World War II Books

Hello Heroes.

I've written 3 books for people interested in WWII adventures. They are:

Home Front (Mini-adventures set in WWII USA)
World War II Super Soldiers (30 Axis/Allied super humans)
Peril in Panama (an adventure set in WWII Panama)

They should make a good Giants one day, but I'm toying with assembling content for a second WWII set as well...

So let me ask you this - would you rather have a book of 30 more WWII super-humans OR would you rather have a Citizen's Report style source book with details/stats on military weapons, tanks, planes and vehicles? Some kind of blend of these two choices, or something else entirely?

Thanks!

RAMBLE

There is very little info for that period for V&V including:
1) Paranormals and government
2) Paranormals and history
3) Villains/vigilantes
4) Available technology (weapons, vehicles, etc)

...so anything you include is guaranteed to be helpful.

Why not both? (Yes, I'm greedy like that).  Cheesy

The materials sourcebook would be an excellent resource.

Initially my answer is the same as Dom but of "forced" to pick one or the other Im with Bishop. Source material is always more useful than a gaggle of more heroes and villains.

Actually there's a way to "have my cake, and eat it too". Add an appendix at the back of each book, listing things like weapons, vehicles, etc.

And I might not like the smaller size they come in but props to the Giants for getting three books per pub. Smiley

Or that's my plan for Rambles WWII stuff at least
