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

    It wasn't anywhere near aggressive enough, early aggression would have put Italy into a much better position. Instead they allowed Britain to chip away at them, command the Med and pick and choose engagements. Hell, battleships ran from Cruisers. Oil existed in sufficient amounts if agression...
  2. Effects and consequences if Brezhnev died in 1975

    Not really my field but it sure makes sense to me.

    WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    Yeah, I feel like 2000+ years in various forms is already doing pretty well on that second front.

    When could an independent/unified Ireland happened?

    Eventually. Waiting for dlc and a lower price. Or a steam sale.
  5. WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    By all reasonable standards, Rome was already remarkably stable and long-lasting.
  6. WI/AHC : Stable, long lasting Rome.

    I am not talking about an uber-Roman Empire miraculously solving all its problems and conquering all of Europe, lasting in continuous peace and prosperity, having an industrial revolution thousands of years earlier and all that. I mainly am asking about a Rome that looks somewhat like China did...

    @Yes, Found these Regional Plan Association reports from 1976 and 1980 about urban rail in America that should be helpful for transit construction ITTL. 1980 is a long read, but Chapter 4 discusses which cities could take subways, light rail, or people movers: Where Transit Works 1976...

    Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    I would offer a suggestion that maybe the Second Partition happens... BUT...based on the testimony Frederick the Great made about how Empress Maria Theresa handled the first partition ("the more she wept, the more she took"), Austria realizes the danger in allowing Russia to get closer to their...
  9. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    You MIGHT be able to get Virginia, North Carolina, and Maryland to jump on board but good luck with Georgia and South Carolina.
  10. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    I thought the Tidewater region was coastal Virginia and North Carolina, and Maryland. I might be wrong on that one.

    Images from the Footprint of Mussolini

    "Toryou Benito Mussolini" is a 2011 japanese anime-documentary about the life of the italian leader. The mockumentary has been banned on Italy after neofascist politicians describing it as a "Desgrace to mankind" and "A proof that mussolini died in vain"

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    That's outside the scope of solid lore atm.
  13. List of Alternate Monarchs and Aristocratic Lineage

    That was at least part of the reason for otl Henry VII marrying Elizabeth of York, apart from her claim to the throne, of course. In fact, the Famous "Tudor Rose" was supposedly created by combining the red Lancastrian Rose with the White Rose of York. At least, that's what I've read...
  14. If Mondale wins in 1984, does Clinton still become President in 1992?

    Almost certainly not - a two-term Mondale presidency would likely have the effect of preventing the OTL New Democrats (Clinton, Gore, etc.) from taking over the party, even if the Dems under Mondale are considerably more conservative than, say, LBJ (at least economically). The likely frontrunner...

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    How did American English get fucked up that badly? It looks as bad as Caribbean Pidgin

  17. A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    Having spent many days '81-83 coordinating, adjusting and observing the effects of artillery, mortars and close air support (CAS) at Ft. Carson, CO's impact area, my downrange office, I was always VERY impressed at the bombing accuracy of A-7s and was disappointed to hear they were soon to be...
  18. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)
    Threadmarks: Chapter 88: May and June 1974

    I'm going to familiarize myself more with the collectibles so I can write about them more in-depth, because I do think they're an integral part of the Star Trek universe. Short update for today, covering May and June 1974. Today, California governor Ronald Reagan attacks the Muskie...
  19. Map Thread XX

    Other (mini-)TL, ...or maybe more an idea, but which flows through my mind a long time already.. However, here is my favourite country after a bit better Trianon-outcome. A Hungary with a bit "nicer" Trianon. Őrvidék (aka Burgenland) stays from the very beginning Hungarian - instead of that...

    Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Horses, while great animals, most just aren't as smart as dogs, though some are. Horses to me, tend to have wider personalities range than most dogs. Some are downright mean, and that was with no mistreatment or anything. Others were just kind of dumb, like a real gentle Mare, couldn't figure...
