Not that I don't appretiate it, but I know from experiance that saying 'I don't care for X' around here just leads to people trying to defend 'X' or offer alternatives that really aren't different (Marvel Super Heroes compared to 4C for example.) And the simple fact of the matter is I have more games than I have time to play now.  I would love to play a good supers game at somepoint, just not really in the market for one at the moment. I was asking if other people found that they really wanted to play a certain type of game and couldn't find the system for it, not because there were not systems out there for it but that none of the extant ones really satisfied what you had in mind.  As for the various comments: Charts for character creation are fine.  I don't have a problem with that.  Its charts once game play starts that I don't care for, and one chart is one too many generally speaking.  Having said that I have thought about playing around with 4C, maybe seeing if I can graft some optional roll resolution mechanic on to it.  Which I realize would radically alter it, but just as an avenue of consideration.The Character Creation process is not the only thing we didnt like about MnM.  So just having an easier way to deal with that part is not enough.  Plus I have players (my wife for example) that are constantly checking the math on their sheets in DnD and wouldnt trust a program to do something they didnt understand. The best thing about Unknown Armies is the various possible reactions to horror built into the system.  It has its faults but I would recommend it for a good horror mechanic.</blockquote>
