Also see Merc for classic mercenary background. "Bandits calling themselves freedom fighters have kidnapped an oil company engineer. They want four million in ransom, and the guy's relatives are poor as churchmice. The goons figure the engineer is so valuable the oil company will pay to get him back, but they're wrong on two counts. 1990 ... Loren K. Wiseman ... 120 pages ... GDW 2005 ... ISBN 1558780726 Print Run = 10,073 Units Cadillacs and Dinosaurs "Although the first signs of the cataclysm appeared in the mid-1980s, it was not until a decade later that the extent of the geological and ecological disaster became apparent. By the early 21st century, humankind had begun its retreat from an increasingly hostile surface to the safety of vast subterranean shelters. By AD 2020, the churning, spitting earth came to a boil. Billions died, and entire species were consumed. The few surviving humans huddled in their scattered iron and steel tombs and waited. Four hundred and fifty years after it had sealed itself off, humanity returned to the daylight and was greeted by a radically altered world — a world that logically should not exist. A world populated by creatures from all of earth's past geologic eras. The Xenozoic era is the brainchild of artist/writer Mark Schultz, and the extraordinary adventures of the surviving humans have been published in comic form by both Kitchen Sink Press and Epic Comics. Now the detailed and colorful background of the Xenozoic era combines with the critically acclaimed Twilight: 2000 game system to provide you with a roleplaying extravaganza! • A complete game—character generation, combat, tasks, equipment, dinosaurs, adventures, and much more! • Compatible with Twilight: 2000 and all its supplements and sourcebooks! • A treasure-trove of background information for comic fans! • Lavishly illustrated by Mark Schultz!"

It presents players and referees with a totally new and different background against which to adventure: Thailand. Bangkok describes the geography, climate, peoples, and culture of Thailand, giving maps of the major cities, a rundown on the three main political factions, and complete organizational details of the various armies. From the opium warlords of the Golden Triangle to the 'sea gypsies' of the Gulf of Thailand, from the primitive hill tribes of the northeast to the sophisticated mercantile/criminal syndicates of Bangkok itself, each region of the country is fully described. Each section also includes a short folio-type adventure set in that part of the country.

Survivalist organizations were sen as outdated and unnecessary, and their memberships dwindled. Many of the remaining members were labeled crazy and were ridiculed.

To keep the neighboring warlord at bay, they have kidnapped five children from the warlord's camp in Kwidzyn and are holding them hostage in a medieval castle on the coast.

The British call them the Spratlys and marked them on charts only because they were a hazard to navigation. They were never of much use to anyone until oil was discovered underneath them. In AD 2000, five nations claim the islands, five nations have assigned them names, five nations have sent survey parties and military units to secure their claims, five nations have made arrangements with oil companies for their exploitation. The team is hired by one oil giant to spy out what the competition is up to. Easy as pie, right? In the middle of their mission, however, they make a discovery that is infinitely more important to their long-term survival... they discover what their patron is up to..." Design: Loren K. Wiseman 1992 ... 32 pages ... GDW 2016 ... ISBN 1558781358 Print Run = 5,000 Units Check Wayne's Books Inventory East Europe Sourcebook "Information is vital to any military campaign. Without it, armies blindly wander without real objectives, blundering into the enemy by chance, with no opportunity for advance planning or preparation. The East Europe Sourcebook for Twilight: 2000 gives you the information you need to know about the central theater of the Twilight War. Eastern Europe was, without a doubt, the "center stage" of the Twilight War. It was in Eastern Europe that the armies of every major belligerent met; it was in Eastern Europe that the war lasted the longest; and it was in Eastern Europe where the devastation of war was greatest. The East Europe Sourcebook provides a chapter on each of the nations of the region, giving a short summary of the nation's history, and its military forces plotted on an individual situation map. Nations covered include Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, the Czech and Slovak Republics, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, and the splintered remains of the former nation of Yugoslavia. More than 30 military vehicles are detailed, illustrated, and described in game terms, including the major vehicles used by the nations of the region, all fully updated to Twilight: 2000, version 2.2. The vehicle pages concentrate on the non-Russian members of the Warsaw Pact, covering Romanian, Yugoslavian, Czech, Hungarian, and Polish military vehicles ranging from the Hungarian FUG scout car to the Romanian TR-85 main battle tank. If that weren't enough, the East Europe Sourcebook also includes a detailed full-color map of Eastern Europe, and two short adventures set in the region."

ISBN 1558781633 Print Run = 4,100 Units Check Wayne's Books Inventory Rendezvous in Krakow More-or-less a reprint of the original module "Free City of Krakow" with 2nd edition rule changes. The adventure is more streamlined, with a plot, unlike its sandbox-style predecessor. The factions are bit more focused: KGB, DIA, and the crime boss Guz. His HQ is mapped, from adapted floorplans from the 2e rulebook, and he's clearly set as the Big Bad Guy here. Rendezvous in Krakow is labeled "The Vistula Epic, Volume 1," presumably with "Pirates" and "Warsaw" intended to follow on. GDW closed its doors before this took place. -Wayne "Rendezvous in Krakow is the first of three linked adventures forming The Vistula Epic for Twilight: 2000 2nd edition. Krakow has been spared the worst of the war's devastation, and has declared itself a free city. The war is banished, and individuals are free to come and go... so long as they leave the war behind. Background material includes street maps with points of interest, from Wavel Castle to the "Wojo" munitions plant. Many non-player characters are described in detail as well as the Krakow ORMO and the marauder bands of the surrounding countryside. The city's economy, culture, and atmosphere combine to make the Free City of Krakow a rich adventure environment. Set against this backdrop is the adventure, which thrusts the player characters into the midst of intrigue and treachery as they pursue the secret of Operation Reset, and in the process gain the attention of several intelligence agencies and Krakow's most interesting (and dangerous) citizens." 1995 ... 48 pages ... GDW 2018 ... ISBN 1558781900 Print Run = 4,450 Units Check Wayne's Books Inventory Death on the Vistula "Death on the Vistula is the second installment in the Vistula Epic campaign. The mighty Vistula River sets the stage for a journey from Krakow to the ruins of Warsaw aboard the armed river tug Wisla Krolowa. But the Vistula has seen better days. The river has been left unattended for years as the war raged around and across it, and now is filled with debris and silted channels. The book provides a series of semi-independent adventures set along the banks of the river, each one a convenient one or two-session episode, from delivering towns from the grip of tyrannical marauders to choosing sides between warring bandit kings to simply eluding the powerful pirate fleet that dogs the course of the Wisla Krolowa. All of the important forces along the river, such as the bandit and marauder units and, of course, the vicious river pirates, who virtually rule the river, are detailed in terms of numbers, equipment, and motivation. Death on the Vistula gives a rich, detailed look at the entire course of the upper Vistula and its environs, a small but fascinating part of the war-ravaged world of Twilight: 2000." A 2nd edition re-do of Pirates of the Vistula. It never saw print. Ad is from the back of Rendezvous in Krakow -Wayne Armor XXI: Mounted Combat in the 21st Century (#2050) Wayne's Note: This product was on GDW's drawing boards at the time of its closure. I confirmed by email (2004) with Frank Chadwick that no copies of Armor 21 exist, and that no significant progress had been made in its production. The photo comes from an ad in the back of Rendezvous in Krakow. What a shame! (snif!) "The future ain't what it used to be... Armor 21 takes the Twilight: 2000 game system into the unforgiving battlefields of the next century. These are not the battlefields of a post-holocaust world; these are the battlefields of 2020-2030 that the armies of the world are planning for today. Based on cutting-edge research and technology projections, Armor 21 places you on a battlefield of brilliant munitions, active armor, real-time intelligence, intelligent mines, and digitally-enhanced infantry straight out of science fiction. Victory on the battlefields of 2025 will require warfighters able to operate sophisticated machinery as an extension of themselves, while at the same time possessing the physical and moral courage necessary to live in water-filled foxholes and to take on the enemy with nothing more sophisticated than cold steel. Become that warfighter with Armor 21." The Twilight: 2000 game in all forms is owned by Far Future Enterprises. Copyright 1977 - 1998 Far Future Enterprises.
