Sounds like you had a great time!

I'm still really really keen on GMing Unhallowed Metropolis at some point, but I've never GMd before and I think it needs someone who is really knowledgable about game mechanics etc.
Maybe at some point when you are over at mine you could be a guinea pig for me and I could run just a 15 minute scene devoid of the theatrics, props and atmosphere that I want to add into it - just a very short bare bones session so that I can learn and practice combat and suchlike?

My problem is that I have loads of ideas for plot and character and scaring the hell out of the players, but I really don't want to have to be looking through the book every five minutes and backtracking on myself.

If you haven't seen it before, Unhallowed Metropolis is a post-apocalyptic zombie steampunk Neo-victorian game of supernatural horror and gasmasks.
