"To simply declare published materials as rubbish and demand all others agree with you is a recipe for conflict."
Leg - show me when I ever demanded that all others agree with me.
I have stated that the opinion I have about those two modules is shared by many on this forum including the late great Chico. And that in my opinion they are rubbish and were campaign killers.
That is hardly a demand.
And the only conflict I see being generated here is by you and a few other canon defenders who act like any deviation from canon is like spitting on the Bible.
And some of the holes in the canon are huge - there are multiple divisions in Korea - but we now almost nothing about that whole conflict except for how it affected the US and Russian divisions themselves. Africa is mentioned barely in the RDF module and a very little bit in Going Home and the Med Cruise - and thats it.
Frankly I could write ten Korean modules, and as long as I stay on the peninsula they can be just as much canon as anything Frank Frey ever wrote.
For those of us like Rainbow 6 and Chico and Paul who are doing a lot of work to expand the world of Twilight 2000 I say keep going and dont let comments from the canon defenders discourage you.
Who knows, if we issue enough fan canon then maybe someone will get the hint that the game still has a big enough following that it deserves to be picked up again as Twilight 2000. If not then the fan canon can bring that world more to life for those who are left.
And since some of those who wrote the modules for Twilight 2000 are here on this forum if they feel differently let them contact me - frankly I would love to talk to them. It would be an honor to talk to them in fact and tell them how much I have enjoyed their game over the years.
