Despite what appears to be a significant buyer base for something like Twilight: 2000, the harsh reality is that military RPGs (of any sort) are too much of a niche market. Post-apocalyptic games appear to sell better but putting the two genres together doesn't guarantee any success for a military themed RPG.
From what Tegyrius said, being a niche market these days comes with a significant commercial risk for anyone trying to cater to that market.


P.S. I said it before and I'll say it again - this community SHOULD produce a Twilight: 2000 ezine.
Yes there are some things to be sorted if you want to take it to a wider audience (such as how many issues per year, who will edit/produce the ezine, who has the software to produce it, who would host it for download purposes and so on) but this community certainly has enough material to produce issues for many years.
