  1. If Nazi Germany had had industrial parity in WWII, would they have won?

    I think this is more an inquiry than a serious POD, so I am not sure this belongs in ASB. The question itself isn't ASB, but a TL based on the idea is. I think he merely wanted to know how much the industrialized nature of Germany's opponents factored into its loss. There is a problem with that...

    Aquila et Ursus - A mildly ASB exercise in alternate geography

    I'm pretty sure geography POD's go in the ASB forum.

    Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    This always seemed like a difference of opinion thing, some people had a cynical view that MAD was ultimately going to happen. So you're definitely going to get more Threads and whatever the American version is called type movies, that would certainly deepen the fear in some of the population...
  4. A destiny fulfilled - An Eleanor of Austria TL

    And? Betrothals were broken all the time for other parties. Catherine was a adult princess who Henry knew and who's father was regent of Castile and King of Aragon. Eleanor had a dead father and a insane mother and a brother who were atleast half a dozen years away from being ruler of anything...
  5. 99 Red Winged Balloons: A hockey TL

    An appearance in the big one may help them be more secure in Winnipeg and avert the ridiculous Phoenix move.
  6. Third Bard's the Charm: A High Byzantine TL

    This in itself has big consequences on Italy- what with lords remaining dominant over cities and the pope more like a big prince-bishopric, the kingdom of Italy might develop a lot more like Germany and burgundy. Are Norman's still on their way? A Byzantine sponsored Norman katepanate of Sicily...

    Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    Ouch. Sorry, M9, Claymore is gonna be rough with you.
  8. What if Taiwan had been a classical addition to China, not an early modern addition?

    Taiwan wasn't any more worthless than what you would find in the southern coastal mainland or even places like Hainan, it wasn't colonized because of specific cirmcumstances, partially involving also static factors like geography, not because of inherent worth, given the Taiwanese coast facing...
  9. Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hands unto God: A History of the True Whigs

    Wow. A lot happening. It's a shame that Sie doesn't have more achievements to her name, but as you say, there wasn't really any opportunity for much more than what she got. There just wasn't any realistic way for the leadership of different countries to give up their newly won power that easily...
  10. Jesus is born Judith

    I feel like the operative question is not "would Judithianism become the dominant religion among the Jews?" (Probably not. Christianity didn't.) Or "Would Judith claim to be the long awaited messiah that was promised?" (Doubt it. The prophecy is pretty specific as far as penises go.) The...
  11. Sports What Ifs.

    I like the idea but the MLB might force them to just join the International League (Triple-A East now... (that still frustrates and upsets me)). I personally like the idea of another Canada team in the IL as they lost the Ottawa Lynx after 2007 OTL. Could actually help springboard more teams...
  12. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Germany took Britain, France and most of Russia all on its own while the USA was increasingly helping and it still had to join in to turn the tide. Here France is a shadow of itself while the other two are far weaker, plus you will have Austria and a stronger Germany plus both Italy and Ottomans...

    Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    Of all the random things: Cyberpunk won't be as big as it was in the early 90's. Part of the appeal of it appeared to be a response to the sudden removal of the "certainty" that the world would end in nuclear fire. So instead of a four minute warning, blinding light and a fire storm, we had...
