Not being a gamer, this has been a continual problem for me as the UF stories have become more and more heavily based on games. Absolutely no idea who or what they're talking about, or if I know the "who" (come characters are almost impossible to miss) I still don't have the background/context. I know there are lots of things in SA S11 stories I'm missing that no amount of internet research can fill in for me. My loss.
