I’ll stick with what I say all the time; it’s a cross between GW and Fallout (computer game).  You have mutants, but it’s a darker tone.  In a recent “Knights of the Dinner Table magazine”, they talked about DW & GW and they said.  “Darwin’s World is a game that isn’t based on GW but is close enough to server as a useful substitute.”Again I don't know the timeline of GW, but DW is a few hundred years after the Fall.  The Fall happens in an alternative timeline after the cold war. <a href="http://www.darwinrpg.com/index.php?page=articles&article_id=17" target="_blank">http://www.darwinrpg.com/index.php?page=articles&article_id=17</a>But that’s completely optional.  We dedicated a whole section of the new edition to discussing all the various ways the Fall might of happened.   We tried hard to separate setting from mechanics, with the Twisted Earth as the default.d20 Modern.  But we added a new base class, the Post Apocalyptic Hero, which people can use if they want something with a little more flavor.I would say it has a more serious or darker tone.  In someways is also has a satirical tone like the Fallout computer game.Of course, I’m 100% bias, so hopefully  some other people will respond to these questions.-chris</blockquote>
