IIRC there's an old Polish(?) RTS(?) game with that premise, but I can't remember the name.

Spellcross
Mi-24 and Gepards against dragons and gargoyles?
M1 Abrams and Leopards against golems and ballistae?
Machine guns and mortars against axes and bows and arrows?
Artillery and thermobaric munitions against magic and the undead?
All checked and more

This movie was legit and I still think about it sometimes. You wouldn't know that the bald cunt with the warhammer Matthew Mcconaughey until he opens his mouth.

Why would the author of the op pic take the shilka turret 1:1 but not the chassis...

>Japanese defense shitting on not Romans, dragons and rape orcs
I think there is some great potential with fantasy vs WWI. Uniforms wise it would be a lot more compelling compared to modern tac vests and khaki shit. Like plate wearing trench raiders doing spook operations while the rest of the forces roll up with creeping barrages and gas attacks. Biplanes and zeppelins running sorties while those shitty MKV landships just trundle along behind the main bulk.

The most retarded plot ever.

their scales were harder than any metal and they were pretty much immune to fire, they're dragons retard, not just big lizards, there wouldnt be a point to dragons if they are not ridiculously strong magical creatures with only a single weakness

Ah, cool. I totally forgot about that movie. And didn't even know there was a tie-in game.

Legendary. An XBOX/PS3/PC FPS game from 2008. I has griffons, werewolves, krakens and shit.
Had to look up the name, because I remember only hearing about the game back in the day, but I have never had an opportunity to play it myself. And maybe it's for the better, apparently it wasn't very well recieved.

The protagonist killed one with a harpoon.

For some reason a lot of people want it to be a total stomp where you just own everyone, but it doesn't sound like that has any staying power. Instead it feels like it'd be better if it was just asymmetrical and magic and fantasy creatures had their own ways of fighting back.

Also the human side should have fun designs too. Lots of cool unappreciated weapons out there, drowned in a sludge of dull modernity.

Better yet, have the modern militaries start fiddling with magic or magical items and adopting them side by side with technology

Kind of like Shadowrun. Magic and all that happened and humans are caught with technology having to deal with the fallout of a near world ending cataclysm. Dragons and fairies and shit are everywhere now, most countries collapsed under the strain. Cyberpunk corporations took hold of a bunch of holdout areas and became the law. People can choose to be wizards or mages or whatever if they have a talent for it, but largely people are still mundane and just use firearms and melee weapons.
