Overview

This is a guide to the many abbreviations for game books and game lines that you may encounter on the RPG.net forums.

Numbers at the end of an abbreviation usually indicate the edition. UA2 or UA2E, for example, would mean 'Unknown armies second edition'.

A very useful resource for publication histories and brief descriptions of these games (and many others) is the online Encyclopedia of Role-Playing Games: Encyclopedia of Role-Playing Games
