>Axis and Allies need to fight a common enemy.

This one is always fun. Common enemy is normally zombies.

Can I use Weird Wars? If yes then yes.

What's Weird Wars?

>>50260232
Are you saying that playing it completely straight and only fluffing settings wouldn't be the best way to do it?

I guess if we have to throw in something fantastical it would be Allied special operations commandeering Axis magic and bringing it back for reverse-engineering.

The world is your oyster, really. If you have ideas for a completely straight campaign, by all means. I put in the OP hard more was only no Mythos... Which was promptly ignored.

I remember when i was a young lad reading a story in 20000AD which i still maintain, Pulp Sci-fi Comics were better than ANY of that marvel shit you yanks pumped out.

FIENDS OF THE EASTERN FRONT stuck with me for years.

About a German Soldier who was stationed with Romanian troops during the war, and he finds out they are really vampires.
Such a great concept the comic was cheesy as fuck.
But i would've loved to see it adapted to a serious movie/game/novel/comic.

I haven't DM'd in ages but fuck it, might as well take a stab.

Boring but keeping down to earth:
Choice 1: Home front counter espionage or behind enemy lines espionage, might be bit difficult to pace and setup though.
Choice 2: Something about neutral countries and possible German attempts to sway them in and players attempting to prevent it.
Choice 3: July plot is succesful and the shitstorm is for players to turn Germany into something cohesive.
Alternate version: players are going to ensure it fails in order to keep Hitler in reins rather than someone competent. Or do they?
Choice 4: French or Polish resistance or something, it's up for grabs how and when.

Going Wolfenstein:
Choice 1: After Hitler's suicide, Himmler uses his blood to summon aid from hell and would arguably cross over to something Doom-esque.
Choice 2: Soviet excavation of Timur's grave unleashes unnatural shit that ties up to writings in the coffin, which coincided with beginning of Operation Barbarossa, and the players are part of the team excavating.
Choice 3: Soviet troops get lost in woods in December 1939 or January 1940 and shit goes down. Probably kinda hard to pull off though.
Choice 4: Partisan hunt somewhere in Romania and turns out they're bunch of vampires.

The "are you fucking kidding me" option:
One of the players is head of state, one is chief of staff, one is chief of the army, one is chief of air force and one is chief of the navy for country x, and it's all about bureucratic demands and handling resources and strategic war.
I once ran this with few history buffs (with hte help of some alcohol) and had separate rooms for each and communicated with letters unless meeting was called which I meditaded and ran the strategic war as seen fit and sent papers to them informing what was going on. It was most unexpected fun we've had in ages, but I don't think it's suitable for most people.

The English language does not have words to convey how hard I am right now.

Just checked it out - looks vaguely like Dust tactics and the Dreamforge stuff. Is it just the table top or is there an RPG? Or is Weird Wars the RPG (or the same thing under a different name)?

>>50263468
Weird Wars is a genre in itself. There are systems/add-ons based around it.

Where has this been all my life? More importantly, where the hell have I been? This is everything I ever wanted...

>>50260232
Yeah, but it turned out very differently than the actual WW2. It was all about small, elite soldiers (adventurers) teleporting around, destroying strategically important assets while the basic soldiers were 90% iron golems and similar shit.

In the end, we won the war by Wishing Hitler and all his cronies out of existence. It was kinda dope but anticlimactic.

What would be a good system for some of these ideas? Preferably not too complicated? I've been wanting to do a Hellboy-ish setting for ages.

Nazi super soldiers.
>Kind of evil campaign
>Germany late 1944
>Party are a squad of German super soldiers, 7 foot tall, blonde haired blue eyed aryan gods
>Have to do whatever they can to halt the Soviet Union in the East and Western allies in the West
>Eventually production of super soldiers will be increased
>Americans will eventually start using nukes on Germany
>If Germany falls they must evade capture by the allies and Soviets (who will experiment on them until they die)
>While evading capture they can become mercenaries, wage a guerrilla war to restore the Third Reich, or try to kickstart WW3 to reform the Reich amidst the chaos

I've always wanted to run a super soldier campaign where the players will slowly suffer horrible side effects of the means used to make them into super soldiers.
