    WI: Harold Wilson coupee?

    There are plenty of rumors over whether the British Conservative Establishment really planned a coup against Prime Minister Harold Wilson in the mid 70s, with the British Army occupying Heathrow Airport as the most obvious 'proof'. Whether it's true is neither here nor there. My question is...

    How long could Hitler have escaped?

    Now, to get this out of the way, I truly believe Hitler died in Berlin in 1945. However I was wondering that assuming he was able to escape to say, Argentina. How long could he have stayed on the run? Could he have hidden for the rest of his life? I think he probably could have evaded capture...

    Would the UK invade a divided America?

    Let's say the CC fails and the states go their own ways. Would the British invade to reassert their authority or no?

    Lets say for one reason or another Maximillian von Hapsburg remains Emperor of Mexico. Either he defeats the Republicans or is able to negotiate a way into power with the assent of the Republicans. What effects would a long lasting Hapsburg Mexico be?

    WI: NES fails?

    What if the NES fails? Let's say it's marketing doesn't work out or something and it's a commercial flop? Would it set back the home console market that much? Could SEGA be more successful? How would Nintendo respond?

    McGovern 1972 win?

    What if George McGovern wins in 1972 and unseats Nixon? Lets say Watergate is unable to be covered up by Nixon for as long as it was and is more quickly linked to Nixon. What would a McGovern Presidency look like? Would he pull out of Vietnam? His loss had a pronounced effect on the Democrats...

    WI: Soviet victory at Warsaw, 1920?

    What if the Soviets were able to defeat the Poles in 1920 and take Warsaw? Do you think the Soviets would've been able to take all of Poland? If they did would the feared Revolutionary wave really overtake Europe or were the Soviets truly at the end of their metaphorical rope for the time.

    WI: Napoleon's First Italian Campaign fails?

    In the closing years of the War of the First Coalition Napoleon took command of the Army of Italy and launched a daring campaign against the Austrians and Sardinians. He was able to defeat them both and eventually managed to defeat them, capturing cities like Mantua and Milan and Turin. However...

    WI: Edward married Simpson as King?

    What if Edward married Wallis Simpson but refused to abdicate? Baldwin would have resigned of course but what would happen next? How would the public react? The Dominions? What lasting effect would this leave on the UK and the Commonwealth as a whole?

    WI: Rhineland Fails?

    What if the French forcefully oppose the Remilitarization of the Rhineland and the German Army fails to remilitarize the area. France and the UK's failure to do so was a big early boost for the Nazis diplomatically and was the first of many major concessions to Germany on the part of the Allies...

    AHC: North Secedes from the South

    The North had no want to leave the Union. There was no men of importance (as far as I know) who honestly suggested the northern Free states secede. However, you challenge is to have them do just that. Have the Free states of the Union separate from the slave holding south. Bonus points if the...

    WI: Mongols take over Europe?

    Lets say the Mongols are able to water their horses in the Seine, what long term effects would this have on Europe? It wouldn't last for too long since the sheer expanse of the empire would probably destroy it but would the Europeans quickly assert themselves or would see a Tartar Yoke type...

    WI: Hitler stays in Austria-Hungary?

    Im sure this has been asked before but what if Hitler lived his entire life in A-H? Lets assume he joins the Austrian Army and survives WWI, would he still rise to political prominence? If he did, would he still be able to fight wars like he did?

    W: Union wins at Bull Run?

    What would happen if the Union managed to route the Confederates at Bull Run like the Confederates did to the Union OTL? Im rather sure it wouldn't end the War right there, but it would secure McDowells control of the Army for the time being. How would that change the War? Would he be as...

    AHC: Have France win in Indochina

    The French Indochina War was a primer for the eventual American Vietnam War which picked up almost immediately after the French left. However, your challenge is to have France win the War. Have French rule over the colony be solidified after WWII. Bonus points for how fast they do it, how long...

    WI: Rogue Russian Officer uses Cuban nuke?

    Its well known that for a long time Russia, and before it the USSR, allowed local commanders to use their nukes without authorization in case of government decapitation. One such time was during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Lets say, for one reason or another, a Russian officer in Cuba launches a...

    WI: Iraq invades Saudi Arabia?

    What if Iraqi troops crossed into Saudi Arabia soon after the fall of Kuwait? Obviously they probably wouldn'tve taken all of Saudi Arabia im not thinking that, im just wondering how far they could get before they all die in the desert or get their asses tanned by American intervention? What...

    AHC: Colonize Japan

    Pretty simple here. Have Japan be totally colonized by another power. Bonus points for how early it is, for how unlikely the colonizing country is and/or how long they remain a colony.

    WI: Purple Captured in Singapore?

    When the Japanese captured Singapore the British had a Purple, or a Japanese codebreaking machine, in the city used for intercepting and decoding messages. For one reason or another the Japanese never discovered it and their codes remained unchanged. However, what do you think would happen if...
