<p>This Favored Land is a sourcebook for the Wild Talents tabletop roleplaying game. Where Wild Talents is typically set in the modern day, This Favored Land features superhumans called "the Gifted" in the U.S. Civil War. There are no funny costumes here and no bombastic speeches; The Gifted are soldiers, spies and ordinary men and women gifted with strange powers in a savage time, facing superstition and fear rather than acclaim for their amazing abilities.</p>

<p>Black Devils Brigade is the first full-length adventure campaign for GODLIKE: Superhero Roleplaying in a World on Fire, the critically acclaimed game of deadly action and superheroic courage in World War 2. It lets you and your players tell the story of the Americans and Canadians who made up the First Special Service Force, or—as they became known to their opponents—the Black Devils Brigade.The Black Devils earned their nickname from the German soldiers in the battle for Italy. For every Forceman killed, they killed 25 of the enemy. For every Forceman captured, they captured 2,035 prisoners. Their silent nighttime raids left only enemy corpses behind—corpses and a mocking sticker that declared “The worst is yet to come.” Black Devils Brigade includes:• Character creation guidelines that reflect the unique background and training of the FSSF, and eight pregenerated characters ready for play.• New rules for esprit de corps, a special kind of character motivation stemming from the Forcemen’s deep camaraderie and shared history.• New skills to flesh out noncombat challenges—Bureaucracy, Carousing, Family and Foraging—that can improve characters’ lot during the war.• Rules for sneak attacks, silent death, artillery bombardment and minefields.• “One Roll Patrols” to detail an instant mission with one roll of the dice.• FUBAR! Rules to feature the bizarre, unpredictable mishaps of battle.• Enough adventures for months of thrilling gaming, from the carnage of Anzio to the streets of Rome itself!These are the killing fields of the Italian campaign. It’s time to create your legend.Black Devils Brigade is written by Allan Goodall and illustrated by Todd Shearer.</p>

Black Devils Brigade

"This Favored Land" is a sourcebook for the "Wild Talents" roleplaying game set during the American Civil War. Players take the role of The Gifted, ordinary people who-by divine providence or pure chance-have been granted extraordinary powers. Occasionally seen as saviors, they are most often scorned and hunted as sorcerers and demons, witches and charlatans.  Whether heroes or villains, The Gifted are forced by the superstitions of the day to hide from public scrutiny. But they can't escape their nation's greatest crisis. Whether they are spying for the Confederacy in Washington, riding with Quantrill in Missouri, or marching with Sherman through Georgia, The Gifted must make the difficult choice between using their powers and avoiding the dangers of discovery. If The Gifted can survive the ordeals of war, they-like their nation-will be changed forever.  Written by Allan Goodall and illustrated by Todd Shearer, "This Favored Land" includes everything you need for a thrilling Civil War campaign: Detailed rules adapting "Wild Talents" to the war; weapons and rules for the deadly injuries that made Civil War battles so infamous; an in-depth history of the Civil War; a complete scenario to begin play at once; and much more.
