Through the Silver Gate is a new alt-campaign for Twilight 2000 cementing it as a flexible and practical modern task and combat resolution system.
It sits alongside Here Be Dragons and The Gloom as possible alt-campaigns for T2K on the premise of "what if it wasn't the Soviets...."
This means it's perfectly possible to play T2K and not be as concerned with the current situation in the world.

So, saddle up, grab your packs and get to the front line. The Orcs have all but taken Virginia and are moving North. Tales of Dragons flying over the Appalachians and a large silver sphere has materialised on the front lawn of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Let's take the fight to them!

This book contains:
  • A new set of extradimensional enemies (Orcs, Goblins, ....and Elves...kinda)
    A dual purpose campaign of resisting or invading the alien world
    A whole new magic system, based on Fantasy Magic
    A tie-in to future books about Dimensions
This is particularly inspired by a few sources including
  • The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
    Janissaries, by Jerry Pournelle
    Cannibal Halfling: The Forbidden Stairs
    A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
    The Long Stair, a very long thread on RPGnet.
You might see some other influences from the Del Toro movie Cronos, to TORG.
