    WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    Exactly. While Rome itself might not have survived for all of those 2000 years, its successors have. Whether it be the Byzantines carrying on the ERE for a thousand years after the fall of the West, the Turks claiming the title of Emperor of the Romans and ruling most of what was the boundaries...
  2. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Just curious about this, but between Grantray-Lawrence and Walt Disney Television Animation, how many TV shows has Disney put out?
  3. Texas Two-Step: Nixon nominates Connally as VP in 1973
    Threadmarks: May 13, 1974

    For once, the machinery of constitutional succession worked properly. The 25th Amendment, so very recently ratified by Congress and the states, provided for the ascension of the Vice President to the Presidency in an acting capacity upon the inability of the President to carry out their duties...
  4. There and Back Again: The English Journeys of Catherine of Aragon.

    Still he was NOT a King of England. The only possible Arthur I was Arthur of Brittany, who England NEVER recognised as King (and as he was fighting for the crown with his uncle John, who was ancestor of all the successive Kings of England). The numeration of the Kings of England started with...

    'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    ^^^^ Could the Italians have raised any cash through licensing of some of their better weapons, to be built elsewhere? Though, where is a good question. If Italy has a hard time producing enough for their own internal usage, they aren't likely to build large numbers for export. Latin America...

    Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    "Relatively short barreled?" :rolleyes: I am interested in this M9 though. German StuG doctrine AND fitting equipment in US hands makes me want to see this in a story.

    There and Back Again: The English Journeys of Catherine of Aragon.

    I mentioned this because of the King Arthur of legend... For a very long time, the kings of England accepted Arthur as a real person...

    Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    That was cheeky! I didn't realise that you had completed the build and the Mongoose certainly looks right. Either way I wouldn't want to be a pilot flying CAS or in an attack helicopter with a troop of those around. Also Phar Lap looks damn good too.
  9. Texas Two-Step: Nixon nominates Connally as VP in 1973

    I'll have to get to these questions later, but thank you for the kind words and the insight into the story.

    WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    Unfortunately Trebizond lost its momentum after Alexios was captured by a fluke event. Fortunately there's an alt-history timeline about this (wink-wink-nudge-nudge). The Empire under the Angeloi was falling apart even before the Fourth Crusade thanks to their mismanagement. They make...

    WI French capital isn't Paris

    Good point, however in a Norman takeover PoD it is not unimaginable to see Paris severely damaged, and maybe even see the Normans transfer some of the wealth and symbols of power to Rouen (a bit like with a Venice and the Fourth Crusade scenario). So it would depend on how the Norman takeover...
  12. The Sting of Death: Hatred, Blood, and Happiness in Revolutionary America and Beyond.
    Threadmarks: Introductory Post

    Vital spark of heav’nly flame! Quit, O quit this mortal frame: Trembling, hoping, ling’ring, flying, O the pain, the bliss of dying! Cease, fond Nature, cease thy strife, And let me languish into life. Hark! they whisper; angels say, Sister Spirit, come away! What is this absorbs me quite...

    'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    More tools of the trade... Artillery: Obice da 75/18 modello 34 Cannone da 75/32 modello 37 Cannone da 90/53 Cannone da 149/40 modello 35 AAA Cannone-Mitragliera da 20/65 modello 35 (Breda) Cannone da 75/46 C.A. modello 34 I have previously commented on the tank line. As for the rest of...

    King Arthur of England during his life to become King Arthur I as soon one of his successors as King used that name
  15. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    This is an important point. My favourite AH subject Cold War Britain would struggle to get over 600 combat aircraft if things worked out well in the 60s and 70s. This means they can sustain maybe 3 types of combat aircraft, and nothing quite so specialized as the A10 although the Harrier has...

  17. Germany goes Communist instead of Fascist in the 1930s

    Very unlikely: the political elite of the Third Reich was adamantly anti-Communist, the KPD was remarkably ineffective (and received only lukewarm support from their backer, the Soviet Union), and there was not yet sufficient discontent that could materialize to enable a Communist revolution in...
  18. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    Certainly the Battle of the Makassar Strait would be considered one of the key events. The end of the IJNs' ability to seriously contest the Allies in the Pacific War.

    If Prince Arthur had lived and succeeded his father on the throne of England, would he have been styled as King Arthur II?

    Threadmarks: Footnote - Map of the Granadan War, 1502

    Here's a map of the Iberian Peninsula as well as most of Italy during the Granadan war as of 1502. Portuguese forces have overrun at least most of the Moroccan coast following the Battle of Alcácer Quibir in that year while the Castilians are making some progress across the border with Granada...
