From Modiphius:
Achtung! Cthulhu 2d20 — originally created by Modiphius founder Chris Birch, and developed by narrative designer and Cthulhu author John Houlihan and respected game designer Nathan Dowdell (Conan, Star Trek, John Carter, Dishonored, Fallout, and Dune RPGs) — launches with a full roster of core books, bundles, and accessories to give you a chance to battle Nazi occultists and elder gods in a thrilling cinematic World War II adventure which promises a rollicking tabletop ride.
Battle fearsome Black Sun troopers who utilize ancient magics and incantations to summon extra-dimensional monsters! Use good ol’ fashioned teamwork and bullets to stop the technological prowess of the terrifying Nachtwölfe – the Night Wolves – and their powerful wunderwaffen! Save the world from the Nazis and strange alien races that live amongst us — like the Deep Ones, Mi-Go, and nameless horrors from unspeakable realms! All this from the comfort and (relative) safety of your tabletop.
