  1. Does Japan Have Any Chance Of Winning In WW2?

    Problem with this is that the Japanese economy was far too small to play the sort of game the U.S. played in WW I. They lacked the resources and hard cash reserves necessary to play banker, they lacked the available heavy formations to play a decisive role in any European land war. Worse, they...
  2. Does Japan Have Any Chance Of Winning In WW2?

    If you want to look at it that way the critical thing is to stay the hell out of French Indochina. The embargoes and economic sanctions sprang from that. Until then the pressure was bearable. The Irony, of course, was the Japanese assumed they would be able to secure sufficient food supplies...
  3. [Poll DONE RIGHT]Is the 'Byzantine Empire' a continuation of the Roman Empire?

    I see Ian's reminder to be civil and cut out the insults was less than wholly effective. Allow me to try. Cease and desist. Kicked for a week. See ya' in 7.
  4. Does Japan Have Any Chance Of Winning In WW2?

    Lost Freeway was kind enough to provide my proposed victory scenario, :D That being said... The Japanese had no serious territorial gain prior to 1/1/42 outside of the Asian mainland. The main success in the Pacific was Guam and Wake. None of the territory taken was foing to provide the Empire...
  5. Netherlands in the Central Powers

    If you want to compliment without having any expansion to the content you can hit the like button on the bottom right of the post.
  6. Would a world with no Protestantism and instead a mass Catholic Reformation be less racist?

    Well, that's a week on the beach. Nasty bit of trolling there, along with flamebaiting AND, just as a bonus, dragging current politics outside of Chat. See ya' in 7.
  7. Northern Limit Line

    Don't do this.
  8. PC: French African decolonization delayed until 1975

    Oh, the current leadership has taken the country straight into the ground. The issue there, however, is HOW ZAPU/ZANU-PF came to power and why Mubage gained prominence. That was, of course, the Civil War. An orderly transition might have prevented him ever reaching power.
  9. Best way for Open Thread to have eventual better US race relations

    Uh huh. Long since given up reasoning with folks like you. Banned. We divorce you. To Coventry with you.
  10. Poland war

    1924.
  11. AHC: British Empire controls all non-European territory

    Why did you feel compelled to make the first post?
  12. Nuremberg Trials if Hitler lived?

    Under OTL end of war circumstances Hitler would never have been allowed into WAllied control. Stalin would have kept him for himself. I could see Stalin keeping him is a private zoo, although most likely he would be executed in a way that would make the Grand Inquisitor of the Spanish...
  13. PC: French African decolonization delayed until 1975

    Yes, Ian Smith is absolutely the individual who best exemplifies concern about transition to majority rule. You did, however, forget that other shining example of progress, P.W. Botha. The disaster that is today's Zimbabwe is largely thanks to Smith and his "White superiority mindset."...
  14. PC: French African decolonization delayed until 1975

    Sticks and Rocks? FFS! Racism is entirely unacceptable here (for that matter so is ignorance of historical fact). This is a ONE STRIKE violation. Don't let there be a next time. Kicked for a week.
  15. Assyrian Resurgence?

    I see my previous warning was overly specific. Allow me to correct. DO NOT drag current political commentary into the "main" Forums. That is what Chat is for. You are rapidly building up a pile of kindling under your bridge. I strongly suggest you cease and desist.
  16. When was the German 88mm obsolete?

    Oops, wrong. This is UTTERLY unacceptable. DO NOT REPEAT.
  17. When was the German 88mm obsolete?

    There was no need to respond with an insult/trolling response of your own. Do NOT repeat.
  18. Crisis in the Kremlin: An Extended Cold War TL

    Please take discussion of the action to the HoI. I would, however, note that this was not the Count's first action that was based on genocidal positions
