if that is your desire then it is - and frankly a forum that doesnt have room for new ideas or concepts isnt much of a forum - especially considering how wide open Twilight 2000 is (keep in mind that most of the world was never touched by the canon modules as to details so there are literally endless possibilities)
and if my opinion about two modules (one that after reading most of the posts here is shared by a lot of current and former members including the DC working group) and that the canon as they were written led to the game turning a corner, that in my opinion, it shouldnt have makes you leave the forum, then it does
that is not my desire, nor was it my intention
But seeing the US Army turned into just another group of marauders, especially when their country needs them desperately and their are foreign troops on US soil just makes no sense (and that doesnt matter if they are following MilGov or CivGov) - nor does it make sense once you read the Return to Europe modules and see what appears to be a recovering Europe while the US is destroyed - oh and it really doesnt matter if the uber drought lasts only two years versus the implied ten in the modules
the 90 percent of the remaining population who would be dead wouldnt care much
and as I have said - it also makes most of the rest of the modules make no sense since Reset, the nuclear scientists, and the oil from that off shore rig in Texas all are dead plot ends when the rest of the country dies
however without those two modules all the rest of them work as a cohesive canon and campaign of survival and recovery and rebuilding
with them anyone in the US basically is playing Aftermath after the spring of 2001
and while Aftermath is a great game its not Twilight 2000
again my opinion
oh and keep in mind Targan - canon is what you make of it and how it rolls - in my campaign the Return to Warsaw module would never have been run - not because we didnt want to go back to Europe but because during the original module one of our guys shot the Baron and killed him - so that part of the canon would have never occured if we had gone back
same for White Eagle - we gave the Madonna to Stark in Krakow since we did Black Madonna first due to the roads we took escaping - so there goes the Priest and his forces gathered around the Madonna
thus by our very actions we played fast and loose with the canon just by playing the game
