The world is broken, and we can’t even be sure who did it.  
  
The years after the Great War — the War to End All Wars, the explosion of all the illusions of the ''Belle Époque'' - were thick with race-hate, aggression, hypocrisy, greed and wounded pride. All that was worst in humankind seemed to fester at the core of Europe and flow outward, like a boil on the world bursting and spreading its infection.

The years after the Great War—the War to End All Wars, the explosion of all the illusions of the Belle Époque were thick with race-hate, aggression, hypocrisy, greed and wounded pride. All that was worst in humankind seemed to fester at the core of Europe and flow outward, like a boil on the world bursting and spreading its infection.  
  
The world responded in kind. Or, perhaps, the war was a manifestation of a deeper madness in the world. Abominations arose from the sea, crept from the dark holes in the earth, slithered down from the sky between rain drops and made the war of nations into a battle of humanity against something inextricably Other... and against those humans who would ally themselves with anything, no matter how evil or alien, in order to overcome those peoples they understood enough to despise.

But even as Earth’s mortal inhabitants learned, to their sorrow, that they were not alone, the weird entities arrayed against them found that they did not possess sole dominion over the laws of time and space. A few women and men, very few, saw the impossible and became impossible themselves. Faced with alien gods, they became, themselves, godlike.

Around the world and throughout the war, Talent commandos use their amazing abilities to confront superpowered Nazi "Übermenschen", Japanese "Thousand Dragon Sons" (roughly translated from ''Watatsumi No Sen-Ri No Musuko'') and the secret, awful Mythos creatures the Fascists attempt to release and control to win the war.

=== Things You Need to Know ===
 
 
 
Superhuman individuals - '''Talents''' - have occurred at a very low percentage for a long time. A huge increase in Talents manifesting happened during World War I, though scientists and academics do not know why, or how, or in response to what stimulus this explosion of Talents occurred.
 
 
 
By 1935, Allied Intelligence agencies become aware that a secret occult research organization called '''Black Sun''' has begun working for the highest echelons of the Nazi government. Black Sun operatives scour the earth for occult writings and occult artifacts. Allied Intelligence finds no similar occult preoccupation among Italian nor Japanese forces up to the start of the game in mid-1942.
 
 
 
Even after WWI, the existence of Talents wasn't fully accepted by scientists, experts, or the general public. That changes in 1936, when Hitler has a crew of '''Übermenschen''' demonstrate their awesome abilities at the opening of the 1936 Olympics.
 
 
 
In 1939, Allied Intelligence learns that a new occult military unit called '''Nachtwölfe''' has been created. By early 1940, they are putting occult based weapons into the field for use against the Allies.
 
 
 
In July 1940, at the beginning of what becomes known as The Battle of Britain, Black Sun and Nachtwölfe operatives summon a massive tentacled Mythos horror in the English Channel, hoping to direct it towards the British coast. It is defeated by a brave group of Allied Talents who utterly obliterate the thing.
 
 
 
In the fall of 1940, Japan claims to be able to manufacture Talents. These claims are downplayed by Allied Intelligence at first.
 
 
 
By April, 1941, it's clear that Japan is fielding "Fire Teams" of Talents who all have remarkably identical elemental superpowers. Surrounded by a nimbus of energy that resembles a ghostly Japanese dragon, these individuals have control over Air, Earth, Fire, Water or Darkness. Japan calls these manufactured Talents the '''Thousand Dragon Sons'''. They continue to field the more idiosyncratic "natural" Talents in the field as well.
 
 
 
After the US enters the war in late 1941, the Allies combine their '''Talent Operations Groups''' and assign these superhuman troops as needed to critical operations and missions where the Axis powers are believed to be deploying their own Talents or utilizing Mythos derived technology.

=== USS Neville (Underway) Briefing Room, 0600 Local, 6 August 1942 ===
 
 
 
U.S. Brigadier General Rupertus approaches the podium. The mission commanders stand and salute as he enters the room. General Rupertus returns the salute as he's walks, "At ease!" he barks.
 
 
 
He settles in behind the podium.
 
 
 
"Gentlemen. And lady." He says, nodding to Agent Iris.
 
 
 
"You've all been given tactical maps, with objectives marked for your units."
 
 
 
He checks to see head nods from a few folks in the crowd.
 
 
 
"Here's the overall strategic situation. Our intel tells us our ground forces will outnumber IJA forces two to one. Our current submarine and aerial recon suggest no INJ naval forces within striking distance of our objective, importantly including aircraft carrier groups. We have been given 48 hours to achieve our goals of capturing Tulagi and Gavutu.
 
 
 
At 0330, three ad-hoc under water demolition platoons will insert into our two landing areas. These teams have been drawn, as we've been doing, from volunteers out of Navy Construction Battalions. Teams Seabee Alpha and Seabee Beta will set explosives on coral formations blocking clear access to our primary landing site. They will recon the site, and report back to USS Neville by 0500.
 
 
 
Seabee Charlie will insert with Dragon Slayers, our Talent Operations Group team, near target location Hotel. Seabee Charlie will set explosive charges on the fuel depot and ammo depot in the IJA camp while Dragon Slayers take up hidden positions in the jungle.
 
 
 
At 0600, carrier flight operations from the USS Wasp will commence. Bombing runs on noted defensive hard points, especially the numerous pillboxes located along the main ridge line of the island from our primary landing site to the IJA HQ to the southeast.
 
 
 
Our landing will be timed to hit the beach at 0800 hours. We will attempt to draw out the two known Thousand Dragon Son fire teams on the island - and as many IJA assets from their primary HQ and Hotel as possible
 
 
 
At 0830, Seabee Charlie and the Dragon Slayers will set off their explosives, and draw out and defeat the remaining IJA defenders still on site at HQ and Hotel.
 
 
 
From there, Second Battalion of the 5th will proceed to capture the northwest portion of the Tulagi, while First Raiders Battalion will proceed along four avenues of attack, to meet at IJA HQ and Hotel within our operational window.
 
 
 
USS Wasp carrier air support will then turn their attention to Gavutu. At 1100 hours, they will being flying sorties to attack hard point defenses of the IJN seaplane base contained there. At 1200 hours 1st Parachute Battalion will drop onto the island at begin their capture of it.
 
 
 
The USS Neville battlegroup, after dropping of the 2/5 and the 1st Raiders, will move to a position near Gavutu to provide direct fire support.
 
 
 
Your unit commanders can provide additional details, and answer any remaining questions you have. Good morning, and good hunting!"
 
 
 
As he leaves the podium, all in the room stand and salute him. He returns the salute, and exits the room.
 
  
A young man with a round face and a beaming ready smile approaches the Talents in the room. He holds out his hand, and says, "Hello. I'm Ensign Lewis F. Luehrs - I'll be commanding the underwater demo team taking you into the lions' den tomorrow."
