I thought all solders died when they went in... or maybe Einstein was > wearing protection and that's how he killed Hitler (cos Hitler didn't have > protection) Nobody says the machine is a chronosphere, it may be some variation upon it. Anyway, I don't believe Westwood has gone so far in the screenplay : Hitler is out thanks to Einstein, and WWII happens with Stalin, period. We should not try to find something they probably did not think about. It's like many comics books : something happens in issue #35 with no idea why, and another writer will try to explain in issue #98, in a not-that-convincing way ! (Anybody remembers the clone saga in Spiderman ?)
