...with a setting even Kenneth Hite laughed at, so you know that's something. Anybody have experience with NBA? How did it play for you?

Lots. Is is a one off? Or a campaign? Published adeventure or one of your own creation? The key NBA mechanic is Heat, which enables rising tension whenever the players are tempted to murder-hobo. Be careful to consider and make a clear decision to run it in Thriller, Mirror, or Dust mode, depending what your players want/need. And then STICK to the chosen mode.

But the way my chosen setting for Ken Hite to laugh at is late period A-Team, with Robert Wagner’s character (who we first see in tinted shades on a blacked out jet, with a beautiful assistant and two Doberman Pinchers) as the handler who turns out to be the Vampire...

Probably be a campaign, one of my own broken creation.

I have run it once need a bit of prep work but if your players are invested in an investigation game rather than a hack and slash dnd type of game it's good
