Geez, I have not played this game since 1993, had no idea it was still around. Found a game, having some fun. Ok, now the hard part, somebody fill me in, you know, best servers, helpers (I found an old copy of twhelp laying around and have been using it), ect. ect.

I see by reading this site that there are major(?) tournements. Does that mean there are minors as well? Anybody still running TW2000?

Servers: Alien Base, Vulcan's Forge come to mind - search at http://thestardock.com:8808/

Helpers: SWATH or ATTAC

Scripting: TWX or REXX (for ZOC)

Public TWX scripts at http://www.grimytrader.com

Greetings there fellow space dude....No one that i know is tunning tw200o...Look at the rebang forums and try to get into a few draft style games and you will get right into the swing of it....Best helper would be a telnet client like zoc or qmodem or such and used in conjunction with TWX is my favorite.. Also many TW warriors out there use SWATH and Attac helper programs with native telnet built into them...Good luck there Space Cadet....

Helpers are SWATH, ATTAC, ZOC, I use (as do others) SWATH/TWX Proxy combo. You can get Swath at http://www.swath.net TWX Proxy at http://www.grimytrader.com (along with tons of scripts for swath/twx/zoc).

Check out http://www.tw-cabal.com for a lot of information on current strategies, ect.

If you don't have it get ICQ at http://www.icq.com/download/icq5
for chatting in game, most twarriors use it.

Get into a game or two, talk to people, try to team up with someone. The Game has changed alot since then.

Space Cadet sounds familiar. Were you playing in/around Colorado Springs back then?
