Is there a "chronology" of wierd or occult WW2 out. It should not be an alternate history where WW2 is changed or vaguely plausible. It should cover as much horse hockey as possible. |

None that I'm aware of, because there's so much to choose from. If there is one out there, I'd be interested in reading it. |

I think the Gear Krieg books collectively had a WWWII chronology woven through them. |

Perhaps Hellboy fans have made one. The backstory for Hellboy runs through WW2 without changing any results. |

I think the roots of the Nazi occult are in the Thule Society. Not sure how deep they go or if my spelling is correct, but I know there is a link. |

I've found that most Weird WWII games do have a chronology in them. The closest I've found to all the weird stuff happening is from Alan Moore & Kevin O'Neill's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Black Dossier. It mainly takes place in the 50s, post-1948 (read 1984), with the League coming across James Bond, Harry Lime and the shadow of Big Brother. Interspersed with the story are documents about all periods of the League, including WWII with the struggle against Adenoid Hynkle. It is also probably not to everyone's tastes. |

Gear Krieg has a superscience-only background for Weird War 2, at least up until early 1943. I'm thinking about adding the Kerberos Panzer Jaeger victory in Stalingrad to the DP9 timeline (hey, if you put modern heavy body armor into a WW2 cityfight, it would really change things). |

More than the zombies, the walkers and the Volga gun? Bakelite armour is available at that time anyways, so just put on that gas mask and hook up the MG42… |

The timelines in the front of the AE-WWII books are impressively comprehensive. Down to noting which are real-world events and which they added in. Quality stuff. |
