  1. A House Divided Against Itself: An 1860 Election Timeline

    Just to make things interesting not Breckinridge. So I’ll go with Major General David Twiggs and William L. Yancey. Going the war hero route.
  2. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    My idea was that Britain decides to negotiate a deal with the Germans after seeing the war is hopeless - something some of the elites (even Lloyd George) were contemplating even in OTL. I could definitely see reasons for Britain and Germany supporting the French "nationalists" but then again...

    Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Apart from proper names, place-names, very commonly-used words and a few cognates, my Russian comprehension is frankly too terrible to wade through that... but the illustrations are great :p
  4. Alternate warships of nations

    Hmmmm so a bunch of highly mobile coastal subs and PT boats and minelayers with some DDs to back them up and seaplanes and land based air to Scout for them? That could work. Speaking of WWI surplus equipment I bet you could get a ton of heavier ex German artillery for both field work and coastal...
  5. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Didn't both the Germans and the Soviets raise "Horse Calvary" (more mounted infantry or dragoons really) divisions during the war mostly for rear area security? Their are a few situations (like some mountainous terrain in extremely isolated locations) where draft animals still have a military...
  6. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Gotta admit the idea of NVG equipped US Green berets equipped with M16s riding horses and calling in air strikes from B52s is pretty insane.
  7. FRG withdraws from NATO

    You compare Iraq 2002 to Germany 1982 and think this is clever? Oh my! Are you sure a history forum is the right thing for you? Okay, lets start. Iraq happend 11 years, after the USA became the sole superpower. It was a small rogue dictatorship, isolated and hated by its neighbours. And 9/11...
  8. Alternate warships of nations

    Maybe assume more of a "guerilla submarine" policy for the DEI's. Build a small number of mobile submarine tenders to be moved around the DEI to various isolated inlets and refuel, resupply, and repair submarines. Assume the main bases are going to get hit hard very fast so operate off the...
  9. Alternate warships of nations

    That is a valid point. Having all your major trading partners shooting at each other and restricting what you can trade will do that to your economy

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

    I know that I originally said that the Second and Third Partitionings of Poland weren't going to happen, but I've been thinking about it and doing some research and now I'm not sure anymore. Any input here would be appreciated. And while it's a little early to be sure, the results of the HRE...
  14. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    I don't think that will be the case but the Trail of Tears only happened by one vote IOTL and that was under President Andrew Jackson. With the British in charge, I wouldn't expect anything like that here. And even if it were, expect it that the Five Civilized Tribes to receive some degree of...

    W: Different pattern of colonization of British America

    This trend was more inspired by geography then anything else. Nobles needed land suitable for plantations to retain their power structures. So realistically they had no motive to settle new england so the farthest north would be the mid-atlantic states. Also religious minorities have less of an...

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    I’m gonna...give a hard no on this, seeing as Apollo and Diana are twins, not lovers. And yes I am well aware that the Greek gods didn’t give af but I know for sure people in 16th century England would. Also Diana the goddess is big gay. So yeah.
  17. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    I may have coincidentally stumbled upon the original version you mentioned here Not entirely sure (I find the text very hard to read) but the earths center does turn into spiders.
  18. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Henry was also very fond of Masques, and dressing up as personages from times past and from mythology. So his playing Apollo isn't all that much of a stretch. Especially as he was a dab hand with the Lute...

    AHC: Sweden wins the Great Northern War

    Some possible outcomes: 1) Denmark or the PLC may find a new alliance partner. Prussia, Hanover, Holland, and Britain (and by extension because of PU, Hanover) are most likely candidates. Unless Sweden can convince a few of the smaller German states and France to back them, any combination of...
