Survivors' Guide to the United Kingdom is a supplement published by Game Designers' Workshop (GDW) in 1990 for the post-apocalyptic role-playing game Twilight: 2000.
In the original Twilight: 2000 game, many of the first adventures centred around a military unit stranded in Central Europe following a fictional World War III known in the game as the "Twilight War". Survivors' Guide to the United Kingdom gives details of how to create a campaign setting for adventures set in Great Britain.[1]
The book covers:
- Year by year effects of World War III on Great Britain, 1996–2000
- Subsequent changes to geography, living conditions, the economy, and available armaments
- A guide to various regions
- Notable personalities
- Various military and militia units and intelligence agencies
- Random encounters
Publication history
GDW published the first edition of Twilight: 2000 in 1984.

Survivors' Guide to the United Kingdom was one of the last supplements published for the first edition of Twilight: 2000, since shortly after its release, GDW published a second edition of the game.
