There's always Tékumel but setting aside the weird child sacrifice it turns out the creator was publishing ss revenge fanfic through a serious white nationalist press.

The bayraktar song translation I saw most often did have a line calling the invaders orcs. No idea if that's leakage from the nazis.

Hey so you know Fabled Lands, a cool series of open-world gamebooks? By the guy who wrote Heart of Ice, which I thought was the best gamebook ever written? https://fabledlands.blogspot.com/2022/03/was-professor-m-r-barker-nazi.html "I’m a bit less ready to cast the first stone. Also, I don’t believe it. This novel wasn't a dark secret kept hidden from public view. Professor Barker openly mentioned Serpent’s Walk to me in our correspondence in the 1980s, and I have seen the letter he sent about it to a British publisher at the time:" Yeah gently caress youuuuu

Some have discovered that Professor Barker may have been listed on the editorial advisory board of The Journal of Historical Review, a Holocaust-denying magazine. A screenshot of the contents page of one issue in the early '90s (when he was actively trying to sell the novel) lists a “Phillip Barker, Ph.D”. Was that the Professor? It might well have been, but let’s not conclude that he’s more evil than Sauron just yet. I was a consulting editor on White Dwarf in the ‘80s – that doesn’t mean I agreed with their editorial or commercial policies.

More to the point, if “Phillip Barker” submitted a letter or article to back up the credentials of “Randolph D Calverhall” (the author of Serpent’s Walk) that’s very likely just part of the cover story supporting his literary hoax. And why do that as “Phillip Barker”? The Professor was Phil to his friends, but used his Islamic name professionally. Given its politics and readership, The Journal of Historical Review would presumably not have had anything to do with “Muhammad Abd-al-Rahman Barker, Ph.D”. To infiltrate them he went in undercover.

I've reread that post and his reply to someone, and thought about it some more, and I can't help thinking that he laughed off and didn't recognise Barker attempting to recruit him. Like, that reads as a clear attempt to lure him in, right? I'm not going crazy here? Barker's offering up an ironic joking lure - with reassurances that of course he's fine with Jews, nice people - and then backing off when Morris doesn't bite.

40K logistics people perform miracles every second of every day, even with some big freebies thrown their way. Sure, they lose a planet occasionally, but it's the unit in a continent-wide desert getting an orbital drop of inflatable boats that you hear about, not the 999,999 that get the right resupply.

MrNemo posted:Not a game bit Charles Stross' the Laundry Files novels take the view of a British 'civil servant' who is slowly initiated into the reality of the Things Beyond the Stars and the response of various governmental organizations. The novels do progress the setting with end times rapidly approaching and Eldritch horror becoming more and more ubiquitous. That said I haven't read any for a few years and not sure if he's stopped writing or if the quality has noise dived. Stross did decide (or clarify, I'm not entirely sure) that CASE OH gently caress IT'S GREEN is a spectrum, a timeline or something, not one grand event, which the earlier stories kind of imply. It's also a game now.

From Imladris they crossed the Misty Mountains by many passes and marched down the River Anduin, and so came at last upon the host of Sauron on Dagorlad, the Battle Plain, which lies before the gate of the Black Land. All living things were divided in that day, and some of every kind, even of beasts and birds, were found in either host, save the Elves only.
