Default New Twilight 2000 Map of Poland

Over on Facebook the map for Poland for the new version of Twilight 2000 appeared and in my opinion it looks good. It was also mentioned that a Kickstarter will be launched early next year.

The one that practices censorship.

Apparently so.

Oh you mean the Facebook group that kicked me and you out of it because we were conservatives? Yeah I remember that Facebook group. FYI the game will now be a 2020 release - originally was supposed to be late summer early fall of this year

And a kickstarter from an established company? Seems like they're a bit unwilling to shoulder much of the financial risk to me...

thats whats worrying me - i.e. what is the threshhold to kick the new version off - and are we looking at possibly a single release of a rulebook and new version of Escape from Kalisz or are they putting together multiple modules that follow one after the other to build interest in the game?

That was one thing that V2.2 really didnt have - they only really released two scenarios - Bangkok and the rehash of Krakow. And based on Krakow you had to think eventually many of the V1 modules would have been rewrites as well - but that never happened.

And it took until the East Africa Kenya Sourcebook and Korea to get more new material outside of some Challenge articles

Lets hope its a fully realized world with material ready to go and not one where we get the rulebook and maybe one module and then its who knows how long till another one - especially if the kickstarter fails.

And its seems they really arent promoting it right - i.e. why wasnt the map published here and on our facebook group and other places all at once in a coordinated effort? Why wasnt it released on drivethrurpg.com as a teaser for what is to come? Instead from what I can see it was pushed out on one facebook group only.

If its going to be funded by a kickstarter you need a very wide release of that news to get as much funding as possible so that its not just one man working on it - no matter how good a writer you are, one man alone cant really support a whole new edition.
