The Chaotic state of the UCAS! The United Canadian and American States is in turmoil. In the past year, the great dragon Dunkelzahn won a special presidential election - and was assassinated on the night of his triumph. Savage riots broke out and have barely subsided: inexplicable magical phenomena have triggered a vicious anti-Awakened backlash; and corporate backstabbing and political intrigue are reaching new lows as everyone who can makes a play for the big time. And nowhere in the UCAS are the aftershocks as fierce as in three of its greatest cities: Boston, Detroit and Chicago. Target: UCAS contains a wealth of information for players and gamemasters: adventure frameworks that allow gamemasters to jump right into these explosive cities, rules for ghoul player characters and free bug spirits, and more. Target: UCAS is intended for gamemasters and players of all experience levels.

An oldie but goodie,
By "orporg5" (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Target: UCAS (Shadowrun RPG) (Paperback)
Target: UCAS is probably one the last Shadowrun 2nd edition books to come out and possibly the first of the Target series. This book focuses on about 4 cities in the United Canadian and American States. Although most of what's in it has been updated in Shadows of North America it still contains valuable and detailed information on Boston, Detroit, the Washington DC sprawl, and Chicago. Perhaps most importantly it tells the (rather short) tale of how Ares (mostly) took out the bug spirits. It also gives rules for using Strain 3 bacteria, those crazy little critters that eat magical items and people. It's a pretty fun read in of itself with plenty of decker shadowtalk sprinkled throughout. You're probably going to want it if you want to do runs in either Boston or Detroit. It seems to be pretty easy to find (but not nearly as prevalent as the Street Samurai Catalog) and it's usually not too expensive. I believe some of the sellers here have very reasonably priced copies for sale.

Get "Bug City" and the "Missing Blood: Universal Brotherhood" books and read them as a trilogy. These guys are great!!!
