You may already know this one, but Dream Pod 9's old game Gear Krieg is
set in an alternate WWII with lots of "high tech" gadgets. The
Superscience sourcebook is available as a downloadable pdf:

http://www.drivethrurpg.com/catalog/product_info.php?
cPath=73_132&products_id=1213

I paged through the thing years back and it looked o.k., although I
will admit I didn't buy it, so that may say something. $9.95 isn't too
bad, though. Others on the list may be more familiar with it.

Hinterwelt Enterprises also have an alternate WWII game called Shades
of Earth. It seems to include fantasy elements (magic, elves, and
such), but the rules are online and there is a section called Artifacts
and Devices with some relevant items. Unfortunately, the site uses
frames so I can't get you very close:

http://shades.hinterwelt.com/

Just scroll down a bit and click on Artifacts and Devices.

Finally, I've never even set eyes on the Pinnacle Weird War II stuff,
but it's all available for purchase and download from DriveThruRPG.
I've never bought anything from them. If I remember correctly, some
people didn't like the "watermarking." I'm not even sure what that
means in the context of a pdf. Of anyone has experience with DriveThru,
I'd love to hear about it.

You may already have known about all this stuff, but I hope it was at
least marginally helpful.

Good luck, and I'd love to hear about your WWII era games!

Thanks, Shane. The DRM brouhaha must have been what I heard about. I'll have to look through their catalog and give them a try. I've been wanting the Gear...

Thanks for the links. Although I find it strange that you recommend looking in other games to get some NAGtech. I would be hoping that this community would...

Eric- I see, I see. I guess I just intended the other games as inspiration for WWII era gadgetry. I completely understand not wanting big investment for a one...
