  1. The Cuban Missile War Timeline

    I would think North Korea would conquer the south. I mean, they hadn't split with the Chinese Communists so much, they were sort of allies, and spreading communism, making it so that SK couldn't go to the side of Japan once it got back on its feet, would be part of China's agenda. So: short...
  2. The Cuban Missile War Timeline

    Amerigo, since you're on right now, what about North Korea? I'm interested in that part of the world.
  3. 2007 Turtledove Award Nominations are nearing the end...

    Shoot. Another year, another realization of lack of preparation for this contest, another period when I'm completely ignored...
  4. The Cuban Missile War Timeline

    Also: what does North Korea do? That could be interesting.
  5. The Cuban Missile War Timeline

    Wow. Fantastically awesome, Amerigo. A real work of art here. This was probably very difficult to write, so many complexities, but you pulled it off in one action-packed installment. Magnificent job. Ridiculously excellent read. :D
  6. Historia Mundi Create-a-Religion Contest

    Dang, thats detailed sunsurf! Here I go: A man was brought into the house, his tunic torn, a slash-mark at his chest wept blood, his face and arms and legs dirtied with soot. His feet, bleeding and broken. Many gathered at the doors and windows. What had attacked him? What could have possibly...
  7. Historia Mundi

    Wow! Really, really good stuff here Dom, it is getting very interesting, not that it wasn't interesting before. I like the set-up you are building. Good job. Mind including some CE in their? I always forget how far back 0 AUC was, 753 BCE is my guess.
  8. Why a Famous Counterfactual Historian Loves Making History With Games

    Oh, come on, its fun to think that its possible. Got the game. Making History is quite awesome. It does not confine you to Europe, you get to play around with the whole world. Kind of cool because you can trade, negotiate, form alliances, with every single other nation. Really fun, but I still...

    Can't wait to get those, man!

    At what time period is this?

    I don't think they would have shot the kids. They are kids! Hell, if they were adults the snipers wouldn't kill them. 1) The snipers are human. 2) The Infected have died out six months ago, and it looks like they won't be coming back. What stringent policies there are are just for precaution...
  14. Kerensky's Russia

    Its all about Kornilov. Make it so that he doesn't try and stage a coup. Kerensky never frees the Bolshevik leaders from prison, never gives them guns in order to defend the city. The revolution is never led by the Bolsheviks, Kerensky continues to rise.
  15. Arab Independence: Rough TL

    I have to echo VoCSe, here, Russian history 1905-1925 is my specialty, and in 1912 nothing that you have described would have triggered a revolution. The revolution had been quashed, the Tsar had tricked the populace for a short while, quieting them with the promise of a functional Duma, only to...
  16. Challenge: The Mormon Empire

    In my ATL, Sidney, the Republic of Deseret takes California, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, parts of Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, parts of Sonora and Baja California, and a good portion of Idaho and Oregon. Beat that.
  17. Fighting with 2 swords

    Maybe Monastic Orders gain a martial, Asian influence. Boys are taken by the young age of six to be trained as super-awesome ninja/monk/swordsmen. They are trained to hold two broadswords, one in each hand, and they are strong enough to do so.
  18. Romania in a CP-victorious world...

    If its before 1917, it remains as it was, but would probably quickly fall to Austro-Hungarian influence, unless it creates an alliance with Bulgaria and perhaps tries to influence a German puppet Ukraine.

    Well, I don't think they found many of those immune. Of the survivors they located, she had to be one of very few. In fact, perhaps it is a trait only carried by her line. You would think it would have showed up earlier, eh? Since I predict a survivor population across the island of say, 300,000...

    CalBear, the infected cannot eat. They die of starvation pretty quickly. It is shown at Days that the infected are at the end of their cycle. Furthermore, no one is 'potentially infected'. If you are infected, you turn into a rager within ten and twenty seconds. All the military needs to do is...
