Introduction
Hitler had won the Battle of Britain. The British didn’t surrender, Hitler killed them all. He had the King and Winston Churchill captured and executed over live radio broadcasts. Now the Nazi War Machine had his sights on the United Soviet Socialist Republic. With Britain under German rule, The United States of America was preparing for war.
On December 8, 1941, the Japanese Empire attack the city of Los Angeles, California and Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Without proper warning the cities were destroyed with in hours. In Pearl Harbor, not only did they get the Battleships, they also got most of the Aircraft Carriers, and half of the submarines. The United States Pacific Navy was in ruins.
With the fall of Great Britain, Joseph Stalin got even more paranoid. He stop talking to Hitler. Stalin was now talking to Franklin D. Roosevelt about making an alliance to stop the Nazi War Machine.
June 6, 1944, D-day, the Nazis had now taken over all of Europe, most of Africa, and were about a weeks march from Moscow. The Americans invaded Normandy, with a force of about 85,000 men. By the end of the battle America was pushed back and their casualties were in the high 60,000s. With this decisive battle lost, morale on the American side was low. On the Eastern Front, the USSR was failed to hold the line and Nazi’s strolled right into Moscow. Hitler had captured Stalin, and made him suffer before he had his head cut off. America was on its own.
August 6, 1945, America had finished the Manhattan Project. The first bomb was headed towards Hiroshima. With the devastation of the first bomb, Hitler increased his funding for his research as a result of this. August 9, 1945, Hitler had finally gotten a nuclear weapon. He ordered that it to be dropped on Washington, D.C. when it was finished. Before they could get the chance the bomb exploded in France on its way to a navel base.
When the Fat Man was dropped on Nagasaki, Hitler’s scientists had fine tuned the specifics of the bomb. However, Hitler didn’t drop the bomb until January 25, 1946. When he did the Eastern United States was devastated. Then a couple of weeks later Hitler dropped another one on the Capital of the recovering country. Over the course of the next 5 months Hitler had won the Second Great War. For the past 100 years, Germany had ruled the world with an iron fist.
There had been many rebellions over the hundred years of Nazi rule. There was the Jewish rebellion in Russia and the American Prisoners of War in the concentration camp in ruins of Washington, D.C. Soon the human race grew complacent with their new Fuhrer. Life was proceeding as normal like it was before the war. Hitlers’ dream had been almost become a reality.
A group of American scientists have been working on a project before the war ended. They hope with it they can fix the errors in time.
Right now, I can see valid arguments for why this scenario is really implausible. So before the character sheet, I'll put to rest some of these arguments. I'll put them in the most offending to the least.
Why the hell did we drop bombs on Japan instead of Germany: Well, we didn't have the Britain to store our bombers. They wouldn't have enough fuel to make it to Germany from the US. They barely had enough fuel to make it to Britain.
Russians would still kick Germany's ass even without the help of the US: Funny story about that, in this roleplay Hitler didn't invade Russia in the winter. So they didn't have to worry about snow and cold weather.
If we dropped a bomb on August 6th then how the hell did Germany get one three days later: Well, they were already close to getting a nuke in the first place before we started building ours. They just diverted their attention to other research projects during the war. So the Nuke project was on the back burner. Besides on August 6th Germany had already surrendered.
Roles(There are 5 spots, not including me. They are all time Travelers. So, no scientists. Sorry)

Character Sheet:
Name:
Gender:(Male or female)
Age:(18-30)
Loyalty:(German, American, Independent.)
Description: (I'd prefer words, but a picture will do in a pinch.)
Demeanor:(How people perceive you as)
Personality:(How you really are)
Biography:(A short summary of what your character was doing before they showed up at the 'Lab'
Other:(Anything I possibly missed. I'm sure I missed a few things, but hey who doesn't)
Rules(Yeah, I know I hate em, you hate em. However, we must continue to follow them):
1. Follow basic Roleplay Gateway rules.
2 No Mary Sues or Gary Stu's, any violators will be forced to submit to a German Firing Squad.
3 No God Modding. The only person allowed is the person sitting in that lawn chair on top of Mt. Everest. So, if you want to god mod, send me a pic of you and then a pic of you sitting on a lawn chair on top of the tallest mountain in the world.
4. Posting order, this will be established once we are under way.
5. Posting Minimum. This often turns a lot of players away. I expect a 300 word minimum. It's really easy to hit three hundred words, trust me.
6. Please use proper spelling and grammar. I know that some browsers have spell check, if yours doesn't use a word software to check this stuff.
7. I want to keep this rated PG-16. This is more of a story driven than an action driven game. So, when you do fight with the various characters that I pit you with, don't be overly goreish. I'm not squeamish. There are others who are.
8. Romance is okay, but I don't want to see any sexy time in the posts. It's fine if you fade to black.
9. If you read and understood these rules I want you to put "Errors in Time," somewhere in your sheet.
PS: Character reservations... You got 24 hours, if you don't submit a character by then. We might have issues.
PPS: I'm not usually much of a dick. This roleplay is based off a book I'm writing, so I'm very protective of it. Thank you for understanding.
