So how advanced is tech in your time line? Radical with laser weaponry or just expounding on the theoretical of the time like wind cannons and the Tesla Ray? Is the bio-engineering done via human manipulation, alien or a more sinister force?
Is Tech 40K-ish were it is devastating in theory but still clunky and untried?
Look forward to checking out the rules book.

Basically, everyone involved in WWII has reached out to 'wonder weapons' and expanded on fringe science concepts not fully accepted by the general public. While the bulk of these technologies are limited to the military, some may find their way into public use.
The Americans have expanded on Tesla and other fringe scientist's work to develop teleautomatics (robots), mechanized infantry (Buffalo), rocket packs and electric guns.
The Germans have taken material from a crashed UFO to develop significant advances in genetic manipulation and cybernetics.
The Soviets are harnessing the growing psychic abilities of their people and coupling it with some strange technology to enhance these abilities.
So, we've got a little something for everyone! For complete details, see the Core Rulebook! ;D

One thing I would like to see in an expansion is the German use of drugs. The falschimjager used meth IIRC to help in combat situations for instance. |
