This book has been created for use with Chaosium’s Call of Cthulhu, Sixth Edition roleplaying game and Pinnacle Entertainment Group’s Savage Worlds system. This book, in conjunction with Achtung! Cthulhu: the Investigator’s Guide to the Secret War and Achtung! Cthulhu: the Keeper’s Guide to the Secret War, contains all you need to set games in North Africa during World War Two. Within these pages you will find a Desert War Timeline; new types of player characters, weapons, and equipment; rules for desert combat; tomes, artefacts, and weird weapons; new and expanded information on occult societies and cults in the region; plus advice on running adventures in this setting and numerous plot hooks.
The Achtung! Cthulhu: Guide to North Africa is split into two main sections: one designed for both the Keeper and investigators (Chapters 1-5), and one primarily designed for the Keeper that gives more information on the various Mythos-related threats likely to be encountered in this theatre of the war (Chapters 6-12).
