I assume you've been on the other Board(s), but Adam Lodge had several family members amongst the Argentine Leadership, so the US sent him down to try to talk the Argentines out of launching the attempt, but it failed. It's in Adam Lodge's backstory, although with the rebuilding state of the...
There were two nukes on the East Coast, that I can remember. One was apparently a one-off sub launched missile* that was fired just off the coast and hit D.C. The second was planted on a barge on, I think the East River, and nuked Manhattan. I do know Columbia University got hit/destroyed by...
I'm not sure whether or not you're familiar with the movie, Red Dawn, from 1984, but's basically a timeline expansion from that movie, but focusing in other areas, such as with @Matt Wiser's character being an F-4 pilot, who over the course of the war, rises to command his Air Force Fighter...
While he would have a freer hand in the 1984 POTUS Election regarding his VP, for his "first term", he can't just pick whoever he wants, since both the House and Senate would have to vote in favor of the candidate. While the GOP controlled the Senate, the Democrats held the House, and I...
So, I looked around, along with a quick Google Search, and couldn't really find much for an ATL where Reagan didn't survive the Hinkley Assassination Attempt. Basically, the fact that Reagan even survived was down to pure luck. The Secret Service Agent who made the call to divert to the...
What's/where's the Facebook Page? When TBOverse went down last time, about a month ago, I tried to find the Facebook Page, but couldn't find it, hence my asking for a link.
I didn't include a different Democratic Candidate because I was focusing on as much as possible, regarding the election, staying the same, but with the POD of the USSR/Warsaw Pact still being around. As a result, I kept the Democrat as Bill Clinton, and kept Ross Perot as a 3rd Party Candidate...
Basically, if the Wall hadn't fallen in 1989, and the USSR hadn't followed in 1991, how would that have affected the 1992 US Presidential Election? Would Bill Clinton have still won, or would that have been the push that Bush needed to win?
I'm assuming most everything else happened the same...
First off, to be absolutely clear, I'm not interested and don't want any political sniping, by either side. Now, with it being the 20th Anniversary this year, I'm interested in your guys thoughts of what if Al Gore had won the US Presidency in 2000. As for the POD, it's actually very simple...
Firstly, I was basing the "idea" that the attacks may not be enough, on the "idea" that the "bigger attacks" in this "time line" were on the other side of the World, in very distant US Possessions, with at least one of them being already scheduled to become independent (of the US) after another...
While I doubt it actually happened, I could see Churchill "keeping quiet" if he knew ahead of time. Remember, while I don't have "hard numbers", there was a significant anti-war movement in the US, including in the US Congress, which would need to vote with, I think, a 2/3rd Majority of both...
Basically, as the Thread Title says it, what if Ronald Reagan wasn't elected to the Presidency in 1980, and how does that affect the Cold War? It could be that he loses to Carter in the Presidential Election, or he doesn't even run and/or win the 1980 Republican Primary. Who is likely to be...
While I'm not 100% sure, going by when I asked that question on Space Battles during the 2016 Election, when the polls were closer, while Gore would be "in the Office", it wouldn't be as President, it would be as Acting President, similar to when George W. Bush went in for a medical exam and...
For me, especially in the first couple of decades after WW2, I would expect both sides, but especially the USSR and the UK/France to be concerned about a re-militarization of Germany, especially if you didn't ban them from having any military or self-defense force. That was why I suggested in...
