FYI just to give an idea on how well the two fanzines were recevied when they went up on drivethrurpg.com

and also keep in mind that by late June I had posted the second volume here for free and Grimace's volume 1 had been on Paul's site for years - so putting them there brought a much wider audience for both of them

Found an article that shrike6 and Paul were talking about back in 2018 for Panama that was originally posted on Chris Callahan’s Twilight 2000 page which was dedicated to Twilight 2000 South America and dealt specifically with US and other forces in Panama, Colombia and Central America.

Orrin Ladd reposted this on his page and tried to contact Chris but was unable to contact him. If anyone knows how to get a hold of Chris please get a hold of me as I would love to use this for the fanzine.

Can use it as is for V1 or edit it for the V2.2 canon which saw the 173rd temporarily deployed to Central America before it went to Kenya.

Can give accreditation to Chris and post as is but would much rather get his official blessing.

This was the link Shrike6 posted - https://web.archive.org/web/20021206...uthamerica.htm

thread here where Shrike6 and Paul were discussing it - https://forum.juhlin.com/showthread.php?t=5740

What kind of deadline do you have on the issues? I'm busy but might be able to find some time to pull something together depending on when.

I see the "Modern History of Chemical Weapons" section sticks to the commonly taught (false) history of Germany using chemical weapons first in World War I, when France had been using gas grenades since August 1914 (and Germany had at least two failed chemical attack attempts before April 1915, an October 1914 dianisidine chlorosulfate attack where the bursting charges incinerated the chemical and a January 1915 attack with xylyl bromide where the chemical froze so quickly it didn't have any effect).

ETA: the description of Jan Husster in "The Treasure Mine" says he joined the militia in 1197 instead of 1997.

Vol. 4 now available at Drivethrurpg.com. Got my copy a few minutes ago. And yes, it's very well done.

Here is the link to the 4th edition - and correction on the cover - the thumbnail shows the cover differently than the actual download does - https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product...o-4?src=newest
