  2. Can anyone recommend a good Australian republic timeline?

    I've heard that the republic referendum of 1999 is something of a cliche POD but I can't find any timelines about it anywhere.
  3. Feasibility check: Australia refuses to send troops to Iraq, leading to a diplomatic spat.

    The Iraq War would have gone on with or without Australia. What POD would have Australia stay out of the war? Would the ANZUS treaty survive or would the Americans not care? Would they kick us out of the F35 program? Would they call us mean names? Discuss.
  4. AHC: A Great Leap Forward that works.

    Any way China could industrialize without going pseudo-capitalist?
  5. Drakon Question

    If Gwen had won at the end of Drakon, would the Draka conquest be a brutal worldwide campaign of genocide or would they they try to keep casualties to a minimum? Being preservationists, the Draka wouldn't be too keen on nuking their new prize let alone killing all 6 billion potential serfs...
  6. All Hail Britannia

    PROLOGUE: Excerpt from Dr Clara Summers lecture on Britannian Historical Revisionism, 5/5/1901 ‘I mean the notion that the Celts of Britain somehow united under some kind of super king and then defeated Julius freaking Caesar is laughable. Caesar’s conquest of Britain amounted to him walking...
  7. AHC: The 13 commonwealths.

    Can anyone suggest a really good Draka timeline remake? I know its in here somewhere. I found the one by Straha but it mysteriously ends in 1938.
  9. Chuck's big mistake

    King Charles XII aka Karl XII aka Carolus Rex aka Sweden's Chuck Norris was a pretty interesting fella. Where did he go wrong? Obviously invading Russia wasn't his best idea but did he have another option? Could he have just sat in the Baltics, sucker punching Russian armies until Tsar Peter...
  10. Which is the best nazi victory timeline you've read?

    I know the topic has been done to death and most agree that Hitler was never really going to win. But which is the best Nazi victory timeline you've read?
  11. If Napoleon had sent in the Guard at Baradino

    1812 Napoleon, in a rare moment of simplicity, decided to take on the russian centre at the battle of baradino rather than his usual tactic of speed, shock and flanking attacks. Realising this was turning the battle into a bloody slogging match he sent in the Imperial Guard, the french...
  12. A Germania question:

    If Berlin was too squishy and swampy to support Hitler's victory arch, volkeshall and all the other cartoonishly oversized buildings he was planning, where else would he put it? This is assuming he won the war and could choose anywhere from Belgium to the Urals. Alternatively, can something...
  13. AHC: Perestroika that works

    So according to Naomi Klein, Gorbachev sought to move the USSR in a similar direction to the Nordic model, combining free markets with a social safety net—but while retaining public ownership of key sectors - ingredients that he believed would transform the USSR into "a socialist beacon for all...
  14. esoteric AHC: pom poms in 2014

    Have the QF 1 pounder 'pom pom' still in use by a major power in 2014...I mean the 37mm autocannon designed in 1890. What pom pom were you thinking of?
  15. Disaster at Corbie

    "First came the Greycoats to eat all my swine, Next came the Bluecoats to make my sons fight, Next came the Greencoats to make my wife whore, Next came the Browncoats to burn down my home. I have naught but my life, now come the Blackcoats to rob me of that." —Anonymous Poem from the Thirty...
  16. Alternate Thirty Years War idea

    Crossing of the Somme, August 5th 1636, Spanish cavalry arrive on time to slaughter the retreating french, killing 600. The Spanish and Holy Roman Imperial troops have lost just 35 men dead and 50 wounded. The joint Spanish-Imperial Army then marches on to besiege Corbie which falls to them...
  17. ANZUS break up in early 1973

    So I've been reading about Goff Whitlam and his response to the Christmas bombings/ Operation Linebacker in December 1972. Here's an article http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/features/whitlam-v-nixon/story-e6frg6z6-1226439818865 Looks like things got a bit tense there, with Nixon and...
  18. AH challenge:

    Make the 1960's cultural revolution never happen with a POD prior to 1947. What are you on about Chris? Well, the fallout games which i adore are set in a world where the counter culture never emerged. On the wiki it says the POD had to happen somewhere between 1945 and 1961 but the computer...

    Wednesday January 25, 1995 In the early hours of the morning a Russian radar station detected an unidentified object flying along an air corridor between the Minuteman III silos in North Dakota and Moscow. The rocket had appeared out of nowhere and soon reached an altitude of 1,453 km...
  20. The Golden State

    Hello! This is my first post so yeah, bear with me. I understand the science behind this one is pretty soft but I've given it a shot. If anyone wants to start a discussion in the other forum to help hammer the flaws in the timeline. Anyway, let me know what you think. The Golden State: Chapter...
