Slap me for being a dumbarse! <Doh!>
I didn't even think of putting it out as a Dark Times article.
Mighty fine suggestion... wish I had thought of it!

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020

Well I suppose that does mean that there's likely to a whole lot less legal messiness if I post the material I wrote for Clockwork, to the web. I'm definitely going to be using what I wrote in my own DarkCon games and I like to believe that it would be useful for other GMs so the thought of posting ...

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020

Was pleasantly surprised to find that email waiting for me this morning and I'm quite interested in seeing Amargosa's ideas for a relaunched DarkCon. Now I'm just waiting to see if Amargosa contacts those of us who were on the Clockwork project because it does sound a little as though they intend to...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

Anyone else seen Salvage ? I hadn't heard of it until recently and finally got to view it today. The blurb runs "When a container washes ashore the residents of a sleepy cul-de-sac are plunged into violence, terror and paranoia. Ring fenced by the military a single mother must overcome all the ...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

As for the AUG, yes indeed.
I remember it's appearance in Die Hard (the first movie) pretty much for the reasons you mentioned.

Re: Two new weapons books on DriveThruRPG

I can appreciate that. I have a tendency to restrict gear that the PCs can get a hold of, based on their Social Class and the vast majority of the most modern or high tech equipment is found in the hands of the Corporations... who don't really like to share their toys. And in regards to the GDW syst...

Re: QAnon

This article is quite interesting, a report on how one man in the US found out about QAnon from a site devoted to gambling on US politics. Shows another perspective on how people became so absorbed with the whole QAnon business. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2021/01/betting-against-qa...

I wasn't intending to revisit this particular page but the link I originally posted is long dead and while searching for an archived copy of it, I found a related story on the same English Russia website.

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020

I can appreciate that they have been busy with everything else and I would happily accept a statement along the lines of "we haven't had time/resources to deal with it yet" and their lack of contact with some of us indicates they have been busy with other things But when they continue to c...

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020

First let me say "Thanks Lee" for taking the time and trouble to follow this up :D Secondly, as someone who was working on the Clockwork edition... well, call me cynical but... I find it interesting that they continue to state that they are talking to the writers of the Clockwork edition. ...

Two new weapons books on DriveThruRPG

DriveThruRPG has two new weapons books for Twilight: 2000 2nd edition/V2.2.
The two books cover many items that are very much suitable for Merc: 2000 and Dark Conspiracy as the author has included items from the 2000-2020 time period.

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

Yes that's the one and yes, for a bunch of private corporation intelligence agents they do seem a bit "superhero" at times. In the farmyard scene they did get some help from a "mysterious stranger". It definitely suffers from some of the usual bad tropes and I think I can see why...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

Just finished the last episode in the 2012, eight-part, TV series Hunted . I had never even heard of it back when it was released and even though I thought it the premise was somewhat interesting when it was advertised through Google Play, I still didn't bother with it. But it was recently discounte...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

Ah, interesting! I am aware of Possession but I don't think I've ever seen it, I had a bit of a crush on Isabel Adjani during the 1980s but I would not have been aware of all the movies she was in at the time. I think if I had seen it, I'd hopefully remember it, simply because I had a "thing&qu...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

I've seen The Endless but not the other two yet. I quite liked it and was pleased to find out that Resolution formed a companion piece for The Endless.
Must get around to watching it one day and I'm equally interested in Spring.
