  1. WI: Mohandas 'Mahatma' Gandhi converted to Christianity?

    Mahatma Gandhi is as much of a myth as he is a legend. Of course i do not deny that his political leadership was critical in helping transform the Indian freedom struggle from a thought experiment of the educated elite into a pacifist mass movement on a scale never before seen and involving...
  2. The Delhi Rajya: The Proud and Pure Army

    Subscribed! :D
  3. A Storm of Steel and Fire (an alternate WW2 history)

    Egypt... always the first domino in the middle east ala arab spring. Yeah i think you are right Tanner in having a arab rebellion in the middle east. It will, at the very least, make things much more interesting. And in case you misread my previous post i was agreeing with you about the...
  4. A Storm of Steel and Fire (an alternate WW2 history)

    There is only one word to describe this update... badass! total badass! About the immunity thing which a few people might raise an issue with. Well back in the 40s medicine was based upon a few assumptions with regards to race, like the differences in the physiology and hence immunity of the...
  5. Lenin Lives (much) Longer

    Actually while the NEP would make the economy much stronger it wouldn't necessarily translate into a larger Heavy Industrial base. So its effect may or may not have been beneficial in the upcoming war. Lenin if i am not mistaken wanted to spread the revolution to other naitons. That may have...
  6. A Storm of Steel and Fire (an alternate WW2 history)

    ... and when said defense of moscow fails due to Stalin strategic incompetence, and Stalin lies dead on the frozen ground Beria will try to usurp power in the rump Soviet Union now limited to beyond the Urals. Zhukov, who can also be sent to the far-east front to fight Japs, while...

    Brilliant TL Tanner! I really like the way you balance out all the sides in the war with neither side getting wanked nor nerfed. Its just awesome watching a TL work so good. This is now my favorite WW2 TL! :D
  8. Me 262 at Normandy

    Me-262s had issues at low speeds so i guess they would be mostly used for boom & zoom bomber interceptor roles. And also there was the issue of how many of these birds would be in the air. I mean a squadron or 2 by d-day probably won't make a difference in the end but a couple of dozen...
  9. Fairey Delta 2

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairey_Delta_2 For those who are confused by the thread title... no offense TubeAlloys. BTW the FD2 was not designed to ever be capable of housing weapon systems, missiles were on the verge of becoming mainstream but afaik most fighters then used guns and the...
  10. WI: Imperial Iran Goes Rogue

    Well if that was Iranian military strength by '85 then you pretty much butterflied away any adventurism on Saddam's part, including the Iran-Iraq war. Maybe it does happen, but it results in Iraq getting pwned instead of the bloody stalemate. I wonder what can lead to a Iran-Iraq war in this TL...
  11. A Storm of Steel and Fire (an alternate WW2 history)

    @katchen Its very unlikely that Japan will be able to bar the panama canal. ITTL they already stretched out trying to capture hawaii. Besides the Philippines won't be a cakewalk either. So yeah most likely they will invade Hawaii hold on for a few months and then get kicked out by the...
