[QUOTE="JPL, post: 715151, member: 1964"] Here's the back-cover blurb: ________________________________________________ They were the Greatest Generation. When the world itself was in danger, they manned the front lines, drove the tanks, landed on the beachheads . . . They were the dogfaces. Dogfaces is the definitive roleplaying sourcebook for U.S. ground forces in World War II. Whether it's storming the beaches of Normandy, outdueling German tanks in the Ardennes, or retaking the Pacific island by island, the infantry, armor, and artillerymen of the U.S. Army and Marines were the backbone of the Allied war effort. With the attention to detail and historical accuracy that GURPS is known for, Dogfaces gives you all the information you need for roleplaying this vital part of mankind's greatest conflict. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lots of good stuff about the day-to-day realities of being a grunt. Recruitment, basic training, the organization of a rifle squad, drinking your aftershave, French whores. Some notes on different campaign styles --- from John Wayne to Saving Private Ryan. Rules for getting tired and getting scared and breaking down. Looks very, very good. I'm d20 to the bone, but GURPS puts out some interesting books on a wide range of topics. [/QUOTE]
