UniSystem Books in Play

I did not mean to mislead anyone by the titling some of these posts, they were just germane to the subject matter and meant to draw attention. For instance, "Important Books in UniSystem" refers specifically to the post about different Books (or Tomes) players can find in my UniSystem games, and sometimes other games (usually Chill and/or Dark Conspiracy). However, some people may be looking for the actual books in play - that is, the books I am using in my game from which these posts are derived:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Roleplaying Game Core
Angel Roleplaying Game Core
Monster Smackdown
The Magic Box
Slayer's Handbook
Military Monster Squad Initiative Handbook
Lawyers, Gods, & Money
Encyclopedia Demonica
Tea & Crossbows
Investigators' Casebook
Welcome to Sunnydale
Ghosts of Albion
Army of Darkness
WitchCraft

You will note that I am working from the Cinematic UniSystem, not the basic UniSystem presented in WitchCraft. However, I do use some terms and mechanics from WitchCraft, just not the overall system. After all, the Buffyverse is a completely different gaming world which operates very differently.

I've included links to most, only one of which is free (WitchCraft). I receive a tiny commission, should you purchase anything, but it goes toward buying more RPG books (and it isn't enough to afford anything outright). The point is not so much to earn a commission but direct you toward the books I use in my UniSystem game. I've included links to Buffy and Angel many times, so you'll have to read on for those. You can use the "Buffy" or "Angel" tags at the bottom of this page.

You don't need all of these books to play, though I definitely suggest having at least the Buffy RPG Core, Angel Roleplaying Game Core, and Ghosts of Albion

It's going to take me some time to read these, so I may be away from the Angel RPG for just a bit.
