  1. Una diferente ‘Plus Ultra’ - the Avís-Trastámara Kings of All Spain and the Indies (Updated 12/27)

    Next time you bump a two day old thread and it gets reported you are sidelined for a week.
  2. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Actually, if they pull it off the Cabal will out Nazi the Nazi's. The bad part is that, unlike Hitler and his Band of Psychcopaths, the Cabal is infinitely patient and not run by a medium functioning sociopath who actually published TWO books detailing what he hoped to achieve. The Chinese...
  3. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Cabal were the "last man standing" in a multiple faction civil war that overcame China in the wake of the Pacific War. The WAllies, especially the United States, simply got fed up with the Nationalist government's incredible corruption and incompetence, had no ideological reason to support...
  4. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    No. See them as misguided, even brainwashed and deluded. There is little tolerance for efforts to spread the faith, but those that already exist are seen as having an illness that the Cabal's program will cure.
  5. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Correct. The Cabal sees ALL the ills that have befallen China for 500 years as being the fault of "the other". They see Han Chinese as first among Asian "races" but their plans are more focused on everyone who is NOT Asian (a group that used to, but increasingly does not, include the Indians)...
  6. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    A bio-weapons program doesn't have a huge visible footprint. It looks just like an other medical research facility.
  7. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    That is what the USSR had IOTL at the time of Stalingrad. Their "cavalry" actually WAS still cavalry, not armored cav. It was, in fact, just about when the "Planet" series of offensive began that the Red Army began to have decent motorization of its armored divisions (even then most of the...
  8. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    It's an interesting question. OTL is both better than the AANW T/L (the whole "Europe is actually prosperous" and 100 million or so folks didn't die, which is nice) and worse (thanks to the extensive use of nuclear power there is much less of an issue with climate change, nothing like APAQ...
  9. Ground effect cargo planes to avoid the U-boat threat?

    150,000 pounds including fuel, lubricants and crew. H-4 had a max weight of 400,000 pounds, empty weight was 250,000 pounds. Full load of fuel and lubricants (436 gallons or 3,270 pounds of engine oil alone) the estimated max payload was 130,000 pounds or 65 tons or less than 1/3 of the AN-225...
  10. Ground effect cargo planes to avoid the U-boat threat?

    Even the biggest aircraft (or ground effect hybrid) will pale compared to a cargo ship. A Liberty Ship had a deadweight (i.e. cargo capacity) of almost 11,000 tons. That means that one Liberty Ship could, on a single trip, carry 52 times the cargo of the modern AN-225 (and the -225 is a marvel...
  11. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    It was rebuilt in 1965-66 and rededicated by HM Elizabeth II on July 26, 1966. It had been damaged by Waffen SS troops during the Occupation, and was further defaced/damaged by non-government actors during the unrest surrounding the self determination debates for Nord-Pas-de-Calais. There is a...
  12. How lucky can the allies get in the early stages of the pacific war

    It is difficult to NOT have the WAllies get better luck than IOTL. EVERYTHING went the Japanese's way during the first few weeks of the war (about the biggest flies in the ointment being the Enterprise and Lexington not being in port on Dec. 7, and the American forces holding out into May in the...
  13. Give me all the information and statistics I need to prove that Japan cannot win WWII

    Have Japan send a significant ground force to France in 1916. That experience would beat the "we can overcome the enemy with better fighting spirit) crap out of them (just like it did to everyone else who fought on the Western Front). At least that version of the IJA wouldn't be a light...

  15. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Uh... Okay. See what I can do. Wow.
