  1. Reagan’s reputation on economic issues if no assassination attempt?

    His policies weren't evil... If you seriously think it's evil you really need to read up what has happened the last 120 years again.
  2. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Personally i love this one - Every other instance of terror bombing haven't worked, but this one would. Yeah, but with no eastern front, Germany's position won't be anywhere near as bad as Japan's. So you mean it will be a question of terms then? What terms would be acceptable? Because the...

    An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    In my opinion, it's very likely that the Romans will have northern Mesopotamia centered around Mepsila/Mosul while the Persians retain the south around Basra for the sake of peace. To be honest, taking the Levant back and restoring the Pentarchy would've made Odysseus a hero in the eyes of the...

    Marlborough (1970) - An epic biopic on the life of Sir John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, from his betrayal of King James II during the Glorious Revolution, his legendary victories at Blenheim, Ramillies, and Oudenarne, stalemate at Malpaquet, and final controversial years. Directed by...
  5. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    you can argue that the macedonian dynasty was on the way and in certian matters achieved stable succesion by been realted to the rulling dynasty and it took the worst roman emperors ever and the dynasty to die out to make things bad . not all the time but there are notable sucessful examples ...
  6. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I'd like to see a Bob Dole/John McCain ticket. I feel like if Jay Ward dies then Tiffany Ward could sell out to Disney, Westinghouse, Metromedia, Turner, Bally, Warner, or MCA.
  7. How would RFK handle Vietnam if he won in 1968, in your own personal opinion?

    RFK was antiwar by 1968. Earlier he had been a firm supporter of the war so he had an unclean hands problem. I doubt he would have made much progress in the Paris peace talks so it would all come down to "Vietnamization". My best guess is that it would not have been appreciably faster under...
  8. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    Honestly, I forgot Scotland was there, but they're playing a smart game here, especially if they have some "extra" parts of the deal they aren't telling both sides, getting a bigger share of the cake if you will.
  9. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    We saw a model of it in a previous episode, and there was a shot of it in the hangar. The launch of Soyuz could have be a lie to put the Americans at ease, Margo's Russian friend seemed to be nervous and hesitant to say they launched. Would the US be able to detect the launch of Soyuz before...
  10. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Pretty much, I mean the UK is going to have to utterly gut the RUC, end the Special Branch, maybe disband the Ulster units (depending on what they've been up to during this time of course), root and branch reform of Stormont... Maybe having to get the Republic involved in someway (though this is...
  11. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Okay, so how much Oil was added by doing operation barbarossa? That number is negative - and if it is negative, which it is, They will have more oil. They will also import more oil. But apparently, millions of men not deployed or dead in the east, and consequently millions of more man hours...

  13. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    On a related note, after digging through a few books on the decision making process for Barbarossa I think it's actually questionable whether Goering would decide against launching Barbarossa. It's important to remember that IOTL Hitler also flip-flopped throughout Summer-Fall 1940 about...

    A Time For Greatness: The Alternate Presidency of John F. Kennedy and beyond

    Superb speech there @PickledFish - very well crafted. Hopefully JFK can get gender equality in there somehow. "...to embarrass the South" - the fact you are horrible racist dinosaurs perhaps is embarrassing enough.... Glad Mercury is going well. Now about those female astronauts NASA...

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Yeah, that's kinda the rub of it. I wouldn't wanna move back and risk a repeat a few years down the line. Much less given the discrimination and such they faced before, let alone the violence.

    Threadmarks: World League Quarter-Finals (second leg) 20-21

    ...from which the Czechs snatched a draw and qualified for the next round, where they'd face Australia. Uruguay on the other hand would go against the DR Congo to get a shot at their first World League title. *DRC wins 3-2 on agg. Uruguayan players celebrate qualifying for the Semi-Finals
  17. How would RFK handle Vietnam if he won in 1968, in your own personal opinion?

    From what I recall RFK did not support unilateral withdrawal; he wanted to find a peace settlement between the South and North.

  20. WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    plenty of land restricted by the proclamation. I think the southern colonies still had land left in the outlines of modern state maps. The northern states, particularly the Northeast, were not flush with cheap available land. The Proclamation Line more or less delineated developed vs...
