Some factions consider the Ascension War a metaphor for the fight for reality. Others consider the War to be internal. Some factions consider it a full on total war and the New World Order is one of them. Propaganda, manipulation, strategic violence, and sometimes a chaingun are all appropriate focuses in the procedures required to bring about Safety and Security for the Masses. When your enemies are this bad, what methods could possibly go too far? Adam and Terry walk through the Convention book that gave us the Spectre limousine, mindscaping, and Room 101, how their tools work, and how to use them in your chronicle.

Here I figured The Prisoner was a sequel to Secret Agent Man/Danger Man, but dig the idea that 6 was 2 either there, or in a similar location.
Looking forward to the VE’s and eventual Guide to the Technocracy, but mostly It X revised.
Unrelated, in the first edition VA sourcebook, they say something to the effect of being a new tradition. Given every other group seems to be clamoring for “first post”, that pleased me, and was a let down in the next when they changed course.
