Not only won't it do any good, it's likely to be rather counterproductive. I don't LIKE not really getting any feedback, but I also know it's because he's Hugely Busy with other major projects, and probably quite a few minor ones.

If I were he, with limited bandwidth, if I got an e23 proposal from Stoddard, Masters, Pulver, Vortisch, Fisher...it would go straight to the top of the list. These guys write Books that Sell a Lot.

Cole? Who knows?

I think it's awesome! Has me tempted to start yet another campaign, though my players may revolt if I don't wrap up some of my others first.
The only critique is that you need to go back through and proofread again, there are a number of minor typos and misspellings spread through it.

So Hitler is Cthulhu awakened... needs German grammar cleanup.

[NeverCool]

@Douglas: I know, just kidding. I know it's probably the whole GenCon thing. Just frustrating nonetheless.

@Armorlord & Diogenes: Grammar and spelling is imperfect (elShoggotho did a quick correction on my German). I am planning a redo and expansion later on. And the difference between Cthulhu and Reich-X Hitler? Cthulhu has no mortal agenda. Hitler wants it ALL ;-)

I always get Dr. Strange vibes from this comic. The idea that national leaders embody the focus of their nation's mystical energy is very old and very neat.

That's right, but for the common people, the difference would be naught for all practical purposes, I think.

That officially bent my mind. O.o;
And on the side makes me wonder about Stalin's fate on Reich-X..

Hey!

I'm kind of a friend to shoggotho ('guess I am, at least o.O) so he send the whole stuff to me. After reading it over and cleaning away that blood I had gorged out while laughing my ass off, I went here to check out what else is going on relating to Reich X.
First of all I have to say I'd leave your spelling errors like they are. I mean ... they're just that kind of bad "denglish" that nazi henchmen speak in like every second rather bad game/movie/etc. So leave it - snear a bit while speaking and everything will be fine. Uhm ... und evrithink vill be vine.
For the Raumwaffe some other idea came back to my mind - a giant svastika-shaped space station, slowly turning while it floats menacingly in orbit. Booo-hoo-hoo-hoooo ...
Btw. the setting is definitely darn threatening and leads one to pretty much thinking. Problem for me is that I pretty much hate Nazis (I'm german, thus the whole thing has even more of a relevance to me) but on the other hand I'm totally into any trashy stuff that has to do with nazis - like Indiana Jones or Captain Nazi oder whatever ...

Btw! What about artwork? Anybody here who knows anybody who could throw in one or two nice illus for this?

//: lol ... while writing this I'm listening to the Exodus Song. That's quite strange ... o.O Change to Feindflug!

[elShoggotho]

...so I'm guilty of pulling yet another German into the schemes of the Illuminati... and ultimately into the clutches of Cyborg Zombie Hitler. Welcome, welcome!

[NeverCool]

It's really enjoyable to see all the neat ideas that Reich-X is inspring in people (that Swastika space station.... I never mentioned how Himmelheim looked, come to think of it....). I wouldn't mind seeing how different people would illustrate Eisenkrieger, the Ausenweltler (I am trying out that proper spelling, though I agree that there is a deal of 'B-movie German' quality in the errors!), or even, gasp, Undead Cyborg Hitler (theoretically, he's not a zombie, just raised from the dead. Though the difference might just be semantical). And if someone can actually illustrate a Qabalistic Jew with his guardian spirits, that would be neat!

And just to add a bit of possible interest... As some know, I am planning a professional magazine (see my sig), and I just got the thumbs up from SJG to do original GURPS articles. Hmmm..... what part of Reich-X should I do an in-depth special on first, I wonder :-D
