Shaithan Omake: "Bond Arguments"
And yes, same as the Vikings, the Celts will get questioned by Neo-Pagans about Celtic beliefs. And re-enactors will jump at the chance to learn more about Celtic life, just like the Vikings have helped groups like the Jomsvikings. Their ability to answer questions about an age we know painfully little about is going to be quite invaluable. Lots of Celtic knowledge was lost during the Roman conquest, regaining even some of it would be an incredible thing.

When a tapping on his office window occured, Admiral Hartmann heaved a sigh. It had been a mistake to let Bismarck's tomcat Eugen raise the Wolpertingers. One of the girls was flying outside his window and wanted to be let in.
He got up and opened the window, letting the young one in. She made a beeline to his chair and landed, looking at him with an expression that clearly said "My chair now!"
With a chuckle, he picked the little one up, ignoring her halfhearted protests. Then he sat down himself, putting the little Wolpertinger in his lap. Absentmindedly he patted her head, sinking back into musing.
He was pulled from his musings when Leipzig barged into his office. "Blofeld?" she said, obviously having lost track of what she actually wanted to say.
Hartmann looked up. "What is it, Leipzig?" he wanted to know.
Leipzig was still in the process of rebooting. "No more James Bond Marathons," she mumbled. "Roger Moore best Bond," she added.
"Sean Connery! Fite me!" another voice cut in, revealing herself to be Exeter.
"Nah, that's what Graf Spee is there for," Leipzig shot back.
Exeter looked around, before laying her eyes on the admiral still petting the Wolpertinger. "Blofeld!" she shouted.
Hartmann buried his face in his palm. "What have you come here for?" he demanded to know. "I hope it's not accusing me of stupid villainy. Also, Timothy Dalton." he gave back.
"Heresy!" both Leipzig and Exeter shouted, before catching themselves.

And yeah, there'd likely be whole production lines of superheavy tanks. On the plus side, tank museums and movie studis around the world will jump at the chance to get their hands on such superheavies and whatever else tanks there are. After all, fully working or easily restored German tanks, facilities with blueprints and the machinery to build spare parts, this is going to make museums very, very happy.
And yes, there's lots of bread for the Duckies to experience. Hazelnut bread, cocoa bread, cocos bread, almond bread to name some sweet variants. For sweet breads I'd recommend spreads like sweet fruit spreads, or sour fruit spreads.

Now that I can see actually, granted there might be language problems. But there's going to be historians from all over coming to see them and to ask them questions. I also expect that they might get bothered by Neo-Pagans who want to learn the old ways as well.
Yeah, language will be a bit of a problem in the beginning, but you have lots of historians who will rope in linguists to help make understanding feasible.Now that I can see actually, granted there might be language problems.

Oh, now this is an amazing picture.
Yeah, it's among other things inspired by King Canute the Great going to Rome to bear witness to the coronation of he Holy Roman Emperor. It's likely going to involve all the Royal Navy sail girls, a massive Parade up the Thames and a staged fight between the Viking invaders and the Holy Roman allies and the British defenders, led by the Princes.Oh, now this is an amazing picture.

It would depend, I think, on whether the magical armies would even care about muggle items or just leave them to rust in place. After all, Grindlewald was all about the "Greater Good", which meant wizards ruling over Muggles and magical beings/creatures. Though this just suddenly put me in the mind of Bismarck and such investigating one such place and finding a bunch of Maus there in various stages of construction before facepalming.
Or even worse, a full-size Ratte. World of Tanks needs a T13 for it and its mortal enemy, the Mörser Karl. It gives players the opportunity to reenact their fondest C&C memory, ordering a tank to drive over something smaller. Like a Maus. Or a house. And picture the Inside the Chieftain's Hatch episode with him casually strolling through it, for once not having to fold into himself in a tank.It would depend, I think, on whether the magical armies would even care about muggle items or just leave them to rust in place.

I can already see them loving it. Huh... maybe after Taigei contacts one or more in order to ask about things to make RO feel more at home or for any other German Submarine.
Well, the Type XIVs were basically the German answer to the question of how to take care of our boats out at sea. Their sinking did decrease the performance of the U-Boats. SO this time around they'd have the same status as Taigei, beloved mother figure and hawkishly watched so nothing happens to them.I can already see them loving it.
