  1. The Whale has Wings

    Wonderful TL so far Astrodragon, it seems the RN is in much better shape then OTL allowing it to deal with the competing demands of the three theaters it will soon find itself fighting in. A couple questions, firstly will see any CVE or CVL for the RCN? It will be expanding furiously as OTL to...
  2. Pacific War Redux

    Just finished catching up, I've been enjoying this timeline immensely. What I really like is the defense of Singapore ITL. Instead of the greatest defeat in the history of British Arms, hopefully we'll see a stand in the tradition of Rorke's Drift.
  3. A Better Show in 1940

    Superbly written timeline Michele, These losses are not making it look easy for the Germans. With their supply situation looking grim and Regular Army elements moving to contact the Germans in Britain are going to be in for a tough fight. The losses the RN is inflicting are bad, but if there's...
  4. N/A

    All fair points. However I would counter that Catholicism of the region is an obstacle to greater British political control, and informal Empire being cheaper to maintain and no power within the hemisphere challenging the British position(OTL US) the South American states would become...
  5. Nonsuch Luck: Anglo-Dutch Union?

    Ah, I was going under the impression of a personal union between the Dutch and English crowns. The problem with James was that he was a very pro peace type, atleast OTL maybe different if England has been locked in a struggle with the Dutch versus the evil Catholic Spanish:p. As well OTL he...
  6. What if the British 1st Division recieved relief at Arnhem?

    No matter what the allies do in fall 1944 the problem of supplies still exists. The failure to capture an intact Channel Port or promptly clear the Scheldt to make Antwerp usable means supply problems persist as everything is trucked in from Normandy. The allies had to choose between supplying...
  7. Nonsuch Luck: Anglo-Dutch Union?

    What happens when Elizabeth dies childless and the English heir is King of Scotland?
  8. N/A

    Interesting timeline. My one critique would be British involvement in South America extending to formal control as it seems it has in your tl. OTL Britain was more then happy to economically control the South America states, rather then increasing formal control. With Britain paramount after...
  9. An Unfortunate Event: The Trent War

    Fascinating timeline, Nice to see Kingston get involved in the ACW. Since the RN is one of my favorite areas of history I have a couple questions. Will we see any RN ships fighting on the American rivers? Also will the British command of the seas free CSA garrisons from Coastal forts and...
