Rating:  Summary: Conspiracy all over the world Review: Conspiracy all over the world. Project Twilight pictures govt. agencies, first of all FBI, NSA and CIA, hunting vampires, werewolves and other supernatural beings. The organisations are described in detail. Who knows what? Whom is influenced by what? What factions do exist within the agencies? What are the goals of mortal hunters? How is their interaction? What equipment and tools do they use? Etc. However, I would suppose most hunters don't know that much about supernaturals as mentioned in the book, unless they had obvious personal contact. They know something is strange and they are the ones to discover it. But who sane human believes in vampires? "Maybe they are aliens or have some new bio-technical inventions" would be first explanations. If you always knew the true power of the world are not the governments but lies in hands behind the curtain, this book is what you want.Farooq.Abdullah@Assamites.de
Rating:  Summary: White Wolf's answer to Call of Cthulhu Review: I am a fairly new inductee into the World of Darkness. I really enjoy modern settings and the last one I took part in was Call of Cthulhu. This book brought back memories! If you are into the modern setting then this book should be considered a must have. It goes into pretty good detail about the FBI, CIA, and NSA as well as covers a bit of info about less secretive groups like loval law enforcement and the Centers for Disease Control. Just reading this book gave me lots and LOTS of ideas for a campaign. In the back there is also included a fairly well written scenario which will give you a feel for how government agents might be run. As I said before, it has a very cool Cthulhuesque quality. The only thing I feel is lacking is a Sanity roll... but then again, this ain't Cthulhu.
Rating:  Summary: Gearing up for Hunter: The Reckoning Review: Only one thing stands between this book and that fifth star: a good opening story. Otherwise the book reads like a conspiracy theorist's worst nightmare come true. All you need is this and the main rule book for Werewolf, Vampire, or Mage, and you're ready to make federal gov't sponsored hunters galore. Included are neat new backgrounds(rank, favors, backers, and equipment) along with some new numina. Pyrokinesis looks like it'll be a blast(excuse the pun). Many gov't agencies are detailed, and you'd be surprised by how little they know about the supernatural. So this game is more about discovery than just killing monsters, although there's plenty of room for that too. The World of Darkness's sixth standalone game Hunter:The Reckoning debuts this year, so this sourcebook may soon see a jump in demand. All wannabe gov't hunters out there(you know who you are)had better beat the rush and buy this book soon.
Rating:  Summary: A great White Wolf supplement for conspiracy theorists !!! Review: Project Twilight is great for anyone who wants to cross Vampire or Werewolf with government agencies. It gives in depth source for playing a para-intellegence agent, hunting the super natural. It contains information on the postion of the FBI, CDC, NSA & CIA within White Wolf's world of darkness... In my opinion, a must for serious RPG'ers
