Set across the 20th Century, Do not Go Gentle tracks the stories of American Superheroes in the post-war era. The initial story is set in 1950, five years after the end of WWII, but will take the protagonists right through to the modern day.
 
 
The world of this game is much the same as our real world, albeit with the existence of “exceptional individuals” aka “superheroes.” In the second world war the Nazis seemingly had better and more powerful “Ubermensche”, thanks to their eugenics programs and lower standards of ethics in human experimentation, but in the end this was not enough to save them. The war was won by the Allies in September 1945.
 
 
This document is the rules set for the above game, which is written up in full at  [[http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?t=390801 this rpg net Actual Play thread.]]
 
 
This wiki then, is mostly for the players of the game and the thread's readers, but hopefully there's also enough here for anyone just stumbling across this wiki to be able to run the game themselves, should they wish to.
