Line 1:
{{trope}}
'''Basic Trope''': Nazi Germany is equipped with and fights with highly advanced technological weaponry and machinery.
* '''Straight''': Nazis have technology far beyond the level of 1940s - [[Death Ray|Death Rays]], [[Powered Armor]], [[Exactly What It Says
* '''Exaggerated''': Nazis can [[Reality Warper|warp the very fabric of reality]] and summon [[Eldritch Abomination|Eldritch Abominations]] with their superscience.
* '''Justified''': Nazi Germany did achieve various technological advances in real life, an example is the space rocket.
Line 11:
* '''Inverted''': [[Nazis With Gnarly Weapons]] have nothing on [[Soviet Superscience]] and [[Raygun Gothic|American Advancements]].
* '''Subverted''': Nazi superscience visible on survelliance photos turns out to be fake.
* '''Double Subverted''': It was actually made by [[Ghostapo|Nazi occult masters]] [[Doing
* '''Parodied''': Nazis' latest and greatest wunderwaffen is a Death Ray-equipped helicopter [[Refuge in Audacity|with swastikas for propellers]].
** [[Laser
* '''Deconstructed''': In [[Truth in Television|something similar to what happened in real life]], what the Nazis gain in a power advantage from their super-tech they lose in mobility and resources. While immensely powerful, the Nazi superscience is incredibly expensive, resource-intensive and time-consuming to produce and operate (sometimes relying on incredibly rare or unique [[Unobtainium]]), is difficult (or impossible) to mass-produce, is slow to mobilize and [[Attack Its Weak Point|is easy to attack or sabotage]]. Meanwhile, the opposing armies have much less powerful machinery backing them up [[Zerg Rush|but are able to quickly produce and mobilize more of it]]. This means that if / when the Nazi superscience is knocked out on the field the Nazis are significantly disadvantaged, and the drain on their limited resources caused by the super-tech means they are unable to easily produce replacements, thus putting them in a likely position to lose the war.
* '''Reconstructed''': ???
* '''Zig Zagged''': A team is deployed to Germany because surveillance photos show Nazis with highly advanced technology, only for them to turn out to be fake once they get there, however it later later turns out that the Nazis have occult mystics capable of wielding powerful magic and/or [[Magitek]]. And THEN it turns out it's [[Clarke's Third Law|superscience after all]].
