GM Name(s): 
Eric Todd

You are an American, born in the roaring 20s, weaned on the energetic aftermath of the Great War. Your adolescence was marked by Black Tuesday, marred by the world-wide economic collapse that would some day be called the Great Depression. You grew to adulthood with the rise of nationalist demagogues, the return of War to Europe, and America's entry into that war. You will join that war effort, may rise to greatness, may leave your mark upon history.

Setting: 

This is a non-Amber game set during the Second World War.

It was originally run in the 1990s by Erick Wujcik. More recently, Michael Sullivan and I ran it at ACUS2008. Repeat players are discouraged. I'm running it now in Erick's honor and because it's one of the most memorable games in which I've played!
