  1. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    There is another site I visit where an Australian A-4 pilot who flew off the Melbourne during the Vietnam War is a frequent contributor. The big problem for the Argentine carrier was the poor state of her engines. She couldn't steam fast enough to generate sufficient wind over the deck, to...
  2. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    I wouldn't say the lack of Celtic loans is evidence for violence, but rather is evidence for a non-gradual transition, which does indeed support conquest, but doesn't inform directly the level of violence involved rather it informs about a more abstract level of cultural dominance. I mean if...
  3. The Last Hanover: The Life and Reign of Queen Charlotte

    I may need to revisit my previous guess at the order of the monarchs with some of these lovely reveals.
  4. Alternate Weapons of War thread...

    For proper japanese WWII designs, need more torpedo launchers. :winkytongue:
  5. Challange: Prague Spring

    I'm not sure that's an entirely true view that the Czech party and proletariat had, but I understand why they had it. Historically until the night of 4 November Pal Maleter was gaining dominance as a revolutionary, pro-civil government, "socialistically agnostic," communist military leader...
  6. Photos from 1983: Doomsday

    Replicas of the Famous London Bridge and Tower Bridge that were built in Port Alfred, New Britain.
  7. Challange: Prague Spring

    ...) These councils, under a pushed 1968, will further cement control against the interests of *all* party members other than their interests as workers themselves. Those interests are not going to be for a liberal restoration of private capitalism. They are going to be for workers control...
  8. WI: Canada accepts Article Eleven and joins the United States?

    What long list of grievances did Canadians have with the Americans in 1775/76? Since Quebec wanted independence, which was fine with the Patriots why would that turn France away from the American cause?
  9. TL-191: After the End

    Unfortunately those kinds of people do exist in TTL. In the USA, these people tend to be very marginalized, given that most of the people who engage in the denial of the Destruction also tend to be apologists for Featherston and the Freedom Party-ruled CSA. While it technically isn’t illegal in...
  10. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    ...sides had got out of control. So the UK government suspended the operation of Stormont and took direct control of the territory's administration.* The POD is that rather than grumbling but acquiescing in this move, the Stormont leaders declare UDI. And whip up a campaign of intimidation to...
  11. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    Britain was not thriving at all when the Romans left, it essentially collapsed quickly compared to other western Roman lands. Where is the actual evidence of this? It would only appear as such if you started from a premise and tried to justify it, but to me it's seems rather clear that the...
  12. TL-191: After the End

    There were efforts by the US government in TTL to encourage outsiders to move to the former CSA, including encouraging new immigrants. Later in the 20th Century, the various state governments of the Midsouth (the former CSA minus Sonora, Chihuahua, and Cuba) also attempted to attract new...
  13. Vainglory and death: Kurita continues

    The invasion had started 5 days before, and most of the ships had been off loaded. With a warning that Kurita's fleet was approaching, all remaining ships would weigh anchor, and flee. Oldendorf's battleships were heading north, and the result would be a big surface battle late that afternoon...
  14. How would a presidency of Lyndon Larouche look like?

    Thank whichever G-d you believe in (or the Owl of Minerva, if that's more your bag) that this never happened! LaRouche was seriously bad news, like if Jim Jones had had an entree to the Reagan White House. . . Anyway, here's an amusing anecdote (which I did not write, all credit goes to the...
  15. Feeble Constitution - A Red-and-Green Russia 1917 Timeline

    I can totally relate to this problem. As for the military situation on the ground: The going had gone very well for the Saudis for quite a while. Now, they've hit a wall and the tide is turning. I've made a very rough GIF map showing everything from the status quo ante bellum over the conquest...
  16. WI Hitler Wrote a More Readable Book Than Mein Kampf?

    With apologies to Eric Carle The Very Hungry Hitler On Monday he ate through the Rhineland - but he was still hungry On Tuesday he ate through Austria and Sudetenland - but he was still hungry On Wednesday he ate through Czechoslovakia, Poland and Norway - but he was still hungry On...

  18. Britain colonized

    Obviously not in the sense that it happened to change the whole continent as with the Americas & Australia, but Ireland, Novorossiya, the Urals (i.e. the Golden Horde-areas) & the Sami areas of Norway-Sweden would be four examples of colonization happening in Europe after 1500. Depending on our...
  19. Photos from World War Z

    A Pre-War aerial photograph of Hashima Island (Aka Gunkanjima Island) near Nagasaki, Japan, despite being abandoned since 1974, it became some what of an unoffical safe zone as many Japanese fled to the island as well as the other uninhabited islands of Japan. Despite being only 9 miles from...
