The fact that he refused to leave Berlin means that he intended to commit suicide the whole time….he was also fearful that his own people would drug him and hand him over to the Allies/Russians to save themselves,hitler’s paranoia was unbounded and was reinforced with the attempted assassination by a group of dissident Wehrmacht officers,so I doubt that any of these scenarios though plausible was possible….

[@BobSmith-rf3ph]

My thoughts are that there was always a 0% chance of him ever being captured alive after 1939 - even if he wasn't determined to avoid capture at all costs - there arguably wouldn't have been an allied solider on the planet who wouldn't have pulled the trigger at that point. The reality is that any witnesses would likely have agreed to remain silent on it, even in the event of being tried for it there would be massive negative publicity for any punishment dished out in that situation, especially as it would presumably involve multiple soldiers as none would admit to it or grass their comrade in. History has told us plenty of times that this is generally the way it goes down, it's rare that someone of that standing makes it out to stand trial, especially in the days before cameras were in most pockets within 100 metres!

And if captured alive in 1945 by USA, France or Britain I'll assume his case would've been heard as one of the Nuremburg trials which was a process where defendants were allowed to make counteraguments.

There absolutely would have been, but Japan would as expected, go down much faster and possibly before 1941, depending on what the soviets got up to in the wake of the nazis being dismembered in 1939.

there's no way he could have restarted the movement after being captured. towards the end of the war he abandoned his public speaking, because he had lost his main talent. his talent was his ability to read a crowd and know exactly what they wanted him to say and say it. but by the end of the war, the crowds didn't want him to say any more about invading, killing, exterminating. at a trial the only people who would go in person would be very hostile. also those closest to him, and his generals, described how nearing the end of the war he basically went crazy. he was so narcissistic and in denial that they could possibly lose that if generals ever retreated he would fire them or even execute them, so most in that situation committed suicide. he was fighting on too many fronts and spread his troops way to thin especially on the eastern front. a general would say 'we have no tanks, we have lost most of the division and there are only a few hundred soldiers left riddled with disease vs fit Russians with heavy artillery' and he would just say 'but our soldiers are germans, if we lose then its your fault' and was basically throwing away all the resources he had left. if he somehow ascended to power again this would only continue and it would be a very swift downfall. he become shaky, with a limp, skinny, pale, and ill, he was not fit for public presentation or speaking and had frequent psychological breakdowns. for months before they even neared Berlin he was refusing to leave his bunker and made most generals come to him in his hole for meetings.

This is all very interesting. But in the intro to the scenario of the beginning of the war, the statement is incorrect. Adolf had no plans of mass genocide at that point. The first plan was to gather the jews and undesirables and then exile them to Madagascar. This didn't work out and he had his top ranks like Himmler and Goering come up with "the final solution". That's why it's called that, it wasn't solution number 1. In reality, they came up with the gruesome plan. But he's still a monster because he had to approve everything they did.
