User blog comment:Wagnike2/Assasin's Creed Fantasy Setting/@comment-5546424-20121119215232

Time Period: World War II

Events (In Order): Invasion of Poland, Battles of the Atlantic (optional...I only put this because of AC3's Naval Battles), Battle of Britain, Battle of Greece, Battle of Stalingrad. There could be more. I just listed a few, but the Battle of Stalingrad is a MUST considering the idea I have in mind.

People: Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Winston Churchill,

Locations: Soviet Union, Germany, Britain, Italy, Greece, Poland. Could be one city each, or Ubisoft could go all out and try to include as many cities as possible.

Reasoning: I was once opposed to the idea of an Assassin's Creed in WW2, but eventually, I couldn't stop thinking about how it could work story-wise. What if the main guy was a GERMAN Assassin? Now hear me out, anyone who thinks German = Nazi, he could be a guy who, although German and proud of it, believes what the Nazis do is wrong. So, he fights as Assassin to fight against the Nazis and Hitler's dictatorship (< this fits with the Assassins wanting to protect free will and such). He could infiltrate the Nazi ranks, pretending to be one of them and following them on their campaigns, but secretly helping the Allies and anyone against the Axis Powers. Where Altair fought because of duty, Ezio for revenge, and Connor for Justice, he could be sort of the freedom-fighter type. Ubisoft could even throw in some diverse Assassin recruits from all over Europe and the Americas to join the main guy's cause like they did with AC3.

EDIT: I am aware Ubisoft already denied WW2 as a setting for the GAMES, but this would, at least, make an awesome BOOK, like the ones about Nikolai during the Russian Revolution.
