I am of two opinions.I agree that monsters should not be around every 
hedgerow.But I also think,(and this is mostly due to the poster,plus it 
kinda makes sense)that certain military units on all sides should have some 
special things in them.

With the Poster,it shows a Werewolf in a Waffen-SS uniform.Im not sure what 
cuffband hes wearing,but I would think that most SS units have some special 
units integral to them.Im not saying that the entire Division be made up of 
Werewolves,or some other nasty critters,just that because were looking at it 
from a horror perspective,that the Waffen-SS units on the German side 
definately deserve them.I would also suggest the German Special Forces units 
to have weirdness attached.

In the U.S.,I would suggest the following units for inclusion:Rangers,Marine 
Raiders,Merrils Marauders,and the OSS.

England:Commandos,SAS,Paratroops,plus any special Ops units.(Cant remeber at 
this time,toss in names later.

Italian:Again,mostly the spec ops units.However due to the fact,that most 
italian units,were not worth the weapons they were equipped with,probably 
not many.

Japanese:Not my specialty.But the Undead Kamikazi's is inspired.Also certain 
specialist units.

Australia,Ireland,Scotland,Canada:Maybe the Paratroops,and any special 
units.

Russia:Definately some sort of undead in the Guard units.Russian troops were 
totaly expendable bullet sponges.If they had some undead it would make the 
more formidable.

Now,these are just my opinions.But for the Allies,I would do less monsters 
and critters,and more weird science.Sorta Super-Soldiers,and such.Special 
Weapons.But I think it would be less monsters,again unless were saying that 
certain monsters are not being region specific(ie Werewolves),then of course 
they should be in the spec ops units.


Thanks for Listening,
