Always love to talk about:
#Hyperborea and other #WeirdFantasy like #Conan2d20
Post Apocalyptic gaming a la #GammaWorld #MutantYearZero #MutantFuture even #MCC and currently itching for #Twilight2000
Neato OSR/NSR stuff like #Cairn #Runecairn #IntoTheOdd

@LeviKornelsen mostly 5e #DnD and its variants (LevelUp, Tales of the Valiant, etc).
I would absolutely love to see some #Twilight2000 and #FlamesOfFreeom chatter

I like the idea of West Marches #TTRPG hexcrawl campaigns, but I want to increase the amount of mystery and exploration.
Thus, a #Twilight2000 campaign where the same topo map has three "layers" -- the layer you reach depends on direction of travel and layer of origin. Each layer will have affinities... standard post apoc, horror, or psychic/alien conspiracy.
The nice quirk is that if you take the same path, you always end up in the same reality. If you take a shortcut, you might not.
I feel like there should be a #Twilight2000 remix set in 2024 Southern and Eastern Ukraine.
57) And GDW continued with its attempts to reinvent itself, creating an inhouse games system that would be the forestay of all its games for the next few years. Twilight 2000 had been released in 1984 but it was with the release of the 2nd edition that I bought it.
A much slicker version of the game which sparked a whole range of new games using this new GDW system.
Just read the section in Urban Operations that adds more rules for combat inside buildings.
It seems pretty much perfectly written for pulling Rainbow 6 Siege style bullshit in a TTRPG.
Flicking through Urban Operations.
Detail looks pretty good from a skim through.
Production value is up to Free League's usual top tier standard.
Now to sleeve these cards.
New stuff day is my favourite time of year. The last of the stuff I ordered with my birthday cash arrived.
Sweet, just got confirmation that my copy of the Urban operations expansion for Twilight 2000 is on its way.
Starting the write up for Day 1 of my second solo Twilight 2000 game.
I have already drawn the encounter for Shift 1 of Day 2.
The crew are about to run into the marauders that killed the PC in game 1.
This is going to be fun.
Progress so far on my solo Twilight 2000 game. Yellow markers are for the first game, orange are for the second (current) game.
Triangles are for encounters, stars are travel markers (start, stop, destination etc)
Really liking how this is filling out in to a persistent map for future use already.
Just finished the first encounter for my solo Twilight 200 game.
Having a tank, even one with no ammo, and a sniper armed with an M82A1 really shifts the balance in combat. The PCs won and the two NPCs that survived ran away.
I'll do another travel section and encounter tomorrow, taking me up to half a day in game time, then then write it up for the blog.
After the first turn of my current solo Twilight 2000 game. No casualties yet, but a pissed off tank driver driving at some ambushers and a sniper moving round to flank them.
One thing I like about this is I can walk away and contemplate my moves for a bit between turns.
Every time I read or see something for the new edition of #Twilight2000 the more tempted I am. Would have to sell some stuff to afford it, but it looks so slick and good. Would be nice to go with my nearly complete collection of 1st edition T2K books. Plus I want to run it as well. #ttrpg
Blog entry covering characters, gear, and organisation for my next Twilight 2000 solo game.

Just pulled the first encounter for my second Twilight 2000 solo game.
An ambush by 4 soldiers, one with an SVD and 3 with AK74s.
The PCs didn't spot them so the enemies get the top spot in initiative.
This is going to be an interesting fight. But 4v4 with 2 vehicles in play it may take me a while to resolve.
Ok, so that solo Twilight: 2000 game I was doing.
The character lasted half a day, two encounters, and three bullets. Combat in this game is fucking BRUTAL.
I'll do a proper write up for it over the next couple of days and post it on my blog. And then I'll stat up a group of characters for the next attempt.
Right, time to actually start that solo Twilight 2000 game I've been meaning to do.
First up character creation. I think I'll just make one for now, so I can then test the rules easily. I can then add more later organically as they travel.
Some art commissioned for a #Twilight2000 #T2K4e adjacent sourcebook Iām writing.
Reorganized my #TTRPG shelves again.If I cannot regularly play RPGs, I guess I can organize and plan. (I'd rather be playing.)
