For the PC, this game looks interesting.

For tabletop RPG'ing, have any of you looked at Darwin's World?

Some of it seems to be very close to Fallout. The 2nd Edition Hardcover especially has a great map of North America

In fact, the map is available on that site.

I'm interested in the concept.

I'm all for using any system that doesn't have a fuckload of rules and reference tables.

I wouldn't mind. Why not adjust Gamma World to Fallout standard? GW is also post apoc also.

I'd only be interested in resuming Uts' abandoned Fallout D6 game that he attempted to run here ages ago.

I say we use F.U.D.G.E. and adapt any setting information from another "book".
