So, incidentally, has there ever been a good description of Amigo Alfarus anywhere in the thread? Because for want of one, I went poking around looking for someone who might look the part and ran into Eloy Alfaro, who's a little bit too old to be the young and radical Rodrigo Alvarez but has the...

Speaking of, I may as well chuck my hat into the ring there: I suspect if the Societists could see into our timeline they would look at OTL's communism as a complete validation of everything Pablo Sanchez ever said about class conflict. Communism was just as internationally-minded, just as...

So uh, guys? Sorry for the tangent, but I've been re-reading the volume and I'm pretty sure Timeline L discovered portal technology while we were distracted by Societism. The main things are the bits in the ads of one of the volumes - I can't remember which - where they advertise the Christmas...

There's a timeline I've been working on on-and-off for the past few years, based on the idea of a (relatively) stable Russian succession after Ivan IV. The problem was that I couldn't figure out the plausible path for events to follow; or, for that matter, nail down a PoD. As matters stand in...

The Raptor of Spain I'm undecided on this one. Time of Crows was probably my best so far, and I haven't done one of these in a while. That said... --- COMING 2016 A falcon flies over a bleak, sandy landscape. The camera follows it for a while, and after about 5 seconds it flies over a...

@The Vulture Thanks! Say, if you want I could make a trailer for The Revolution will be Live. I've been following it for a while, now, and it seems interesting...

All of which, of course, raises the question of where Amerizantium would be.

@Hotpoint That sounds really, really cool. I'd watch it Oh, and to stay on topic, have a Time of Crows trailer --- THIS TRAILER HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR THOSE 18 AND OLDER COMING 2013 A young, Hispanic woman is sitting in a psychiatrist’s office in a mental health institute. She is...

@Caliboy A trailer for a sequel? Hmm, looks like it could be interesting. What would the overall plot be? Oh, and another thing - that trailer I was working on for LTTW will take a while longer, due to real life intervening to some degree. I'll try to have it up within the next half hour...

Thanks! Working on one for Look to the West right now, and it should be up within the hour

Decades of Darkness I think this is the right place... --- COMING 2012 The first verse of “America the Beautiful” playing over a black background. Gold letters appear on the screen. A woman’s voice narrates. It was never certain how things would end SMASH CUT TO...

What if the 1881 assasination of Alexander II failed, and the conspirators were arrested?

In addition to Macedon never conquering Greece, it could also have other interesting implications. For instance, assuming he survives long enough Phillip may have sought Epaminondas as a tutor for Alexander. It's unlikely, but could have far-reaching implications
