  1. Tank Doctrine of a Surviving Confederacy

    Import and liscence. Christie rip-offs, improved BT7's and T28's/T35's at least on par with Stuarts and Grants. The heavies for infantry support and the lights for pursuit with French halftrack designs for mobile infantry. A 'proto-blitzkrieg' doctrine applied differently by different...
  2. Challenge: name an airplane uglier than the Lloyd Luftkreuzer

    Only ugly to those on the receiving end.
  3. Challenge: name an airplane uglier than the Lloyd Luftkreuzer

    The designer decided to 'wing it'. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!….I'm on meds...
  4. Challenge: name an airplane uglier than the Lloyd Luftkreuzer

    This flew and flew well, their was prejudice against it but it made it to recon squadrons albeit limitedly.

  6. Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 2

    Things I'd like to see M24/M41 SS-11 ATGM vehicle M24 with Sheridan style turret, lighter gun Gamma Gpoat style armored car with SS-11 [n rear section and Commando V150 turret in the front 'Easy Eight' chassied APC Saladin AC with different turrets T-55-NATO post WWIII hybrids Guntrucked...
  7. Alternate History Combat Aircraft

    Add Sanger's orbital plane and you have a Foo-Fighter Mothership-Buster.
  8. Alternate History Combat Aircraft

    Now I can have the Flying Tigers with Madam Chiang's 'Soaring Dragons' squadrons. She was Secretary-General of Aeronautical Affairs and convinced Dr. Fu Manchu to head R&D.
  9. Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 2

    The Time line is 1946-1973(Space 1959)-the French had a mortar system on their armored cars. I ramped up the R&D and had certain tech appear sooner. The M60a2 Starship actually works!
  10. Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 2

    Hello again, just starting to catch up. You guys amaze me. I'm working on a few timelines(Space 1939, Twilight 1946, Space 1959) and need ideas/visualisations if these appeal to you: For Space:1939 a hybrid/Lend Lease vehicle: T-35 with a M8 Stuart open-topped 75mm howitzer turret center, two...
  11. Alternate History Combat Aircraft

    I had read that it had the potential to be a better success at higher altitudes and with its weapon pack would think it was camparable at least.
  12. Alternate History Combat Aircraft

    Could the P-39 series be the 'Mig15' of WWII if they were fitted with turbochargers like they were supposed to have been?
  13. WI: Modern Crimson Skies

    More martial. They control their territories-almost independent. If still part of the US, they would have all the benefits of the Constitution without the obligations. Larger cultural resurgance with practical modernisation. They control resources on their land, casinos and theme parks which are...
  14. WI: Modern Crimson Skies

    Have that be the intro to the first of a trilogy of Crimson Skies games set in a North America over the course of a WWII analogue. Fictional and realife characters mingle, nations rise and fall, and your choices and actions... and whom you side with - will choose the fate of North America by the...
  15. WI: Stalin never recovers

    Stalin not recovering would discredit the Communist Party. Stavka would take over while the government reforms. The military would execute Beria in revenge for the '38 purge. In the confusion, I doubt the factories would be dismantled in time and moved eastwards. The rallying cry would still be...
