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

    Very true, but it is clear Eisner is still making decisions on the show (vetoing the Pak Protector, doubtless others that weren't mentioned) and he definitely was not doing anything in good faith. Absolutely the execution and the in-series changes amde by the show runner matter and in the long...
  2. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Germany would have fuel shortages even without a war with the USSR. I’d suggest reading the many numbers cited on fuel in this thread - Germany’s oil officials were quite clear that fuel reserves would be exhausted by 1943 without serious cuts. Pilot training schools had very little political...
  3. Q-Bam Historical Map Thread

    If you mean the Green, those are Saxons. If you mean the blue, those are Bavarians. The Thuringii have been absorbed into the Frankish state by now. And yeah they are, the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes migrated in waves but never fully left, at least until the Jutes and Angles disappeared as a...

    How far does Communism spread if the US is disinterested?

    Allende´s policies were not disastrous, they account to and increse in the GDP of around 40% of the GPD in the 3 year of his mandate, the point was more of these increment ended in the hands of the workers instead of the Traditional Chilean´s elites and International Corporations, wich pissed...

    Threadmarks: Story 2562

    Omaha Beach, May 17, 1944 The assault cargo ship killed her engines. She was tucked in between the sunken battleships that had formed a breakwater and the beach that by now no longer was under consistent fire by the Germans. The last observers had been killed or captured the night before and...

    AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    The Russians have to be competent. With Stalin alive and in play from 1938-1943 that is not going to happen at all.
  7. AHC make it hard to colonize North America

    Well, I've seen people argue convincingly that some North American species could have be dommesticated (bison, deer, etc.). I have also seen it convincingly argued that while beast of burdens are good to have, they are by no means a prerequisite for large and complex civilizations. Moreover, I...
  8. Texas Two-Step: Nixon nominates Connally as VP in 1973

    What does everyone think about Charles Percy as a potential VP choice?
  9. Umayyads manage to take Rome and Constantinople. Could the Umayyads take the title of Roman emperor

    I don't think it was quite that simple. Suleiman had a quadruple crowned tiara crafted to show his superiority over the Papacy and for quite a long time, the Ottomans refused to recognize the Habsburgs as Roman Emperors, or Emperors at all. This goes back to the old discussion of what the title...
  10. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2
    Threadmarks: Story 2561

    Near Caen, May 16, 1944 The Canadian brigade had dug in on the ridge near the city. At least two full strength German infantry regiments were in the city and a pair of first rate divisions were holding the eastern flank guarding the road nexus that was needed to either hold the Allies in...

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

    To be fair Creatureworks will be doing the same in Space Police.

    AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    What about the scenario specifically is something that Stalin wouldn’t do?
  13. List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    Oh interesting I didn't know that. That'll be fun to see.
  14. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    What about the death Cosmonaut, also we do not know what will happen in episode 10.
  15. Ulyanovsk

    AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    Certainly past OTL 1941/42, I think the division of Germany is set in stone and a completely botched D-Day isn’t going to do much to help, but I do think with a PoD early enough you could achieve it. The Soviets didn’t get an occupation zone for Italy or Japan, and if we have a PoD where they’re...
  16. List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    Christine will go in England as Elisabeth was already engaged in Savoy (to Christine‘s OTL husband)
  17. If You Can Keep It: A Revolutionary Timeline

    Liking this so far. Watched.
  18. Lusitania

    AHC make it hard to colonize North America

    The problem is that NA has no draft or other types of animals. The Maiyan, Inca and Aztec were advanced civilization but all lacked the technology and animal husbandry to create the right circumstances to survive. I just see this as another empire like Aztec or Inca waiting to be decimated by...
  19. Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    Even today, there still people worried about it.People don't think wholly rationally about this sort of thing. There's been enough near misses over the course of that 60 years, some by complete accident that being a bit worried isn't without justification
  20. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    He may be exaggerating things "just a bit" for the entertainment value. ;) And yes, while "Rubber Forehead Aliens" are one of those things that's kind of an "acceptable break from reality", even the most seasoned Trekker must sigh when they visit "this week's all new alien species" and...OMG...
