About the game

The year is 1949, and the world is still ravaged by the horrors of World War II. London and Berlin have both been obliterated by Atom Bombs, and Northwest Europe and Eastern Russian are ravaged by the the aftermath of V-Gas - a deadly nerve agent which kills the victim and then re-animates the corpse. And yet the war still rages. Small battle groups of British, American, German and Russian troops still engage in combat, aided by new technology and darker magics. It's a world where Bullet Proof Vests, Powered Armour, Assault Rifles and Panzer Mecha sit alongside Werewolves, Vampires, Drug enhanced Super-Soldiers, Psychics and Zombies. This the world of Secrets of the Third Reich (SOTR). SOTR is a set of Miniature Wargames rules, which enable opponents to fight battles in a Weird War II setting. It is supported by a range of 28mm figures, produced by West Wind Productions.
