  1. Could a defeat against Taiwan trigger the fall of communist China?

    Isn't it an open secret that the ROC military is hopelessly compromised my the PRC espionage agencies?

  2. The Man in the High Castle on Amazon Prime

    IJN NERDS GET OUT OF MY ARMY OCCUPATION REEEEEEEEEEEE.

  3. The Man in the High Castle on Amazon Prime

    I do love the little trivia note Amazon gave about Kido being peeved at being under Navy authority. IJN GET OUT OF MY ARMY OCCUPATION REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. The tech levels are bit weird in the MiTHC. The Germans have the nuclear triad but with A-Bombs only with supersonic aircraft (which...

  4. The Co-Prosperity Sphere

    Disgusting Army weapon REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. /s

  5. The Co-Prosperity Sphere

    Got it, I mistook it for the C/30.

  6. The Co-Prosperity Sphere

    Wait, are I assume you're not talking about the semi-automatic hand loaded 3.7cm Flak gun right?

  7. New Deal Coalition Retained Pt II: World on Fire

    Naming a carrier after a person falls outside of even old-IJN naming conventions, unless under the Minseito DefMins there was a significant change. I mean even IJN to JMSDF naming conventions remained sorta similar. Mountains - IJN Heavy Cruisers/Battlecruisers -> Capital Ship/DDGs and older...

  8. TLIAW: Daughters of Elysium - The European Federal Election of 2019

    The idea of Shinzo Abe being a navy man is sort of hilarious.

  9. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    True, to be fair, what made the IJN torps so effective was the fact that all the interwar testing gave them actual working detonators. WNT less verse does give all the powers a lot more battlewagons than they can make do with (Japan gets to complete the Tosa and Amagi builds,less the quake...

  10. Alternate WW2 Navies

    H44 is design study that had a snowballs chance in hell of being built. H41/42 were the limit of German shipbuilding.

  11. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    It would me a interesting thought experiment to see how IJN carrier aviation evolves with just Hosho and no lessons learned from Akagi/Kaga. Not to mention, if they completed the first half of 8-8, the funds that OTL went to torpedo and Special Type DD R&D is expended.

  12. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    Turns out someone uploaded the Banzai cheer from Man in the High Castle

  13. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    Well written as always. Small typo on the "Kempaitei" -> Kempeitai (IJA) or Tokkeitai (IJN)

  14. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    To be fair, with the amount of PODs in this timeline, I think even a very well versed guy would have a hard time. Retention of A-J Alliance along with possible better relations with future US. Probably means a stronger Sempill mission so Hosho remains on schedule. Crackdown on rampant...

  15. 八紘一宇 - Hakkō Ichiu

    Any update or status report on the naval build up ITL sans WNT?
