Its amazing what things will inspire me to come up with ideas. I was watching a video with the song Pure War by Funker Vogt, and this thought pop into my head.

Now, this presuppose's that Germany's nuclear program did not run into all the problems it did. So, with that in mind, here's my what if.

What if the Germans had managed to test and develop a deployable atom bomb near the end of 1944? (say test in late october, and then have a bomb ready by december, just in time for the battle of the bulge) How would this change the outcome of World War II?

I figure it end up becoming a question of who can build more bombs and how fast they can be built, but what could happen before it reached such a point. Would it reach such a point?

I'm not going to make any statement of Germany trying to hide the test, because I'm pretty sure thats almost impossible in Germany's situation (if it is not, please say so.)
