    What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Ever hear of Clark Field in the Philippine Islands?

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

    Yes I understand and use the same terms myself. I was referring to our cousins to the south’s for those elsewhere since they might not understand the difference and as some have written think the term applies to all lands of modern Canada

    Different EU centre-right parties/groups

    In order to break up the EPP you either need to introduce a lot more internal conflicts between the member parties, or change the power dynamics in the EU-parliament so that the premium for being among the two biggest party groups becomes smaller. The EPP (like all groups) have been prepared to...
  5. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    Based on the links I provided the flyoff between the A-7D and A-10 took place in a variety of conditions. The test was flown by pilots with experience in CAS although none of them had combat time in the Corsair II. Both the subjective pilot and objective test results were clearly, and decisively...

    WI: The Soviet Union survived as a rump state in Central Asia?

    The Americans (and more generally the Westerners) did everything to liquidate communism (the dictatorial aspects as well as the elements to which the populations were attached).The transition from a plan economy to a capitalist economy was terribly effective. It is even amazing to what extent...
  7. AHQ: Is a Soviet occupation of all of Germany in WW2 possible?

    Could the Soviets have realistically liberated all of Germany (or at least the German territories east of the river Rhine) during the closing days of WW2? And if so, could the USSR have occupied all of Germany in the aftermath of the war, similiar to how the US singlehandedly occupied all of...
  8. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    ?? Pistol ammo stays as-is. Warehouses are full of the old MG ammo, it is time we wind down the production of it. Intermediate cartridge (especially if it is the .280 British) is a must because it allows for a hand-held automatic weapon suitable for most of the realistic firing ranges, going...
  9. Alternate national identities in the turkic speaking world

    The current borders of Central Asia are basically a Soviet creation, so avoid the Russian Revolution or just have the Soviets divide up Central Asia in a different way. For example, at one point the Kazakh were called the Kirghiz, and the Kyrgyz were called the Kara-Kirghiz. In an alternate...
  10. Looking for a timeline - Hughes presidency

    That sounds like you might be talking about Mike Stone's classic timeline "Mr. Hughes Goes to War". https://www.alternatehistory.com/shwi/Mr%20Hughes%20Goes%20to%20War.txt
  11. WI: The Soviet Union survived as a rump state in Central Asia?

    The western strategists' voices will be rather more important than those of ex-Warsaw Pact countries. I think the US will be inclined to try to make an ally (hopefully subservient) of the Russian Federation rather than marginalize it.

  14. AHQ: Stable succession system in Byzantium

    I don't see it possible in the 400 to 500 ad period exactly but yes in the case if the 500s you can have the justinian dynasty last longer a good start would be to pick the other justin or heck you can go with a late pod and make maurice survive on the other hand the macedonian dynasty lasted...

    The Plantagenet Succession

    Anne broke her sister’s nose, stole her children and married one of them to her son... savage.
  16. Looking for a timeline - Hughes presidency

    Hi A few months ago, when I was still lurking, someone in some post linked a Timeline (pretty sure it wasn't hosted here) and I thought it looked interesting so I opened it skimmed a bit, and decided yeah I like this - Sadly, I can't find it anymore. Anyway, the premise was that Hughes wins the...

    AHC: Stop the Confederacy from seceding

    Of course this whole claim falls apart when you remember that Scott had been taken into Illinois. A FREE STATE.
  18. AHC: Stop the Confederacy from seceding

    Thank you for reminding me that the decision dealt with territories and not states. Even if it is dicta, it seems persuasive. It's hard to get behind the idea that an administrative creation of the federal government has powers that it's creator does not. Ok, so maybe we get a second Dred...
  19. WI: The Soviet Union survived as a rump state in Central Asia?

    Might you not end up with a super-Chechnya style conflict if Kazakhstan seeks to retain some of the status of the old Soviet Union including nukes. I don't believe the Russian Army would allow control of the nukes to pass to the "new" Soviet Union so you could end up with a military conflict...
  20. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    ...ways — the feeling might be to get a good deal while we still can. :openedeyewink: In particular, compromise plans of free womb but financial compensation for adult slaves might start to look pretty good. * The Constitutional Convention met all through the Summer and into September of 1787.
