Dogfaces
Irgendwie zeitlich passend kommt 'WWII: Dogfaces' rein¸ ein Quellenband¸ der sich kriegstechnisch vor allem mit der Sichtweise und Kriegsführung der Amerikaner beschäftigt. Anders als der Vorgänger Frozen Hell (u.a.) handelt es sich diesmal um einen DIN-A4 Band und kein Heftchen im Comic- Format.
From the smoking wreckage of Pearl Harbor to the ashen wastelands surrounding Tokyo Bay nearly four years later¸ join the United States and its armed forces as they make the world safe for democracy in GURPS WWII: Dogfaces!
Inside you'll find:
- The war seen through American eyes¸ transforming overnight from European nightmare to global crisis.
- The U.S. Army¸ Navy¸ Army Air Force¸ and Marines¸ growing in size and ability at breakneck speed to meet the threat.
- Rules for American characters from all walks of life¸ in and out of uniform and on both sides of the law.
- More small arms and personal equipment with which to outfit American characters¸ and a host of new armor¸ warplanes¸ and naval vessels with new gear to equip them.
- A detailed description of fighting on the Western Front¸ from D-Day to VE Day.
- An overview of the homefront¸ describing what went on while the GIs were away and how the nation managed without them.
