Hey y'all! This one was bouncing around in my brain, and I went down a bit of a rabbit hole about RPGs, the 1980s, wargames, and GDW. So, here you go.

This video is:

  • An exploration of the company GDW (Game Designer's Workshop)
  • A look at 1980s politics and how it shaped the creation of Twilight 2000
  • An exploration of T2K
  • A fictional timeline of the world

So... there. Enjoy. No charge for this one, since nobody asked for it?

What did wargamers in the 80s think 2000 would be like?

GDW, Twilight 2000, and wargaming in the 1980s. A mixture of documentary, examination of a fictional world, and more. Main sources include: Designers & Dragons Friga Ligan website This is a video about the role-playing game (RPG) Twilight 2000. It's also a historical piece that explores the context of the 1980s and wargaming history. And it's also a video that explores the history of the company GDW or Game Designers Workshop.

That was pretty cool, if not a little disconcerting considering the current global situation. Only thing I ask is keep separate playlists for each game series for easy viewing.

Seriously good work, and I think it was nice to see content on other games, especially little-known ones like this...as long as it doesn't impede Infinity Content! I'm kidding, burnout is f-ing real and you deserve a break (of sorts, I guess?) when you feel you need one. (...not giving you permission you don't need, but rather, supporting you)
