Talk:Adolf Hitler

From Kaiserreich

Revision as of 13:46, 5 October 2007

Though this is vaguely funny, I don't really think it's suitable... Hitler was a down and out painter in Vienna before joining up with the Germans in the Weltkrieg. He was awarded two Iron Crosses and served as a corporal who ran signals. With the war dragging on, I think we can safely let him die in some battle of 1919.

Well, I did it because Kibbles made a funny flavour event with Hitler as a wrestler. It was a wink for it, and also a bit of humour in this world...But if you want to dismiss it...

I think we should ditch this Hitler-Wrestler thing. He could be a successful painter. He could win some money as an emerging talent at an art show in 1936 and then he could become a member of the Grossdeutsche Partei in 1938 (event with no effects, flavour). Kaiser_Crush3r

Hitler as a painter?

Bah! Then you see the horrible paintings he made, I barely imagine him as a true and famous painter, even with twenty years of practice...Or maybe as a figurehead against Dada and surrealism, both engineered by the disgust towards the Weltkrieg... Masked Pickle

I like his landscapes. Especially compared to dadaism and surrealism. He could be on to something in this timeline. Kaiser_Crush3r

Yeah but having him in at all feels very gimmicky, just like the ridiculous "mob boss Stalin". Evans

As stated. Plus him being a mildly successful painter isn't at all far fetched.
