Achtung! Cthulhu - Gamemaster's Guide

The Secret War welcomes you! This breathtaking, pulp-tinged, adrenaline-fueled RPG effortlessly blends the delirious terrors of Lovecraftian cosmic horror with the mayhem and heroism that made World War II famous.

As the Gamemaster, you will bring this world to life, populated by fearless Allied heroes who will embark on heart-pounding adventures, guiding the legendary actions of the players as you pull the blasphemous strings of the Nazi occult effort: the Order of the Black Sun , who wield unholy magic and summon nightmarish creatures to their control, and the Nachtwölfe , his rivals, who place their trust in Atlantean technologies, bizarre science and mysterious wonder weapons.

You will shape a reality filled with horrific secrets and powerful artifacts that lie forgotten in antediluvian ruins, as well as dusty tomes brimming with esoteric knowledge. You will also arm your players with experimental devices, deadly weapons, and powerful magic, with which they can face every incredible peril that lies ahead. Will our heroes triumph against all odds? Or, like so many before them, will they succumb to the malign influence of the Mythos? This is a story for you to weave and tell…
