Basically, the idea is that Nazi Germany has technology one hundred years in advance of the rest of the world, and Lovecraftian Occult power. It has energy weapons and we're basically cavemen in comparison. The setting is based in The United States, and we're in the most powerful bastion of resistance against the Nazi occupation in the world. A random omnipotent being has given each player some kind of uniqueness, usually some kind of power, competency or strength that is based on fictional people in comics, video games, books, movies, etcetera.

For example, I'm planning on having someone with the power of a god from a D20 setting. Maybe Takhisis from Dragon Lance, or Rovagug from Pathfinder, or maybe even Mystra from the Forgotten Realms. "Lesser" gods, like Zeus, Ra, Odin, etcetera, and non omnipotents are allowable to have, as well as characters like Alpha Level Mutants. (Storm, Apocalypse) Jedi and Sith like Mace Windu, Palpatine, Darth Vitiate, etcetera.

This looks really promising! I'm definitely interested! How many players are you planning on getting? Also, how much occult power do the Nazis have? I mean, at what level are their basic troops and what kind of actual powers do they have at their disposal?

The basic Nazi grunt doesn't have any Occult power except maybe the ability to not be targeted by Lovecraftian anomalies. However officers, high ranking soldiers, etcetera could have a lot of power, maybe the ability to become Lovecraftian monsters themselves, conjure some more, etcetera.
However, the Nazis have energy weapons, and even with modern day weapons rather than futuristic weapons, we could wipe the floor with our grand parents and great grand parent's armies.

True, but I think that a great deal of the tactical superiority we have now would come from communication and transportation advantages, but that's just me. So do the nazis only have personal weapons or do they also have big advantages in the transportation/ communication and information gathering fields.

Well I was thinking that the resistance is a small, hidden faction of no more than 50,000 personel. So compared to the Nazis, we are less powerful than the Colonials vs British Empire during the Revolution.

That's why we have vast supernatural powers.

Thor is another good one, but I find myself leaning towards Anansi (The spider god of storytelling) or Anat (The war goddess who killed Death itself.) Ah! Decisions-Decisions >. <
