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

  3. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    France is a shadow of itself, true, however Austria-Hungary (Danubia) has just gone through an existential civil war and Italy and the Ottomans acted with the similar level of competence they showed during OTL WW1. Germany itself is in a much stronger position, yes, but none of this means too...
  4. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    IIRC USAFE had a wing of F111Fs and another of F111Es based in Britain for the deep strike role. There were also about 6 or 7 F4 wings in USAFE in the late 70s and 3 or so in the early -mid 80s.
  5. Was the first Sino-Japanese war the last chance to save the Qing?

    Maybe, but I personally doubt it. I was just reading about the first naval War between the two powers and I think territorial clashes would have happened again and over again. But around this time, rebellion was already starting. Control over the southern provinces was drastically declining...
  6. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    One of the Britishers' problems is the current German hegemony over Europe. They would like to break that very much. So, they have no choice but to ally with communist powers. Remember even if both France and Russia are communist it does not mean they will have the same form of communism and...

    THICC: The Highly-Inclusive Color Code

    Time for another update! Asia's finished and we're knee-deep in Africa now, with the Pepper Coast being completed earlier today, which is one of the sections that's probably grown the most, with Sierra Leone going from just 3 colors to 89. Here's the current progress map, and some statistics...
  8. TL-191: After the End

    Joshua Blackford had a fairly quiet post-presidency, outside of speaking at major Democratic Party events, including several presidential conventions. Blackford had a cordial relationship with most of his successors. The Blackford Presidential Library was opened in 1989, which also honors both...
  9. WI: American Airlines Flight 96 crashes?

    Does TK 981 even happen if AA 96 goes down? If I recall correctly, following AA 96, McDonnell Douglas revised the design cargo door latch that failed on AA 96 causing the door to be torn off in the slipstream and damaging the aircraft’s hydraulic system. McDonnell Douglas then advised airlines...
  10. WI: Iraq invades Saudi Arabia?

    Isn't this the same kind of argument that starts "If the nazis were notzis then..........."? The Americans had what they had and the Iraqis had what they had. IOTL the air war destroyed between 20-40% of Iraqi AFV before the ground war started and this was with a predominately defensively set...
  11. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    The biggest evidence of Germany winning a future war is that in the 21st Century the Hohenzollerns are still ruling Germany. Considering how vengeful the French are, there's just no way the Hohenzollerns would be allowed to keep their crowns in the event of an Allied victory. And before you...
  12. The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    very good "aller la France"
  13. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    Your correct, but what the upgraded A-7 would do was deep interdiction operations in a NATO Warsaw Pact confrontation. The FB-111 was held back for the nuclear strike role, the F-16 at that point was just a day fighter/bomber, and the F-15 was a pure fighter/interceptor. Before the F-16 became...
  14. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    ...same time meant they died quicker. Plus when the roads tuned to mud and the horses started dying more quickly due to pulling loads through that* it hadn't got really cold yet (of course later on it got really cold and the roads were shit) *and remember this was after a couple of months of...
  15. The Reform Party: 20 Years of History
    Threadmarks: 2002 Part 5

    From the moment that President John Kasich (R-OH) had endorsed instant-runoff voting in his inaugural address, it was clear that major electoral changes were coming in the United States, it was just up to the three main parties to figure out what that would look like. For the first year of the...
  16. AHC: Make the Romansh Switzerland's dominant ethnic group

    The wiki article states that this was the language spoken by Roman settlers in the region in at least 5th century AD.
  17. Portuguese Cabo- a TL

    Yes, Portugal was important in slave trade, so I would expect a combination of both solutions, slaves because they are cheap and bountiful and convicts from Portugal to get rid od them. Another thing, when the VOC lured the settlers to Kaap, they promised them a free transport, agricultural...

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

    The RCN brass were basically clones of the RN and interoperability is a big thing.....one could leach off the RN's world wide supply system.
