Yup, there is a tiny section on converting Gamma World to D&D and D&D to Gamma World, but D&D is not Gamma World. Although TSR allowed for an old west campaign setting and a high tech campaign setting, D&D was neither of those. And many elements of high technology in some modules like Expedition to the Barrier Peaks were due to downed spacecraft that did not originate on the campaign world setting. They were not the origin of the technology of the campaign world.Chocolate in my peanut butter.</blockquote>
