So, during the American Revolution, John Paul Jones made it to Whitehaven, and hoped to burn over two hundred British ships, and then torch the crap out of the town, just to piss His Majesty off. He ran out of oil and flammables and so his men went to a pub in order to get some more. Temptation had its way with them, and they ended up getting tanked instead. Simultaneously, one of the crew turned traitor and ran through the town screaming that the Americans were there.
Well, what if A) his marines didn't stop to get their drink on, B) he brought more oil and so the pub could be avoided, or C) there was no Paul Revere-ing to alert the town? How does this effect the war? I know JPJ was all about getting a combined American-French-Spanish fleet to invade England (which I'd bet is more towards ASB, even if it is goddam epic).
Whoops, never mind, some just asked this question =P
