what if the bomber is damaged and manages a crash landing? Someting that leaves a fuselange all in one piece?

Ops! I trought that giving the allies A-bombs a year early was fantasy, but you obviously know better. I understand things went another way in real life, my ipothesis was about the germans suffering multiple nuclear hits and tring to repond in kind...

Bill... for the last time... 1) It is possible for a functioning A-bomb o survive the bomber to being taken down by A-A and 2) A submergible could deliver such a weapon under the asses of a lot of allied civilians. Here we are talking about the allies using weapons of mass destruction to...

Depending on the numbers you can get anyting from a complete unexploded design to only the smoking evidence that A-bombs are fasible...

Do I look like an idiot? The fact is, differently from Japan a year later, Germany had in 1944 a nuclear peoject (more than one to be precise) that coud use ideas from even an exploded bomb, had means to deliver a device to allied targhets and residual industrial capacity to even reproduce a...

they could as well use a dirty bomb on theyr V2 vectors... and if multipe A-bombs are used against german soil there is an increasing chace of one misdetonating basically giving the reich a free sample of nuclear device to be copied, after that how long will it take to a U-boat to deliver a nice...

You have to take in account the paranoia factor, if little boy failed to detonate there was no chance the japanese could make any use of it, on the other hand Germany '44 will have some use for such a device..

Quite difficult IMO, to get this far you need the soviets to actually liberate nothen Italy, basically getting rid of Italian Social Republic singlehandly... And even in this case southern Italy will end out being a sort of banana monarchy run by the mob... inverting the ditopian NK clichè

well orografy makes little sense, you have a river that gos fro a mountain to anther (top right of the continent) and rivers take normally a shother path to the coast, barring interposing hills/mountains...

the European Recovery Program was originally an offer extended to USSR too, with a POD dating 1947 joining it, I feel it will be possible for a mutual defence alliance to emerge from the ashes of WWII, butterfling the cold war altogether...

In the end the geopolitical map of Europe ends quite like the same, USSR will punish german creted puppets integrating more land in the union, Nuremberg Trials still happen but wile people are still put to death, there will be lot less shame in it...

Very true, I was thinking to an officer executing a desertor or a mutinee on the front, the same thing will not be acceptable, say, during peacetime... Generally if you got the time to organize a formal rial, you also get alternatives to execution.

As for the idea of killing anyone in any manner, we sink to, well, murder level. executing will be acceptable under live combat conditions, and only where you do actually apply the military codes of war (this will force anyone who want to start a war to actually declare formally said war)

OO all C: Ok basicly we have pretend to be AH enthusiasts living in a TL where "the Nazis won World War II", if you want said enthusiast to make a DBWI they have to petend things whent different in the TL they are simulating the title will have to be: DBWI: DBWI: What if the Nazis lose World...

Well the too ugly to breed keeps until culture starts to happen, after that estethics get more and more divorced from instincts (just wathc all forms of body modification) if 4 arms happens as a hereditable mutation artificial selection will do the rest... just as it happened with dogs. On the...

Thats why I will rather prefer to be subjected to the piston helmet model, with the additional twist that the sentence is declared executed in the moment said helmet is worn and the piston is activated by a timer randomly set to activate the piston in the next minute, the scare/revenge effect is...

The real problem with squishing is the total destruction of the body, a political sistem conditioned from the start by religious lobbyes (a.k.a. the United States) will never implement it, on the other hand nor the People Republic of China will do it since the executed body will be owned by the...

It depends, in a cold war scenario the U.S. will simply leave any ally against USSR do whatherver it wants and paint the situation as a necessary, lesser, evil...

not only Cobra, Joe ones too, I mean a maksmanship school in par with imperial one! That's why I figured no one was using live ammunition and veicles were designed to explode when hit by some sort of infrared signal, obviously giving the operator a warning and ample time to flee...

mumble... seeing the cartoons i always had the suspect that the whole Cobra thing was something staged up only to justifie crass military expenses by echonomic entities that profited by it... I mean, with all the firepower involved where were the casualties? The situation reminded me alot the...
