GDW rolled out Twilight 2000 – their military roleplaying game – with a big splash in Dragon Magazine, issue 93 (January 1985).
They bought ad space on three consecutive right-facing pages, starting on page 35. It was dramatic.
The ad blitz was bold, compelling, and certainly captured the imagination of teenage Wayne!

I remember getting this, and I bought the game as soon as it came to my local hobby store. Memories!

I know that art style very well from old “Men’s Adventure” books.

TW2K was an easy sell for a military brat like me, but I remember this ad campaign and being locked in completely. Totally captured my imagination.
