a cocktail of Zima and creme de cacao.

In Lochlan’s #UA3RPG #UnknownArmies game, I play Wyatt, a young and insecure ex-con photographer. Today’s sesh had an art show opening.
(10 minutes in)
WYATT: I don’t think it’s fair to call me a ‘tortured artist,’ no, not at all.
(7 minutes and 1.75 Zimas later)
WYATT: (quotes Shakespeare, stabs self in hand with fork)
In today’s UNKNOWN ARMIES game, we’re basically dealing with someone who went into a Room of Renunciation and came out as a sort of off-brand noir detective, and we are going to hire him to track down his missing previous self.
GET IN THE CAR, BABY! WE’RE “ANGEL HEART”ING!
