And the one I remember, offhand, just has Indy catapulted forward into Ranma's time period for some reason I don't remember (or if it was even revealed in the part of the story that was completed).

Well... I've no clue in total how many there have been involving in one way or another Ranma and Dr. Jones in one story, but:

R-MULTI 'Suikoden One Half' by MadHat886 - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=06/02/2009] - [Size=4464kb] - [Files=82]
There is a triple cross involving Jones, Croft, and Ranma, Jones merely mentioned, and follows Tomb Raider timeline in:
R-TR 'Ranma 12 Cryptkeeper' by Dark-Ranma-S - [Status=Not Complete] - [Last Dld=02/22/2003] - [Size=104kb] - [Files=3]

Not a bad idea, Spokavriel. I´ll definitely consider it. Now I just need to find some source of christian occultism so that I can plan better the exact motives of the Ahnenerbe Occultists. Calculus by the way thinks they´re just a bit eccentric bunch of tourist guides who are guiding him around on this rather unexpected vacation to these interesting Middle-Eastern ruins. At least that´s what he has picked up from their talking and we know how great his hearing is.

For Christian ideas you could always go to the Bible. Judges Kings and Chronicles in the Old Testament or the I-III John near the end of the New Testament could be good for ideas.

With Revelations and Daniel always good to come up with some fantastical elements.

Lol, why on earth I didn´t think THAT? :P

Then Again I could watch NGE and try to understand all the symbolism (which as far as I know has no any deeper meaning)

Actually I could just research Jewish Kabbalah too, ty for the idea.

Actually,what if the Nazis mistake Ranma for a Chinese national?
Remember,most Westerners cannot tell the difference between the various Eastern races,and there are several reasons why they could make such a mistake:
(1) Ranma wears Chinese clothes.
(2) Ranma has a pigtail,which if I remember is more common among Chinese than Japanese.
(3) If any country is associated with barehanded martial arts,it's China.
As for including members of Ranma's supporting cast,I have to point out that Happosai was around during this era.(As was Cologne- but she's probably still in China).

Would a Nazi who can't tell one Asian from another know what clothing style is Chineese? But Japanese is a language that gets used in some official communiques so as soon as Ranma starts talking someone high enough will be able to tell he's Japanese. Also the Top Knot was Japanese and allot of people are in photographs in the World Wars Era with ponytails if not pigtails that I have seen. I don't see it in younger children almost like they weren't allowed to have a hairstyle yet but you can only tell so much from photos.

Propably rank and file Nazis don´t care that much of his nationality. Just a suspicious guy with a weird clothes running amok. Higher ups might get quite interested if they manage to figure out he´s japanese.

Happosai. Good for some random chaos at least but he´s propably annoying people in china at the time.

He might need to divide the reactions based along which types of troops he is talking about. SS would probably react different from the rank and file.

Historically, a few Japanese managed to break the blockade and visit Germany, so German soldiers would probably assume that Ranma or Happi were Japanese, and treat them cordially. Both sides took their alliance seriously, and the Germans sent submarines to Japan carrying plans for weapons and samples of technology. To this day, Nazi regalia and uniforms are just cool looking clothing to the Japanese, and have little of the stigma they carry in Europe and America.

In fact, there were a few regiments of Japanese-American soldiers who fought in Europe (they weren't permitted to fight in the Pacific for fear of conflict of interest, and there was the possibility that other soldiers might think they were some kind of spies), and it bewildered more than one German. I remember hearing somewhere that a German taken prisoner by the 442nd Infantry in Italy was heard to say to one of the soldiers, "I thought you were supposed to be on our side!"
