The Abode of McThag

I ran a, successful, Twilight: 2000 converted to GURPS campaign for several years. I lived in Ames, Iowa and we played at the Memorial Union...

Twilight: 2000 was written in a time where we thought the Soviet Union was at least as strong and capable as we were. It was first published...

There's a web page called Nukemap . You move ground zero where you want it, select a warhead or yield and see the rings of destruction! ...

I just noticed something. I'd made a "what if" version of myself from Twilight: 2000 on the assumption that I was in Florida. ...

I have broken tradition. I have equipped my T2K NPCs with a selection of hand grenades. Grenades are simply something that we always overloo...

I think I might have misspoke in the comments about the utility of the  Military Rank  advantage in a Poland T2K campaign. If a player had t...

I need to dig into my materials and figure out how MilGov and CivGov are handling gun control. That also means deciding if The Brady Act and...

I redid several of my favorite T2K characters in GURPS and I can't introduce them as my Mary Sues because they all have rank. The rankin...

Looking up stuff to figure out 40mm smoke grenades led me to look at smoke hand grenades. The US adopted the AN/M8 back in 1940. Basically t...

Didja know that the US doesn't manufacture or issue 40x46mmSR HE grenades anymore? While I was doing the research to make Guns Stats ver...

I had a T-72B1V in my T2K conversion. Why would the Venezuelan version of the T-72B1 be in Poland? Worse, I had it wrong. I meant the T-72BA...

Gun Stats assumes that both shaped charges are the same size! So you calculate them from the published penetration in millimeters, which com...

On the cover of  The Free City of Krakow  is this little tidbit: I think it says 105mm on the side there, and I don't think we ever made...

In GURPS: Twilight - 2000 you, too, can be a nuclear power! An M109A4 runs $567,000.  An M198 towed gun runs $530,000 and a 5-ton to drag it...

In 1981 we developed another nuke round for the 8" howitzer. It's something interesting. The W79 is a radiation enhanced warhead. N...

Did the 8" for the M110 tonight.  This gun comes up for both Twilight: 2000 and Funny New Guys. Same green bag/white bag deal as 155mm....

Since I've stranded a LAV-25 in Libya fighting the Afrika Korps, how would it fare against a SdKfz 232 8-Rad? First, armor. The LAV has,...

The LAV-25 is a perennial favorite of Twilight: 2000 players. How would the 25mm Bushmaster fare in the Libyan desert against the Panzer III...

De-genercized the bayonets in my GURPS: T2K conversion. Now you use an M7 bayonet instead of a knife bayonet. 

Something I consciously did with my TL project of making characters was avoiding making a soldier from each TL. Now I am making the NPC...
