Re: Best super power to have in WW2?
You might possess a super power that could potentially end the war but don't forget your enemy might possess a super power that could stop you. Or maybe they have the same powers!.
I find for every power someone will have a super power team or technology to stop you. |

I wouldn't want to be Dr Manhattan. I don't want to see the strings.

Re: Best super power to have in WW2?
I think that many super powers would be good. A more interesting question might be what would have been the worst superpower for a member of the Axis to developed for the goals of the Allies. For example, imagine if Hitler had developed Intuition (Inspired, +100%; Reliable, +10, +50%; Super, -10%) [42]. He would have been able to pick the best strategies from those suggested by his advisors and generals.

Telepathy., (Mindreading and Mind Probe). To heck with combat, I wanna be an interrogator.

Quick Gadgeteer would allow you to make a lot of money inventing creative ways to kill people.

As for most useful, for combat (and avoiding war-ending abilities and the like) arguably Unkillable 3 with some degree of regeneration and probably a reliable suicide ability (so you can’t be captured). If you can swing having Signature Gear respawn with you (or have additional abilities that make gear less necessary, like an innate attack that can stand in for a rifle), and your regen is strong enough, you can practically be a one-man army. Even without that, an infinite supply of soldiers is potentially dangerous even if they’re all naked and unarmed, and of course you’re well-suited for “disarming” traps and the like.

Re: Best super power to have in WW2?
From a long-running occult WWII campaign, where many of the characters use magic-as-powers, Night Vision is amazingly useful, and pretty cheap.
