TWILIGHT: 2000 is a complete role-playing system for survival in a
devastated post-holocaust world. Rules cover character generation,
living off the land, encounters, combat, skills and skill improvement,
medicine, vehicles, ammunition, trade and much more.
The combat
rules are a major breakthrough. One general combat resolution procedure
covers all types of combat: hand-to-hand, melee weapons, small arms fire
and fire against armored vehicles. Once the basic three-step combat
sequence is understood (Did you hit? Where did you hit? How hard did you
hit?), combat is quick and easy to resolve, but the wide range of
weapons values keeps the system rich in detail.
The background to
the war is covered in detail, and extensive material on the state of
the world is included to assist the referee. The beginning adventure is
actually a campaign and is the most complete adventure of its type to
appear in a role-playing game. It not only gets you playing quickly, it
provides many gaming sessions worth of encounters and adventures and
then easily blends into your own campaign.
