  1. There Is No Depression: Protect and Survive New Zealand

    Wal, Dog, Horse or Major better show up in some kickass form or other. Mccragge is gone so the P&S universe doesn't always have to be Mcragge level grimdark.
  2. Happy and Glorious.

    Vanellope_von_Sc Fuck sakes necro faggot
  3. Brit carrier at midway?

    Strongly recommend reading The Kamikaze Hunters. It was tough with '44/45 levels of resources and experience. Gonna be very difficult in 1942.
  4. World War III in May 1946

    Break the fourth wall and crowdsource for a solution?
  5. Japanese hold a part of Australia

    One of the things that isn't factored in is Aboriginal guerillas. They would have been extemely well motivated and, on their own, well known turf. If properly organised and supplied like Z force, they could have played merry hell with an invading enemy. Enough to turn back an invasion? No...
  6. Looking on the bright side

    Try reformatting it in a word document before posting. Currently it's just a wall of text. I almost expected to see Jon Snow and the Nights Watch up the top. Keep in mind that the easier to read, the more advice you are going to get.
  7. Overland transport of capital ships?

    How about a nuke silo subway? http://www.wired.com/2013/03/nuclear-subway/
  8. Deutschland class upgraded

    Gudestein you have nearly 1000 posts under your belt. Surely by now you will have worked out how to use the multiple qoute function when posting in a thread.
  9. Atomic bomb ready for use before German capitulation: Matters of target selection

    Dropping it east on a target in the path of the Soviet drive might slow down their capture of Berlin but might lead to more aggressive gains by the Soviets in Asia as payback. That's a pretty unlikely scenario though, for multiple reasons. Also my understanding is that the bombing-up pits for...
  10. What if Nelson had died before Trafalgar?

    Sorry I'm still trying to process how the French transport 600 000 across the North Atlantic.
  11. British hold Malaya in 1942?

    The crated spirfires story looks to be bunkum now. Sadly. Google 'buried Burma spitfires + wargaming.net'.
  12. World War II as a Static Attrition War?

    Massed heavy bomber raids make concentrated static defence difficult too. Especially when Tallboys and Grand Slam start to fall. Eventually an Overlord will happen somewhere.
  13. April 1942 Alternate Indian Ocean

    As the bombers departed one of them attacked a returning PBY Catalina but got more than it bargained for from the lumbering amphibian. The PBY’s pilot used his slow speed to snap turn and cause the Betty to overshoot while his starboard waist gunner raked their attacker with his .50 caliber...
