The general plot is that the Germans hold out over the enter of 1918. Come spring, the Allies begin their offensive, only for the strain on the French homefront to become too much. As things in France begin to break down, the Spanish Flu mutates into a far more virulent form. Instead of a 3% world fatality rate, the rate was closer to 10%. Order immediately broke down, spreading from the front throughout Europe and into Russia; eventually covering the globe. This mass death, far greater than the millions who died in the war, broke something in reality, piercing a hole in the veil between the world of the living and the dead. The bodies of the dead rise, machines of war become possessed, and civilization collapses.
My particular plan is for the players to be the crew of a Medium Mark C, abandoned on the front, encamped in a forest to wait out the worst of the flu.
I'd like some help for which system I should use and some ideas for monsters, campaign ideas, etc. Right now I'm considering Twilight: 2000. HERO system has been suggested, but I'm not familiar with it.
Fucking Madagascar will probably make it through. Shut down everything.
> you will never open fire into a squad of female "dough,boys" charging across open ground toward you, cranking your maxim machine gun fire to bark and crackle, ripping into the grimy young women's bodies and tearing through their soft young innocent flesh,some of them are still virgins who were drafted right from high school, and now they will die having never experienced some idea intercourse. As their bodies pile up your bullets begin to tear into the already fallen corpses, making their asses and thighs jiggle from the impact, the few survivors trapped under the corpses of their comrades, pinned down and left to bleed out, whimpering helplessly as carrion birds gather, pecking at their eyes and exposed thigh muscle, the dead women trapped and utterly vulnerable, their corpses consumed by the hungry vultures and digested to make energy for the birds, the bloated corpses rotting, their bellies bursting from gas buildup and shitting themselves as their bowels loosen in the soothing clutch of death.

I'd run a reskinned Dark Heresy, it's relatively modern, lethal, and has rules for possessed vehicles and other demonic shit.
Wouldn't your players hope to reach the britanic isles, since it may not have been reached by the flu (from their pov)?
