How many Sixes does Adolf Nazi have to Roll?

Persons in TTL[]


So far, just a bunch of ideas (and a fragment of a planned book) by Max Sinister for a timeline in which Nazi Germany wins World War II - without crashing down a few years later already. But also done in a realistic way, without Magic, Time Travel, or important persons suddenly and without any motivation acting in a way that helps the Nazis.

Expect lots of dark humor, you will need it. Just as the people who lived through the time under the Nazis IRL needed it.

And anybody who expects that this TL would have a Nazi Reich without genocides at its end, rather should leave right now.


This story shall give answers to the big three questions:

  • How did we get there? How could Adolf Nazi have won this war?
  • Why didn't the Nazi Reich come crashing down, despite of all their mistakes?
  • And how the hell do we get rid of it, without wrecking the whole planet Earth?

Obviously, the first two questions can only have an answer, if the Nazis have a lot of good luck - the aforementioned Sixes from the Title. How many we'll have at the End, isn't clear yet.

  • First Six: The Wehrmacht defeats the Remains of the Allied Troops in the battle of Dunkirk, after managing to take the city on May 25th before them.
  • Second Six: Work In Progress
  • Further Sixes: ???

Current news about this TL are collected here.

Official abbreviation is "How many Sixes" or "HM6". Or even "HM⚅", if you prefer symbols.

More background info under Important Questions (incl. Why aren't the Nazis simply nuked?), Glossary, "Victory" conditions and Probabilities and PoDs.

This story/TL will be written in both English and German, in a parallel way. All of its subpages describe this World and everyone/-thing in it just until (currently) May/June 1940, besides a few exceptions.

Warning: This won't be like "climbing the Mount Everest of AH", but more like diving into its Marianas Trench.

What's hardest to write? In May 1940, the Nazis hadn't committed most of their OTL crimes yet. In Auschwitz, the first prisoners had just arrived yet; Operation Barbarossa wasn't even prepared yet; Lidice was just another Czech village. This TL shall not whitewash anything, but if you only know its very start, misunderstandings are possible.
