Note that the "present" incarnation of GW is d20-based, as is
"Omega world" so no problems there.

Prior incarnations will have varying degrees of challenge to
mix-n-match, depending on how d20-compatible the game-mechanics
of that version are. GW's 1-4, IMHO, should be reasonably easy.
I've only looked at Alternity (GWv5) once, but IIRC it's a bit
different, so relatively challenging.

YMMV.

May as well chime in with what little I know. Omega World was basically
a short term fix until they came out with the D20 version. Haven't seen
any OW adventures online anywhere. In fact, the only D20
post-apocalyptic adventures I've seen online are for Darwin's World,
which isn't too far removed from GW D20.

As for converting older adventures over over to D20, it might take a
little effort, but shouldn't be that hard. Most likely there are people
in the Yahoo Gamma World email group that have already converted the
adventures over, so I suggest going there and asking.
