  1. WW2 or WW2 analouge without Holocaust

    Read a bit what kind of people he was gathering on his way to office. Without Jews he would get nowhere. Most polititians wouldn't even let him drive their cars. His deputy was a chicken farmer.
  2. What if the Twin Towers survived 9/11?

    if you have a very high frame of steel and you know that steel can be stressed by heat to the point the frame becomes vulnerable to its weight you want to isolate it every few levels or so, horizontally. I mean to cut termal flow in vertical direction.
  3. No moon landing

    Well thats obvious. Did anyone try to model something like that on earth, like an enclosed area with one sixth gravity.
  4. What if the Twin Towers survived 9/11?

    How many skyscrapers built off similar blueprints and without adequate horizontal insulation belts exist today? How actually can you isolate a steel frame that way?
  5. No moon landing

    I wonder how high you can jump in one sixth gravity. Did anyone try to recreate that ratio on earth?
  6. WI Britain told Poland in 1939 "You're on your own." ?

    you are very wrong about Hitler plans with respect to Poland. He had done all in he could to add Poland as one of his allies against the SU. First, Poland was strategicly placed, second Polands relations with the SU were very bad; the Poles dreamed about recreating the medieval Polish empire at...
  7. 1940. Romania decides to defend Bessarabia and resist the Soviets.

    Depends on how well that oil was shielded from Soviet possible bombings. The Soviets need one massive assault both ground and air on the romanian oil industry if the bombers alone fail. Still, no need for a country wide operation.
  8. USA joins Axis

    Don't forget that the Jews were building the Atomic bomb.
  9. WW2 or WW2 analouge without Holocaust

    that was ecactly what happened in OTL and it didn't work. Hitler would have had a big problem gathering enough support without his anti-Jewish propaganda. Anti-semitism was "in" He embarced anti-semitism and nurtured it like his most precious baby for the sake of propaganda. He was an...
  10. What if the Twin Towers survived 9/11?

    Good points. The Capitol was also on the menu if I remember correctly. It was the only structure that can be called iconic. This is the reason mayby why Ground 0 has not been proposed as a building site for a building that would overwhelm the past towers following the princip that a great...
  11. 1940. Romania decides to defend Bessarabia and resist the Soviets.

    whatever Hitler does, he has to thread carefully. The Soviets don't need to invade Romania. They took Besarabia to position themselves within easy bombing distance of the romanian oil fields. One of the goals of Barbaossa was to secure these fields form soviet air assults. In the secenerio this...
  12. 1940. Romania decides to defend Bessarabia and resist the Soviets.

    Hitler would say yes. it was his top concern in the war with France. He said if the Soviets had stabbed him in the back then and cut off the oil he would have been finished and could have done nothing to stop them.
  13. Overlord vs. Barbarossa vs. Bagration

    Bagration was the most cunning and best disguised massive operation in history. Everyone knew about Barbarossa with the exeption of Stalin. Thou it is imposible to compare since penetration depth and goals were different. Bagration compared to say Taifoon makes more sense.
  14. 1940. Romania decides to defend Bessarabia and resist the Soviets.

    Hitler couldn't have done much since Werhmacht was tied in the west. The Soviets, following the pact, could invade in the best suitable time. They picked the right time to do it. I wouldn't compare it to the war with Finlad since the finnish war was a winter war. Ttemperatures fell well below...
  15. Could Hess become Fuhrer? Or is it ASB?

    He stopped that game before he was sentenced. I think he might have been scared he would be fed to the Soviets and taken to Moscow and put in a cage in the Red Square.
