2.X?

[M-Type]

Hello all. Got my hands on an Amazon gift card for Easter, and went to check out what there is to see over there (for T2k stuff at least). They have the T2k 2.0 rule book in my 'price-range', but what's the difference between 2.0 and 2.2? Note: They don't have the 2.2 rule book anywhere on the site.

For all of those in my campaign, I won't be changing up the rules on you guys (80% sure), but I'm looking at this for the long-run, since I know the 2.X is in more high regard.

Thanks for the help!

The big change in 2.2 was an update to the core task resolution mechanic to use GDW's d20 (yes, years before D&D 3rd) house system instead of the previous d10-based engine.

ETA: For some reason, the PDF of the 2.2 rulebook is not available for stand-alone purchase on DriveThruRPG, though it is available as part of the 2.0/2.2 bundle.

Think I'd be all set if I bought the 2.0 rule book and the GM Screen? I can drop $5 on the Screen if it'll help.

Character generation and initiative was also tweaked in 2.2. The screen doesn't cover those two issues.
You can look at the screen as a sort of 2.1 - includes some changes, but not all. Twilight Encounters includes pretty much the same 2.1 adjustments.

Of the two, my personal opinion is that 2.2 is the better of the two, so would be worth the effort to track down.

Either way, any of the versions can be a great deal of fun.

Gotcha. I got Twilight Encounters and 1ed, so I'll be content for a while. I will look into getting 2.2.
