  1. WI: Ludendorff Killed/Dies on Armistice Day, 1918

    This is inspired by the rather zany penultimate battle of Wonder Woman, wherein she slays a super-powered General Ludendorff (!!!), believing him to be Hades in disguise. Obviously, if I were doing that premise it'd land this in ASB territory, but I was thinking what the repercussions would be...
  2. AHC: "Maginot Line was a Failure" does not become a Pop History Trope

    I think one of the big things about WWII history I've learned from being on this forum is how much of an undeserved bad rep the Maginot Line gets. The assumption seems to be that the French intended the German offensive to crash against their defenses and were gobsmacked when they simply...
  3. How Probable is a Conservative, Nationalist US Democratic Party in a Southern Victory TL

    Been sort of reflecting a bit on the AH works I've read, and probably the biggest work I've completed was Turtledove's Southern Victory series.

  4. WI: Japan sides with Central Powers

With the PoD being a Russian victory in the Russo-Japanese War, is it possible that Japan, humiliated and (I would assume) side-lined by Anglo-Russian reproachment over the growing German/Austro-Hungarian threat, would side with the Central Powers? Could Japanese...
  5. WI: W. European Colonization of Far East Northern Asia?

    This idea comes from the PS2 game Warship Gunner 2, and while I think the specifics in the game are off, the general idea I think is intriguing. In the game, they explain Nordic Colonization of the Siberian Taiga around the Sea of Okhotsk/Sakhalin Island by a Danish tribe called the Wilks (when...
  6. Could/Should the CSA have Industrialized (Given an ACW victory)?

    This popped into my mind the other day as I read over some TL-191 thread. Reminded me of how Longstreet, in the novels, began the progressive emancipation of slaves in the 1880s as a means to prepare the CSA for industrialization, and indeed by WWI/WWII the Confederacy seemed to have a decent...
