  1. How would Kennedy, Khrushchev, and their governments be remembered if the CMC went hot?

    ...with the bomber force, almost unbelievably vulnerable to counterforce. Any Soviet Tu-95 that actually made it into the air (good luck with that*) would have faced enormous odds to make any sort of successful attacks, especially in the face of nuclear armed Nike SAM and Genie nuclear tipped...
  2. If not Russia what would have been the most likely state to have been the first to turn communist?

    Germany (where Karl Marx was born) POD .... Both the French and Imperial Russian Army, having overcome mutines in their ranks, continue to press the Germans hard from both east and west. Despite the almost contineoues use of gas, the trenchs are holding. In Britain, the War Ministry has...
  3. Imperial Cult remains Rome's official Religion

    Roman Paganism was already on life support several decades prior to Constantine. The Mystery Cults of Cybele, Isis, Mithras, and the rising faith of Christianity had superseded the Gods of Caesar and the Imperial Cult, which had failed to regain any support, even with Gallienus' endorsement of...
  4. Images from Stupid Luck & Happenstance

    The latest vehicle by royal warrant holder Mercedes-Benz.
  5. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    As @Goldensilver81 pointed out, there were long ruling dynasties and they still were overthrown, so no chain of successful emperors really grants any immunity from this. The precedent has been set and repeated too many times of an ambitious person supplanting an unpopular emperor. In order to...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Huh? I don’t know what you are referring to tbh.
  7. WI: HRE Matthias has a son

    I'd tend to think that the bigger problem will be convincing the Catholics. I think if young Max is elected King of Bohemia and Hungary it can only be with the approval/cooperation of the Protestants in the Estates of those Kingdoms. So that should allay the fears of the Protestant Electors in...
  8. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    The .280 British seems to have today's equivalent in the 7mm Valkyre; forum.
  9. An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    A small price to pay for Jerusalem.
  10. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Hmm... "The bastard, the bastard! Faulkner's words rang around the cabinet room at Stormont. He had just heard that piece of fucking shit Paisley announce on BBC Radio Ulster being cheered to the rafters by nationalists after he and his church had stepped in to protect Catholics from loyalists...
  11. 1933 RLM heavy fighter split into a long range fighter and an AT CAS plane

    In OTL the RLM requested the following in 1933: Rüstungsflugzeug I for a multi-seat medium bomber Rüstungsflugzeug II for a tactical bomber Rüstungsflugzeug III for a single-seat fighter Rüstungsflugzeug IV for a two-seat heavy fighter ITTL flugzeug IV is split into a long range heavily armed...
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I'd say Walt Becker, Matthew Vaughn, and Kurt Wimmer. Those three plus Tommy Wiseau should round it out. Plus Michael Bay of course. If he can get a course in the importance of story rather than just as an excuse for more explosions.
  13. Beforeigners ( Fremvandrerne ) HBO Europe Series

    I have access to this and have watched the 1st episode. I like it although its feel is a little different from a standard American series. Also where is it set -Norway ?
  14. AHC: Harold Stassen elected President in 1980

    interesting scenario what would President Stassen's legacy be?
  15. Nerdman3000

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

    Maybe it’s just me, but this Ringworld show kind of somewhat almost reminds me a bit of OTL Firefly. I kind of wonder if that means Firefly will itself get butterflied away ITTL due to being perhaps too similar in concept. Perhaps Josh Whedon does the Ringworld reboot ITTL, which has some of the...
  16. Portuguese Cabo- a TL

    We shall see. At the moment, I can't see why would they get maize from Portuguese before OTL. But, who knows.
  17. If not Russia what would have been the most likely state to have been the first to turn communist?

    I was also thinking of Germany in the aftermath of a more crushing defeat in WW1. Maybe no Russian Revolution and Plan 1919 sees the Entente cross the Rhine then. No "Backstab" legend to rally workers but the blame placed wholly on the Junkers and factory bosses. Edited for typo
