The year is 1947. The war that started eight years ago with Germany invading Poland isn’t over. The conflict has long spread worldwide. Other than the three great blocs, there are but a handful of countries left hanging on to relative neutrality.

As the conflict grew longer, old alliances were broken while new ones were formed.

Nowadays, the leading powers of the past are assembled into three huge states:

- The Allies have gathered around the U.S.A. This great coalition of nations includes, among others, the British Commonwealth and the French colonial empire.

- To secure their survival against their powerful enemies, Germany, Japan, and Italy have merged as the Axis. The rise of this totalitarian state was helped by the successful assassination of the Führer in 1943 following operation Walkyrie.

- The USSR and communist China have united their fates to build the SSU, or Sino-Soviet Union. Becoming a planetary power, the communist bloc intends to impose its way of life on all other continents.

Throughout the world, the three blocs are fighting to gain exclusive control over a revolutionary ore: Vk. This ore has revealed extraordinary properties and brought forth the design of gigantic combat robots, capable of challenging the world’s most advanced tanks.

The discovery and first military applications of Vk came from Germany. Everything concerning this ore is shrouded in mystery. Rumors have been going around saying its secrets were revealed by aliens from another planet… But who could take such rumors seriously after years of war propaganda?

NUTS! WAR WITHOUT END CONVERSION NOTES

Here are some general things to keep in mind about using DUST figures with NUTS! War Without End:

Most DUST infantry figures will be “Protected” infantry wearing armored vests and carrying automatic rifles

DUST mecha are single mode, walking only, without the ability to transform

There are a number of “Star” special characters that players should feel free to convert based on the figure’s DUST game stats.

The units described here were commercially available from Fantasy Flight Games as of October 2011 via their website and through Paolo Parentes’ “Dust Game” website
