I caught this documentary yesterday, interesting background material on the numerous plots and attempts to kill Hitler. There are some useful possibilities for scenarios based on the kill Hitler/stop them killing Hitler idea there. Worth a watch.

Nice. I find documentaries are great for inspiration.
Just last month I ran an adventure called Saving Hitler! I used a true assassination attempt by a guy named von Gersdorff as the basis. The idea was that The Trickster allowed a 70 year old Gersdorff to go back to the 40s and take another crack at it. The best part was it mostly takes place in the old Berlin Armory and I managed to find authentic maps and pictures and even Hitlers speech from that day.
The highlight was the Time Lord character flying a 30s lamppost (Tardis) through the streets of 40s Berlin (fluid links and SPs going fast) to try and head off Hitlers motorcade before the car bomb went off. His RL wife was appalled, but, you know, he had to preserve history and all.
Thanks for the link.
