Editing DOGFACES Campaign SPOILER PAGE (section)

=Second Arc=
:  '''The BACKSTORY...'''
:  The new team, assembled by volunteer from FDR's ANOM program to aid those in peril at the Pearl Harbor attacks, have just arrived back in the states after having been captured by "the Rising Sun". The team escaped rescuing over 200 souls from a mystic artifact called a 'Hellship' constructed by unknown japanese sorcery as the Empire's Fleet gathered above the Attu Islands.
The boys guess that the Japs plan some sort of incursion soon but know not what exactly. Luckily they'll have the chance to interogate the mighty (and honorable) Jotun (aka. Joe-Ton to the American Press) a famous olympic sumo athlete captured as one of the members of the Rising Sun on their escape.

:  Meanwhile, back in the states - the marketeers morn the loss of their boss who was horribly killed when the DOGFACES were captured at Pearl. But with a new director the team of ANOMS soon learn that the PR bizz ain't as honest as Uncle Sam might want it. They're asked to plan a PR stunt that involves a strange "alien visitor" bent on aiding the NAZI in throwing America into a raging fear. The problem is that this "Nazi Alien Visitor" is a concoction of the Army's PR Core to bolster the team's powers in the eyes of the American Public... To "ya know, make Joe American feel safe he's got 'Curveballs' with super powers on his side to stop the Nazi!"

:  As the team plans this media event one member will be thrust into a real Nazi spy ring of intrigue. Not fully learning the details of the Nazi Spy connections - the team will have to deal with "ADHESION" (which the press will dub "the Glue Goon") who has a gadget inspired exo-skeleton created in his auto factory in Detroit (now a tank, plane and shell factory)... He's got his family all glued up along with 45 other bank hostages at the scene of his bank robbery!!

:  The heroes will have to come to the cities aid, pushed by the marketeers as another PERFECT way to get snap-shots on the front page... But they'll slowly learn that the Glue Goon might not be the evil mastermind the police (who have baracaded him in the bank) think him to be.

:  Later after the Heroes get involved an evil REAL Nazi menace will interupt before the Glue Goon can spill his tale of whoa... Attacking with a force of plain clothed Nazi, the mastermind spy of the master race can't let the Americans know the depth for which the Krauts have infiltrated the American Factories... Leading to a grander adventure to find and foil Nazi Spies in our factories before they can steal our engineering marvels or booby trap our GI's equipment!!


====Glue-Goon====
:  PS... the reason the Glue Goon is doing this is to get his family "protected" as he wants to escape having to be a traitor to America. He's the Manager of the factory that's making all this American equipment and the Nazi muscle has been pushing him and threatening his family... He figured they'd have plans if he went to the police of governemnt for help so he did the next best thing - he robbed a bank to get the ANOM's attention and protection with his family (who know none of this) out of the danger. Okay... so he's desperate. heheh 


====Making it Cooler====
:*  I really like the idea of the old man Glue Goon, a "Paste Pot Pete" type character that in the end will die from the battle - thus setting up his grandson to pick up the Glue Goon exo-skeleton to return with a grudge against the heroes later!
::*  A good way for this to happen, if possible, would be for the misunderstanding of the Glue Goons's motives to be the driving force behind his death. If the heroes don't listen to him (he's a bank robber after all) and he is killed by the Nazi minions when they arrive, or even that the heroes, while subduing the Goon, make a mistake and kill him. Since it is a WW II game, the death of opponents is a little more likely than in a traditional Silver Age game. 
:*   I'm not sure what to do or what type of COOL villain to have for the Nazi... This will be their first Nazi encounter - and even though it's a spy thing the Nazi Minion soldiers will proudly put on their red Nazi Arm band before spraying them with bullets... But I NEED a cool Nazi Villain that would be the spy leader. I'd like to go against a cliche and not have him be a mentalist necessarily. I'm thinking about having him have a sidekick seductress femme fatale. I need help with ideas for this Nazi Contingent. anyone??
::*  The seductive assistant for the main villain is a good idea. As for the head spy himself, if you want to steer clear of the mentalist approach, how about just someone with high charisma and diplomacy skills (nothing superhuman), and some electricity-based powers? Hmm, he could even have senses like radio listening/broadcast, which he uses to intercept Allied communications, invaluable for a spy.
:::*  If his powers, being electrical in nature, also allow him some minor influence on machinery, he would be the natural choice for a sabotage mission dealing with factories. A little electrical charge on a dynamo, and it burns out, slowing production. Add some juice there, and a machine runs too fast, stripping screws. A little here, a little there, it all adds up. And it hard to trace to any single cause. 
::*  I had thought previously of having the villain be a weather controller... So this might fit perfectly. I don't think he'll be so much the MAIN villain now that I think about it... Maybe the main Leutenant for the big bad Nazi in the USA.
:::*  Weather control is nice, although I'd think that they would be more useful on the front, ensuring proper weather for the troops to advance. Or to slow the enemy, hide from planes, etc. On second thought, it would also be very useful in hindering Allied movement. Freak snow storms, cold snaps, and so forth.
::*  I say this because I'm thinking that THIS event and adventure will lead to the Detroit Factory where the main big bad has stolen secrets, is pumping out faulty US equipment and on the side building his own advancements (ie... super science tanks and such.) 
:*   I'm thinking of having the fake "Alien Visitor" and Nazi ally be an actor/stuntman from Hollywood - they might even sit through auditions! He'll be "powered" by some tech the Army's still learning about that was captured with the 'Hellship' - which is a mystic artifact they know nothing about... Not sure what his powers could be... But his Alien look will be made up by the guys who made Frankenstien - Lon Cheney's make-up artists!!
:*   I need a city... a bigger town that this bank could be in. I'm thinking the Glue Goon came closer to the Heroes - but where's a good Military Base in WWII on the East Coast? And what could the town be??


====Villains====
:*  an armored terror who uses neural dampening grenades (Drain Will + Area + Slow Fade) to make victims vulnerable to his mind control rays.
:*  '''the Prussian Prince'''
::  Fredrick of Prussia is the nephew of Kaiser William II, and views himself as the natural heir to the thrones of Germany and Prussia. But with Hitler having an iron grip on the Chancellorship, the Frederick realizes he has little chance of ruling his homeland.
::  Therefore, he struck a bargain with the Fuhrer. As the Prussian Prince, Fredrick would lead an effort to sabotage the American war machine, foment political revolt, and establish a German state within America, playing on lingering nationalism among German-American immigrants.
::  In reality, the Baron Blitzkrieg is in charge of the German sabotage effort, and the Nazis commanders in America widely consider the Prussian Prince a fool. Blitzkrieg leads the teams in charge of sabotaging the American war effort, while the Prussian Prince lives his delusions of grandeur. Blitzkrieg allows the Fredrick to make inspirational speeches to the troops, sit in on council meetings (where the Prince contributes little of value), and feel like he is leading the effort.
::  But, there is more to the Prussian Prince than one might think. The Prussian Prince gladly plays the fool for the sake of his lieutenants, letting them believe he is little more than an empty uniform. At the same time that baton Blitzkrieg oversees the war against America's manufacturing capacity, the Prussian Prince is waging war against America's superhumans. Here and there, he has arranged the disappearance of American heroes. But why?
::  The secret: Through classified experiments in Nazi labs, the Prussian Prince was given the ability to duplicate himself, allowing himself to manifest in more than one place at a time. Additionally, the Prussian Prince is an accomplished scientist who has studied the physiology of known German supermen and of the American superhumans he has captured. Through his studies, the Prussian Prince has constructed a device that allows him to channel those superhumans' energy into himself.
::  I have this picture of a muscular man in a Nazi uniform delivering his speeches as his duplicates, each armed with a transfer device, absorb energy from bound American heroes and use those powers against your PC
