Default Hangs head in shame

Sniff sniff...

I own in hard copy and PDF almost every module and version of Twilight 2000/2013 except one....

I have never seen or touched version 2.0.

When I saw they had it out in my local hobby store it was right next to version 2.2 so I skipped it and bought 2.2 instead and even have the PDF of it.

How different is the character generation from 1.0 and 2.2 and how different is the combat?

Just want to know if its worth forking over the money on Drivethru RPG for it to add to my collection.

I take it you mean v.1.0?

Just to generalize, 2.0 is skippable. 1.0 is not (too much of an idea factory).

Version 2 is similar to version 2.2 except that it uses 1D10 for skill checks instead of the 1D20 of version 2.2. Wayne's World of Books had a couple of used play copies for sale if you still want a copy. I have the boxed set with the battle map, cardboard counters and the booklet with a bunch of encounters for your use. Wayne's had another used copy like mine you'd probably like (because of the mat and Encounters booklet).

So is the character generation as Ver 1.0 or 2.2?

Closer to version 2.2 with the life path methods being nearly identical. The game ran entirely on the 1D10 though. It was a much simplified "percentile based" system.
