  1. WI: Humphrey assassinated instead of RFK?

    No way Bobby - they hated each other. Probably a fillin like Symington - say LBJ agrees to run again and then loses by a landslide.
  2. AHC: Better Uboot as fast as possible

    You will not question the results, so it is possible, they were able to be at sea for 200 days and return home ... https://uboat.net/boats/patrols/patrol_4048.html https://uboat.net/boats/patrols/patrol_4103.html https://uboat.net/boats/patrols/patrol_4033.html
  3. WI: Nintendo and Microsoft team up for a sixth generation console

    Wonder if this means a bigger Tecmo ittl, one can stand alone or their merger with koei is more equal (rather koei just absorbing Tecmo). Still very nice games buddy
  4. WI: The Cold War goes Hot

    A good look at what a nuclear strike on America in 1983 would look like:

    AHC: Communist Ireland

    The Vatican as a communist state? The inquisition purging reactionary elements and the college of cardinals becoming the politburo. The Pope as General Secretary of the Catholic Peoples Union. The Jesuits as the enforcers of communist doctrine and running reeducation camps. Time to bring back...
  6. WI: Hitler dies in 1939 after invading Poland

    If only Elser had succeeded! I think Goering would have been willing to make peace.
  7. WI: Prussia storms Paris instead of sieging it in the Franco Prussian war

    Fortifications of Paris could be stormed. They ended up stormed in May 1871 by the very French army just beaten. So did the Germans consider trying what French ended up doing in May?

    Threadmarks: Information about crops not present OTL

    Halophyte Crops: Nipa (Distichlis palmeri): Originally endemic to the Cloudy River delta, nipa was domesticated sometime in the 8th century AD. While it grows best when irrigated with freshwater, and yields decrease with increasing salinity, cultivation is still practical with salinities up...

    WI: The Cold War goes Hot

    No one - and only because @kmmontandon beat me to the real answer.

  11. WI: The Cold War goes Hot

    The cockroaches.
  12. WI: The Cold War goes Hot

    If NATO and the WP nuke each other in 1983, you can pretty much render the whole northern hemisphere uninhabitable. Neither the US nor Russia will “win”. Both countries with take at least one warhead on every city with a population of 10,000+. Europe will cease to exist. The Southern...
  13. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I mean I'm kind of cheering for them, I almost feel something like this is necessary. But I'm worried about the horrible precedent of justified political violence for moral aims. Especially this stuff. Only possible in a time of radical war. Kind of wondering, what's the apprenticeship...
  14. WI: The Cold War goes Hot

    Most likely, yes. There are outlier scenarios, to be sure, where one or both sides manages to struggle on in the aftermath despite being deeply mauled (the so-called “Brokeback War” situation), but the most likely outcome is the destruction of central authority and disintegration of the USSR...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    There's also the fact that they're trying to hack in a enclosed space and under supervision. It's one thing to hack a MICKEY computer at the comfort of your home (which is fairly likely) to trying to do it in an internet cafe where security and guests can probably see you doing something shady...

    Osman Reborn; The Survival of Ottoman Democracy [An Ottoman TL set in the 1900s]

    Karl is his heir. Franz Ferdinand's marriage was morganatic and any children he may have are therefore outside the line of succession. As for the criticism against the Suleiman, I agree completely. Courageous class wasn't a good idea for the Royal Navy (they got the nicknames Outrageous...
