Ah, you're right on Clontarf, got my dates mixed up, but didn't Scotland include Cumbria for long periods of the late Dark Ages/early Middle Ages ?

I have absolutely no idea what Ebionite is, i know Miaphysite is Christian but what the difference between it & other forms are… ?

1. Williams the Conqueror & the Lion make alliance & Harald is attacked from 2 directions. 4. Harald burns William's ships & crosses over to raid Normandy.

A Scotland that retains most of Northern England ? Brian Boru or his son survive Clontarf & cement some sort of central authority ? Lots of potential alternative futures here.

I remember a lecture i attended in 1985. An army officer was telling us that as shore based naval personnel, in the event of war with the Warsaw Pact, as well as providing security for naval installations we could be tasked with protecting infrastructure such as bridges etc from attacks by...

Ehhh… let me the first of many to say, sorry but the USA was ahead in none of these things, only in industrial potential. ASW & radar came from the UK, plus the idea & initial work on nukes. Tactics, both on land & on sea, the hard lessons where learnt by the Brits & eventually, against much...

Found this while looking around the newly formatted site, good stuff, keep it going. I see we have the same signature, if spelt a little different. Were you once part of Tribe division, HMS Fisgard ?

Well pdf27 has been, in his "A Blunted Sickle" TL, plotting effects & butterflies through to the 1960's. It would be perhaps too much to hope that this comparable TL might also continue ad infinitum. ;)

:) Glad to see this TL alive & kicking again. Good, well researched & believable work. Thanks.

Maybe a bit out of your field of expertise but how goes the development of penicillin ?

Great opdate… s**t is happening, mechanised warfare without the blitzkrieg effect, would be quite horrific in reality, post war there's gonna be a lot of shell shock/PTSD casualties, on all sides. Good to hear that the WWW (wonderful world of work ) issues are looking positive, what we all need...

Interesting, more coming ?

Looks interesting, a little known area of history for most i would dare to say. You should maybe be aware that a problem some people have with trying to read Arab histories is that, similarly to reading Medieval European history, trying to keep track of who is who through the myriad...

I really really hope that this doesn't mean that the Hawker Hunter is butterflied away. That would be unforgivable. A world without this beautiful aircraft is a dull, grey, joyless world.

LW bombers release bombs over London by mistake. Churchill orders retaliation raid on Berlin. Hitler orders retaliation bombing campaign. Dowding's airfields get a much needed chance to recover. OK, probably not a war changing butterfly but pretty significant all the same, & a good example...

Best wishes for the author, i'm sure i speak for many when i say that i hope things come good for you & that you will find the time and inspiration to resume writing this excellent story.

LOL :D, or just mix it in hush-hush with the beef

Ah so you prefer optimism to realism :cool:

Nearly happened Now the sources are lost in the mists of time but i'm pretty sure a Greek submarine had the Turkish invasion fleet targeted but the captain was ordered by Athens not to fire because when it came to the point of actually starting a war then the Greek military government suddenly...

WOW Hi, finally caught up to the current events, what a wonderful TL, that so much change could result from 1 butterfly, WOW, my congratulations on such a well thought out & researched scenario & also my deep appreciation for the amount of work you have put into it. Please remind me, which...
