  1. WI the Enterprise in Pearl Harbor?

    Right. I knew that part. (What a mess.)
  2. Sports What Ifs.

    WI the San Francisco 49ers take Syracuse wide receiver Art Monk with the 13th pick in the 1980 NFL Draft? He, Dwight Clark, and Freddie Solomon--yeah, that'll be a good receiving corps for the 49ers, and the 49ers face the Los Angeles Raiders in Super Bowl XVIII and probably do better than the...
  3. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Sounds like straight out of Russian civil war
  4. The Sting of Death: Hatred, Blood, and Happiness in Revolutionary America and Beyond.

    Thanks for the likes before, fellows. Any commentary on the writing? I wrote up a bit more already on a document, but once that is done, I'll need to take some time and write more :)
  5. WI the Enterprise in Pearl Harbor?

    Well, not a much worse rate than on the SW side... Anyway, those Kates weren't even supposed to be over there. But if Enterprise is over there, it'll get busy right quick, and not just with Kates. If Fuchida's bombers are unable to finish her off, Shimazaki's would.
  6. FRG withdraws from NATO

    US and British forces can just stay in their bases and ignore the German govt order to leave and dare the authorities to do anything about it The Bundeswehr will not start any hostility and the govt will look weak ineffective and will completely back down or collapse We are not refighting the...
  7. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Maybe you can get a talented propagandist to push the message that by building a navy Canada won't need to build as much of an army the next time there's a major war. Land warfare usually absorbs the vast majority of casualties so it may seem safer if you need to contribute to defense after ww1.

    Threadmarks: Epoch I, Chapter I: The Death of John Marshall

    Epoch I: A War, Never-ending in our Hearts The Making of the New World: From War Until Peace. Chapter I: The Bridge of Virginia December 4, 1775 The situation in Virginia was, to put it mildly, grim for the Loyalists. Lord Dunmore, governor of the colony, lost much of Virginia to...

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

    Not necessarily, and getting rid of Carlton would be a start (he was way too popular/good at his job for the Continentals to overcome) but you'd also need to replace David Wooster on the Continental side. He single handedly managed to alienate even English supporters of the Continentals in the...
  10. FRG withdraws from NATO

    Ok so if western allies are forcing the bundeswehr in this ( very implausible) scenario to revoke their neutrality then many German soldiers might become conscientious objectors

    The War Games hexagon world map: a tool that lets you color and create your own custom world map for alt history scenarios

    Excellent work! It'd make a great map to play games like Risk, certainly.
  12. AU Fiction: CFL-USA - A different telling.

    Jesus, guess we're the Buffalo Bills of Hockey, I guess. Hopefully we can win someday. If State Farm Stadium isn't built in this timeline, I wouldn't be surprised if the Cardinals moved since Sun Devil Stadium just doesn't work as a long term NFL Stadium since ASU owns it and I don't know if...
  13. WI: Gneisenau on Operation Rheinübung?

    I believe so.

    WI the Enterprise in Pearl Harbor?

    She rolled due to botched counterflooding (video). Later, when cabled, she leaned out and slid off the shelf when an attempt was made to move her.
  15. Do you think the Union would have won a Civil War beginning in 1856, 1852, or 1848?

    South Carolina flirted with the idea in OTL, and I'm not just talking about their being the first to actually secede either. I'm talking about during Andrew Jackson's presidency.
  16. WI Spain never allies with France during the 1790s and 1800s

    I agree with almost all of your post, except for the Latin American Independence. LAI is likely to happen at some point, but that point is going to be down the road. Sans the Iberian War, the independence movement is delayed, or put down. And, one cannot simply butterfly an event as massive...
  17. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Oh I have no doubt that this would be the optimal solution. The question is how do you get Canada to build a navy when the RN is at the height of its global power and commitment
  18. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Just for fun how about haveing a mounted unit riding on an armoured train as a mobile support base carrying stables and forage as well as fire support.
