    TWILIGHT 2000 Twilight 2000 is a Role playing game set in a fictional future, one where World war 3 began in the late 1990's and eventually slipped into a nuclear exchange changing society as we know it. The players assume the roles of survivors trying to live through the aftermath of the war. Twilight 2000 was published in the mid 1980's by Game Designers Workshop who unfortunately closed their doors in the early 1990's. The copyright was purchased by Tantalus, Inc but there are no stated plans to revive the game. Despite the lack of any new material from a publisher the game continues to expand through the players on websites such as this. This is my contribution to the game, this site will be in a constant state of change, I plan to add material as I get it finished. This will include new equipment, optional rules, alternate game backgrounds and other material as it accumulates, currently I am working on source material for a World war 2 background, but I also have been completing some optional rules of my own as well as modern equipment.

Pickup not available. Yahoo News Video. Small, low and easy to hide, fairly nimble, and with a powerful gun, the Hetzer made an excellent tank destroyer. The side and rear armor was of a lower quality alloy steel and only 20mm thick. The driver vision port is a tempting target on the front, not only is it a weak spot, but behind that are the driver, gunner, and commander! This proved popular with crews, though to reload the gun a crewmember needed to expose himself to enemy fire. The roof was only made of an 8 mm 0. Pricing policy About our prices. Deploying single Hetzers, especially without infantry support, was almost certain to end in failure. Moreover, it was produced in Czechoslovakia, relatively spared at the time by the Allied bombings, although that was to change. After the war the Hetzer remained in service in Czechoslovakia and in Switzerland as the G, with Swiss engine and a commander's cupola until the s. This would have allowed them to move the gun nearer to the centre of the vehicle, and generally improved the design, but problems with the sights and the gun control were never overcome and the Jagdpanzer 38 t STARR never got beyond the prototype stage.

  • Military Units Which Supported Or Opposed the 100Th Infantry Division in the European Theater of Operations, 1944–45
    Military Units Which Supported or Opposed the 100th Infantry Division in the European Theater of Operations, 1944–45 Keith E. Bonn Copyright 2000 by Keith E. Bonn. All rights reserved. Published by Aegis Consulting Group, PO Box 629, Bedford, PA 15522. Units Which Supported the 100th Infantry Division Although the 100th, like all US infantry divisions in WWII, was a combined arms organization with its own infantry, light and medium artillery, combat engineers, and mechanized cavalry troop, it was supported by a variety of separate Corps and Army assets in the execution of most of its missions. At various times, the 100th was supported by a vast array of corps and Army artillery units, and the list is too long to reproduce here. Suffice it to say that all artillery fires, including at times 155mm rifles and 8-inch howitzers from corps artillery and even 8-inch rifles and 240mm howitzers from Seventh Army artillery, were all controlled by the 100th’s DIVARTY, and their fires integrated with the DIVARTY fire support plans. None of these supporting artillery units were ever attached to the 100th, but only designated to fulfill varying reinforcing or direct support roles. This section provides information about the major combat outfits that were actually attached to the 100th, in part or entirely, throughout almost all of its com- bat in the ETO. By contributing unique battlefield capabilities and providing mobility or firepower beyond that available from integral Division resources, each of them played a vital role in the Division’s victories. The 100th Infantry Division was assigned to the Seventh Army throughout the Division’s combat operations.

  • The Bears Pit There's Also a More Or Less Working Flamethrower Added, Which Is Still Work in Progress
    Subject: Alpha_Item_Mod_for_WF6.06 Part 4 Posted by smeagol on Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:23:49 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message No better way to start Thread 4 than with Version 44. Thread 1 can be found here. Thread 2 here. Thread 3 here. Small FAQ: What is the Alpha_ Item_Mod_for_WF6.06? It's basically just what the title suggests, an add-on for the WF Mod for 1.13 that Jax and myself made. It's certainly not necessary in order to play the WF Mod, but it will add a bit of fun. I already made some hundreds of items, added lots of merges, reworked starting gear and enemy item choices, etc... The Mod in it's basic configuration needs an .exe for the 100AP system, as all items have their usage costs adjusted to this. So, if you experience any problems with too high reload costs or similiar things, make sure you use a game .exe that uses the 100AP system. The newest version of the Alpha Item Mod is V44 V44. The Skydrive site has some issues with certain web browsers. I can't reach the download site with Seamonkey, wheras Firefox just works fine. So, if you get a yellow page with lots of code, try another browser, that should fix it... Downloads for either the Item Mod or the updated maps can both be found on my Skydrive. I upload updates on a more or less regular basis, so make sure to check here, whether there's something new to download. The maps might require re-starting a game, but the item mod in general doesn't require a restart when you update from one version to a newer one.
