Taken from the Darkson Designs website:

"It is 1946. The greatest conflict mankind has ever known has entered its seventh bloody year. Tens of millions have already fallen, yet the war rages on. No corner of the globe has been spared, the shadow of battle hovers above every land. Millions have been left homeless, driven from the charred carcasses of once great cities. Millions more cower beneath the iron heel of foreign rule. Awesome weapons of destruction rain down upon the earth, blasting the land itself into a blackened cinder. Mankind stands on the edge of midnight as the wheel of history turns toward its darkest hour."

AE-WWII is a alternate-history WWII game played with metal miniatures- the miniature range is currently very new, but several new releases are planned for 2007.

Finally the first book of it's kind to be released after over two years in the making. All of our efforts have come to fruition in this stunningly detailed Alternate Events World War II miniature wargame.

AE-WWII is a skirmish-based miniatures game set in the retro sci-fi setting of an alternate World War II. The game is intended for use with the Darkson Designs line of AE-WWII "true" 28mm miniatures.

AE-WWII combines wargaming and historical fiction into a game that has much to offer fans of both. With a flexible, points-free detachment design system players can create purely historical forces or units comprised entirely of the terrifying new wonder weapons available to each side of the conflict. In AE-WWII it's up to the players to decide how historical or how fictional the game will be.

Inside you will find:

Amazingly detailed alternative timeline
A dynamic points-free force organization system
Full vehicle rules
Comprehensive section on scenarios and campaigns
Complete faction lists: American Sci-Tech, German Geneticists, and Russian PSI factions,
