Re: A Spot of Location Inspiration
Apparently the complex served as the setting for the horror movie Haunted Hotel and of course like every large, semi-abandoned building complex that makes noises unfamiliar to people used to hearing a bustling city, it's claimed that the place really is haunted. Many of the same photos but some addi...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy
The Car: Road to Revenge So I just watched this "unofficial sequel" to the horror movie The Car and for a B-movie it was actually worth the time It reminded me in some ways of the first Robocop movie - action, cheesy, gory, but still fun. And it had a number of references to the first movi...

Re: April 2022 Rumblings
I think most of us who are still in the game, so to speak, are running with either 1st, 2nd or a mix of the two but more than that, I now feel that any 4th edition will have to be something really great before I throw any more money at it (I supported the original 4th Ed. crowd funding effort). I do...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy
This is definitely worth a watch. Not directly Dark Conspiracy but it's the sort of story I'd expect to see penned by Markus or Linden for an issue of The Black Seal. it's a short movie, less than 30 minutes, basically a survey ship goes north looking for undersea deposits of natural gas and discove...

Re: April 2022 Rumblings
Thanks for sharing (as you know, I can't be arsed with most social media, so I miss out on a few of these things)
I'm hoping for the best, I'd love to see some adventures, technology and world regions (so I don't have to write them out myself haha!)

Re: Bits and Bobs:
There is one aspect of having less disposable income - I examine far more products for useful gaming material than I used to because I only have the funds to buy one or two products compared to when I used to buy three or four at a time (and sometimes more). When I had the money, there also seemed t...

Re: Bits and Bobs:
At the time I bought the majority of those books, I was fortunate enough to have disposable income that I could spend on hobbies. I'm glad I got them when I did because these days, there seems to be less material being published that can be used as fodder for Dark Conspiracy (or similar games) and I...

Re: Bits and Bobs:
I have a reasonably large library of game books that I use for inspiration. I use various GURPS books such as the Black Ops book you mentioned but also Blood Types, War Against the Chtorr, the Bio-Tech, Low-Tech & Ultra-Tech books, Covert Ops, Reign Of Steel and others that I can't remember at t...

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020
The biggest reasons folks are unhappy with it: - 1. FL said they would build upon 2nd/2.2 editions. They did not, they made it Year Zero rules and from the look of the pre-alpha documentation, they never had any plan to make it compatible with earlier editions (I have access to them plus the alpha a...

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020
Frankly, I am not impressed with Free League's reboot of Twilight: 2000. It strikes me as being Mutant Year Zero without the mutants and has too few connections to the factors that made T2k so memorable for many people. It looks pretty, but from what I've seen of it, there's no longevity in it (as i...

Re: AMARGOSA UPDATE December 2020
On a related note... I will be very happy when Free League finally finishes their reboot of Twilight: 2000. Then Amargosa Press will have completed their collaboration with FL and be free to pursue other things, for example, the 4th edition of Dark Conspiracy. Still likely to take another three or f...

Re: The Dark Times issue 5?
Ah ha! Thanks for the info. I don't foresee any great changes but there's at least one spelling error I didn't catch the first time around and after re-reading the section on the Frontier Police I found that I hadn't actually completed it, so I have to try and remember what I was thinking in regard ...

The Dark Times issue 5?
I've just found my article that was meant as Part 3 of my Short Guide To Australia series (after a discussion on the Discord server) and found it needs a tiny bit of updating (because I didn't quite finish the section on the Frontier Police - as mentioned in the "notes to the editor", the ...
