East Africa Sourcebook (T2000 v2)
 |
From the deserts of Somalia to the Serengeti of northern Tanzania¸ the waters of the Indian Ocean to the jungles of the Congo¸ the East African/Kenya Sourcebook¸ the first new work for Twilight 2000 since 1995¸ shines a light on an area hinted at in previous works but never before detailed¸ where what is left of civilization in Africa struggles against the Somali Islamists¸ the PARA¸ the LRA and desperate pirates whose only mission is to take what they can from what still stands.
East Africa Sourcebook contains a detailed order of battle for the American¸ French and Rwandan forces in the area as well as for their foes. A timeline is provided that shows how WWIII came to Africa¸ including the nuclear strikes that devastated much of the refinery production in Africa¸ leaving the refinery in Mombasa as the only hope for the Americans to provide the fuel that keeps CENTCOM supplied in their continuing fight with the Soviets in Iran. The continuing struggle of the French to build a new Empire from the ruins of Africa come alive in the Sourcebook¸ detailing their triumphs and missteps¸ including how they assisted the LRA to power in Uganda.
For those looking for new challenges and new adventures¸ the East African/Kenya Sourcebook provides them in spades offering everything from fighting a military campaign against the PARA and the Somalis¸ to convoy escort duty against pirates¸ to deep patrols trying to destroy terrorist bases or to find useable aircraft and supplies to keep AFRICOM going now that no more will be forthcoming from the United States. For those who wish to be mercenaries¸ either in the employ of others or building their own "kingdoms" in the ruins of Africa¸ there are opportunities a plenty.
