I think it would have been the other way around, I assume the US would be manipulated/collaborate with Nazi Germany when it comes to this. If we look to the time after the war the US used the Nazi intelligence and its agents to fight communism. But these concepts should stay a bit out of the game since it would lead to this big political debate.

And things may have been a bit differant if there was a pro-white/Nazi/Fascist superpower like how the Reds had the Soviet Union. If the cold war was really Germany vs the US, Germany might have been more succesful into 'converting' the US as the US was always pro-white in one way or the other. There is a good point there. In a three way cold war with the Nazis, Soviets and US, I could see the US viewing Germany as the lesser of two evils and making common cause. It isn't something that is very attractive, but there were enough ugly things in American society to make it not only possible but likely. A historical side-note to really bring this into perspective. The '36 Olympics featured Jesse Owens winning the gold medal. It was highly publicised that when he did so, Adolf Hitler refused to shake his hand. However, what didn't hit the papers of the day was that when Jesse Owens returned to America, FDR also refused to shake his hand. Just a little food for thought about the dangers of simply labeling anything or anybody all good or all evil.

Yes, well we know that those Allies I could (I won't say it was just the Americans because it wasn't) got as many ex-Wehrmacht (i.e. the French Foreign Legion), scientists, commanders and spies. At one point the US Secret Service used the same escape methods as fleeing SS men.

The US had former members of the Nazi party to fight Communism. But that doesn't mean the US infiltrated Germany really. In a way, its the Ex-Nazis themselves who kinda infilitrated the US. I'd imagine the US would divide up between the conservatives & Nazis/pro-whites liberals & communists. ...I think we should take this to a differant thread.

A bit off topic. Back to the topic of Lightening weapons.

What about tesla grenades? You throw them and some sort of lightening explosion occurs?

Could do; perhaps the grenades are just spare tesla coils? It would certainly be a lot of fun. Have it work not by template but instead it has three hits (in this example) say and from the point where the grenade landed it hits the nearest three people. If there are less than 3 people then the spares hit the closest again.

You could throw the grenade figure out scatter as normal than the blast/bolt could ark 1d3 inches.(d6 with result halved)

What about tanks with giant Tezla Coils, creating an electrical field between them that fries everything that gets between them?
