Yes, so Jervis Johnson in particular has told me. If you read
Epic:Armageddon,
the WW2 Influence is obvious.

Congrats, that will no doubt improve the content, and no, I'm being
serious,
not sarcastic. The more input people who are into historical simulations
as opposed to Munchkin gamers have, the better.

OK, time to fess up:
I have a minor credit in Epic:Armageddon, and an even more minor credit
in "Munchkin 3: Clerical Errors" so am in no position to talk...

And in PC games, one in "Europe Ablaze" that should really be for
"Carriers
at War".
