  1. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Hunting raiders does not need a CV. More to the point it does not need the investment level of a CV and its Air Group and its escort group. The biggest issue is to find them in the first place so two decks are better than one. I can see thought about a lightweight CV pre war but suspect it would...
  2. If not Russia what would have been the most likely state to have been the first to turn communist?

    Russia was probably near last on the list of countries Karl Mark likely saw as the first to undergo a communist revolution. If Russia had not been that country who would have been the most likely candidates? This can assume perhaps the Russian monarchy made some smarter choices and the...
  3. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    When I think of people I'm not talking to that the UK I'm just talking anywhere it's like people in America thinking all Europeans are the same. Or someone glassine Asians as just Asians. Asian and Europeans are not a United ethnic group. The West has no been United since the fall of the...
  4. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    I think that all of those groups would be larger in a TL like this than OTL. But I would say that the tactical example of Leninism is going to be hard to refute. If you look at Blanqui as sort of a French forerunner to Lenin, then I think that the Blanquists (or Blanquist-Leninists, as it might...
  5. WI Hitler Wrote a More Readable Book Than Mein Kampf?

    Mein Kampf unfortunately was and still is pretty widely read.
  6. Texas Two-Step: Nixon nominates Connally as VP in 1973

    Impressive work. Of course if Connally's back room dealing comes to light while he is still in office then there will be Hell to pay all around. Can't wait to see who he chooses as VP. He'll need to extend an olive branch across the divide in his own party before he can get on with healing...

    No 1991 August Coup

    Would probably always been an issue, probably one of those things that becomes a partisan issue in Soviet politics. At least until they revisit the issue and work it out.
  8. AHC/WI: What if Austria colonized Australia

    Your post presupposes colonialism was an absolutist to the death contest like the hunger games or a gladiatorial contest. If that were the case, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, and Portuguese colonies (except maybe Brazil) would have been exterminated down to nothing between 1700 and 1800. Nobody would...

    A New World Wreathed in Freedom - An Argentine Revolution TL

    Well, with the great yellow L plus the Phrygian cap inside of a circle with the UP National flag colours; it seems to fit with a Liberal party that also would wish to lets clear their nationalist commitment...
  10. Vainglory and death: Kurita continues

    I've been wondering that. I suppose it's also possible that Halsey comes out a bigger national hero if Kurita gets annihilated and if losses aren't... TOO crazy. Regardless of how exactly it plays out, something that keeps popping back into my head is how worn out Kurita must hbe. The guy had...
  11. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History

    @President Benedict Arnold I wonder which reactions the Cuban War is going to cause. An imperialist war of invasion in early 21st century is gonna be extremely controversial. The War on Terror with the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan wased direct against enemies who mustered no empathy from...

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

    One I've had in mind is where the Republicans win the Spanish Civil War and accordingly take an anti-fascist position internationally. If France falls roughly similar to OTL in 1940, then the Germans and Italians really have no choice but to strike over the Pyrenees into Spain (to prevent it...
  13. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    I am not expecting an Independence class light fleet carrier and they should be considered a 'Commerce protection Carrier' with no more than a dozen aircraft and a single lift but with the ability to strike down Cruiser Amphib's so allow it to act as an support ship for a Hunting group in the...
  14. Vainglory and death: Kurita continues

    More damage to both fleets but that is about it.

    AHC: Make "Byzantines" consider themselves Greek before 11th Century

    quite a sizeable number still depending on who you ask, or where you go. In the 20th Century when the Greek army invaded the island of Lemnos they were greeted by children who were curious as to what a Hellene was. When the soldiers asked them if they were not hellenic, they responded that they...

    WI: Edward VI was killed by Thomas Seymour?

    Well that depends. His Protectorate is over, but if he supports Mary he could keep some level of prominence in government, though he is more likely executed, since he was a Protestant IIRC.

    Under what circumstances would NATO or the Warsaw Pact have actually gone to war with each other?

    Nice way to dodge. Yet there was no War. When that fool, Reagan, called the Soviet Union `the Evil Empire', I knew we were headed for war. When that fool, Reagan, gave a blank check to the arms race, I knew the odds favored nuclear annihilation. When that fool, Reagan, launched Star Wars on...
