Same here. Got the boxed set still, plus several scenario books and loads of counters etc. It was a great setting...  8)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Man, that was such a neat RP setting (as has been remarked); I look forward to your take on it!  :)

Very cool. I'm curious as to where you will take this. I assume you will incorporate rules for miniatures?

The group I gamed with back in the day tended to mostly use the Mercs expansion though. I would have loved to get my hands on the 'weird' expansion as well, but I never found it in the (then) very scarce scattering of gaming stores in the Netherlands. (I do remember reading that one of the scenarios was called 'You're not from around here, are you?', which for some reason has stuck with me for almost 20 years...)

Will you cover the expansions as well? B)

Oh, and Mahan; enjoy your lollipop. I'd ask for an orange and raspberry flavoured one if I were you! lol

I should have the boxed rules and the computer (5 1/4" floppy) game in the garage.

The former was never played because the rep of "instant death" of parties (the "Close and Kill" D&D mind set was common in my area) in others' minds.  The latter had issues - I could not get the computer to let me interact with the POI in the opening scenario.

That said, it was fun to design the PCs.  I really wanted to play my "USAF" team soooo bad.

Gracias,

yeah I loved that game. Only got to play it a few times as a teen. Most of the RPGers I run into now these days are only into Meta-gameing (pretty much, Get XP, find way to break system).
Never mind actualy trying to role-play lol.
Are there any modern supplements to TW2000 out there?

Thank you all for the replies. I am back from vacation and have been doing a lot of thinking. I will start a new tread to answer all your questions as good as I can. But I can tell you that it will be a objective-/ mission driven tabletop with rpg thinking in the background.

Unfortunatly some dastardly member suggested x-com:apocalypse as a guess, so I cant get that out of my head. Taking time and energy from Twilight2000. And of course all the stuff I ordered for my fallout setting that arrived while I was on vacation.
