Should Weird War tag be made

Posted under General

Can you describe it in a way that isn't just pointing to other copyrights? Because that doesn't help me understand the concept at all. Is it when supernatural creatures are involved with otherwise realistic conflicts (elves flying fighter jets)? Is it when nonsensical weapons are used seriously (soldiers firing bananas as guns)? Is there any reason this concept can't just fall under some combination of fantasy/war/science fiction tags?

It's mostly a WW2 thing, hence wanting to add the 2, essentially it's fantasy/scifi/lovecraftian aspects in a WW2 setting, hence those series I used as examples, While I said pre-reboot, Wolfenstein The Old Blood is a very good example if you've played it.

EDIT: While it might be a bit pulpy, Weird War is typically seriously portrayed.
