The Cold War Turns Hot

Yesterday my gamer friends and I dipped our toes into the world of Twilight:2000.

The United States and its western allies went to war with the Soviet Union in the late 90s. It is now 2000 and Operation Reset is launched to rid Poland of the Soviets. It fails disastrously.

So a few of us, the remains of a platoon, are in our Humvee trying to make our way to the German border to meetup with our remaining forces and regroup. But Ivan lurks with his explosive devices at the side of the road, there are friendly stragglers here and there, and then there are the locals whose allegiance is not always clear.

We ended the session just south of Ostrów Wielkopolski with some injured comrades in back and a need to find some water.

A really fun hex crawl. It's a Free League game and uses the same basic rules as Alien, which I loved. I am really looking forward to the next session.
