Twilight Cruise (T2K: Pirates of the Vistula)

Prepare for a riverine journey into the New Dark Ages...

This game is set in the world of Twilight 2000. The Third World War has been raging across Europe for the last five years. Three years ago, the mushroom clouds began to sprout up along skylines all across the globe. The world's great military-industrial complexes have ground to a screeching halt. High-tech weapons and equipment are wearing out and the once seemingly endless streams of spares and replacement parts have long ago dried up. No one can quite remember how or why this all began. Still, the armies of Europe, such as they are, continue to fight on.  Like most others in these bleak times, you fight to survive.

Your character will be part of an ad-hoc party that has been hired to provide an armed escort for a Polish river tug travelling from the free city of Krakow, down the Vistula river, to the ruins of Warsaw and beyond. It will be a perilous journey, rife with dangers, both natural and man-made. You are no longer under direct military higher command; you must chart your own course. The haunting words of the last transmission you received from HQ before being cut off deep behind enemy lines still echo in your sleep.

"Good luck, you're on your own."
