Jumping into hyperspace to carry out one big attack on the Death Star II above the forest moon of Endor, the Rebel Fleet--complete with Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and the other main heroes of the Original Trilogy--finds itself in the Sol System of the Milky Way Galaxy. But rather than encountering the Earth of OTL, they detect a blue-green world split between two planet-bound, totalitarian civilizations known as the Greater Nazi Reich and the Japanese Empire respectively. What happens next?
Thank you in advance,
Zyobot

What happens next? Thank you in advance, Zyobot Nice, so do we have any data how large the Rebel Fleet is and also are we basing the Man In the High Castle on the novel ore TV series. Good questions. I was thinking that this scenario would take place in the TV series. As for the strength of the ISOTed Rebel Fleet, Wookiepedia provides a summary of those present at the Battle of Endor. For our purposes--meaning that no Ewoks or Imperials have been sent along for the ride--the Rebel forces include: {Spoiler}
-1 Jedi Knight - Luke Skywalker
-At least 4 Braha'tok-class gunships
-At least 8 CR90 corvettes
-At least 5 EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigates
-Redemption
-At least 4 DP20 Frigates
-At least 16 GR-75 medium transports
-At least 13 MC80 Star Cruisers
-7 MC80A star cruisers
-Defiance
-Home One
-Independence
-Nautilian
-Liberty
-X4 Gunships
-At least 1 VCX-100 light freighter
-Ghost
-A/SF-01 B-wing starfighters
-Part of Blade Squadron
-Blue Squadron
-Part of Gray Squadron
-BTL-A4 Y-wing assault starfighter/bombers
-Part of Gold Squadron
-Part of Gray Squadron
-Part of Red Squadron
-RZ-1 A-wing interceptors
-Part of Blade Squadron
-Part of Gold Squadron
-Green Squadron
-Part of Gray Squadron
-Part of Red Squadron
-UT-60D U-wing starfighter/support crafts
-T-65B X-wing starfighters
-Corona Squadron
-Part of Red Squadron
-1 YT-1300 light freighter
-Millennium Falcon (Gold Squadron)
-Yellow Squadron
-2 Lambda-class T-4a shuttles
-ST 321
-Tydirium I hope this helps, Zyobot |

-Tydirium I hope this helps, Zyobot Thanks for the list Zyobot, that helps a lot, i do not see numbers for ground troops, that means the Rebels will have to blast the Nazis and Japanese from space. |

-Tydirium I hope this helps, Zyobot Thanks for the list Zyobot , that helps a lot, i do not see numbers for ground troops, that means the Rebels will have to blast the Nazis and Japanese from space. Yeah, that'd certainly pose a problem if the Rebels were to fight the Nazis and Japanese on their own turf. I'm sure that their capital ships are carrying ground forces, but the lack of specific stats makes it...risky to make assumptions about them. Maybe the normal complement and passengers of the vessels sent along will provide some useful insight that we could work off of? |

If we go by the TV series then we can assume the Nazis have space capability as it is in the 1960s, maybe they are more advance than OTL 1960 but not as advance as in the Novel where they where have colonized the Moon, Venus, and Mars. Lets say that they have landed on the Moon and establish a colony their which becomes the first target for the Rebels who can use it as a base of operations. |

How might the American Resistance react to the arrival of this "Rebel Alliance" fleet who also happens to be fighting a tyrannical, iron-fisted regime from where they come from--and on a galactic scale, to boot? I imagine that Juliana Crane and Luke Skywalker would have an...interesting encounter with each other in the process.

Well there are a lot of other encounters i would like to see, one would be the Rebels meeting the The Man In the High Castle version of the emperor in Berlin. |

Somehow, I imagine that an idealist like Luke would try to get...more than a few devotees (i.e. the youth) to change their minds about their loyalty to the Reich. {Spoiler}
By this, I mean the likes of Thomas Smith--who's afflicted with muscular dystrophy and therefore someone whom the authorities would deem "unfit to live".
Maybe the Rebels have the needed knowledge and technology to cure, or at least alleviate his plight? |

Good question, but hard one to answer. I think that for convenience's sake; though, we should treat it as if the appropriately attuned Rebels still have access to the Force--even if midichlorians don't start growing in earth-bound people's cells, for example. |

Does the Rebel Fleet have any orbital weapons like some sort of nukes to strike the hart of the Nazi Reich. |

Probably some capacity but until they realise the true nature of the Nazis and Japanese regimes they may be very reluctant to do anything that looks like large scale bombardment, especially of civilian targets as that would smack more of what the empire might do. [Relying on my large scale ignorance of the wider stories outside the 1st three films - i.e. those 1st produced - so could well be wrong.]
