Weird Wars

"Weird Wars" is the name of a line of Role-Playing Game books published by Pinnacle Entertainment Group that inject supernatural elements into various military conflicts.
For example, the first book, "Weird War Two: Blood on the Rhine", utilizes the D20 system and adds zombies and other monsters to the battles of World War II.
Here is a blurb about the game from the Pinnacle web site:
"War rips Europe asunder, drowning its verdant forests and plains in Allied and Axis blood. Cities burn. Men die by the thousands. And a mad Austrian searches the globe for ancient occult artifacts to tighten his iron grip on the world!
"But where there is violence and horror, there are monsters. Hideous things that stalk the forests of the Ardennes, lay in wait on the steppes of Russian, or prowl the ruined streets of Stalingrad.
"Into their slavering maws walk heroes, men and women who survive not only the horror of war, but the terror of the things that prey in its blood-stained shadows.
"The Weird Wars Roleplaying Game tells the tales of these grim heroes. Some want to save the world, others just want to survive the night."
