WW 1 settings?

WW 1 settings?

WW 1 settings? We are looking at “Glow in the Dark” and I mentioned trench warfare similar to WW 1 for a Post-apocalypse “image”. I’m thinking of the horrors of WW 1 trench warfare after math. Just roving bands trying to feed groups of people. But I’m at a lost of how we get to that setting.

We could Hand-Wave why the setting is “Glow in the Dark” but WW 1 trench warfare, but I think the history will come up to help explain NPCs, Factions, motives, etc…

Any ideas?

  1. I had a similar thought last year. In the end I made it as a Fate game.

    There was a lot of interest in the paranormal during WWI, which is why I thought vanilla BitD might be better suited to an actual WWI setting.

    That said, I think that this relatively recent historical setting needs treating with a bit of care if you were to actually use it.

  2. Thanks!

    My idea came from Dan Carlin’s “Hardcore History, Blueprint for Armageddon I – VI”. Much grittier than Peaky Blinders (from the 15 minutes I watched), but I might pull some ideas from it.Stefan Struck

    Marcus Shepherd I’m not a fan of the ghost stuff in BitD, or the mutant stuff in GitD, but believing in paranormal would work very well!
