    Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    This is SoCal in the early 70's, so that means at least one of those pies is going to be a Hawaiian.
  2. AHC: earlier unification of Germany

    A successful 1848 Revolution and a more liberal (or opportunistic) Prussian Monarchy might enable an earlier unification of Germany. Of course, that likely requires successful revolutions across the continent...

    Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    If you invert the colors the ocean goes blue, but the alphabet soup all over Europe, the Caribbean, and west Africa is still a pain, and a lot of bordering countries are the same color which is just weird
  4. Armored trains post ww2

    The heyday of the armored train was the Russian Civil War, and I think it suggests four major prerequisites for serious use of armored trains: 1) Both sides (or however many sides there are, like the RCW) desperately need the rail lines and are willing to shoot anyone who intentionally damages...

    Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    Pineapple, naturally. Only pineapple. Nothing but pineapple. :p
  6. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    As other posters say this is highly unlikely which is why we have an ASB forum to debate extreme events. In answer to your question as if wargaming. IMHO In 1941 Germany and the USSR are evenly matched but Germany has to win quickly because Soviet production will be greater. Think of the Risk...
  7. FRG withdraws from NATO

    And what will Germans do if US and allies decide to reoccupy west Germany to prevent it from leaving NATO ?
  8. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    I would assume not, because the Soviet Union reached the same par that China is at now in the 80s. fasquardon

    Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Eh I disagree with such assumptions they typically don't take into account is will of enforcement something comparable to our Versailles is enough it just requires Germany enforce it. Even if war does still break out it is one that is much easier to win certainly easier then subduing otl...

    A Day in July: An Early 20th Century Timeline

    I've been reading this TL for the past month or so, and I've finally caught up. This is easily one of the best TL's I've ever read on the site, and rest assured that I will be following along with great interest from here on out.

    Rebirth of an Empire "O Renascimento de um Império" v2.0

    It was really interesting to learn about it. My understanding expanded considerably in reading about it myself. The late 18th century was described by some as time of turbulence. The social changes inspired by Pombal and those who followed him including the changes brought up by Tagus...

    AHC: Roosevelt and Lodge unable to contain Philippine War Scandal

    Following the aftermath of the Philippine-American War, Roosevelt found a war scandal at hand after news reports of extreme brutality against natives in the Philippines, both insurrectionist and citizen, were released, including recounts of prisoners executed without trial and the infamous water...

    Alternate warships of nations

    The Dutch at the time of the discussions leading to the Rome naval conference in early 1924 were willing the accept a limit to battleship tonnage of 26,500t (equal to their existing ships). They were one of only 3 countries along with Norway and Sweden to accept the proposed limits. How do you...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    Hope you feel better soon. This story is too good to abandon for too long

    I'm not sure which is worse, the ginormous lettering or the piss-yellow oceans... the pain upstairs it makes my eyeballs ache :p

    Audentes Fortuna Iuvat: A Timeline

    ooo i knew that's what was going to happen! i'm kind of rooting for edward vii tbh, james already has a kingdom.
  17. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I personally second a democratic Russia making an alliance with Germany, I've not seen that, so it would be both original and interesting. Bonus points if its Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky in any important role (or any futurist)
  18. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Sloops sloops sloops. Go to the US. "It would be a shame if a bunch of people used ships from Canada to bring alcohol from across the border. Shame we are too poor to afford a decent navy..."
  19. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    An interesting thought is the views of Historians in this world. What they will consider the important battles to be of this ww2 and how massively popular series such as "The World at War" will differ from our series when deciding what needs a single episode devoted to it and what can be covered...
  20. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Some very good points there my only doubts are: A: Wouldn't the vastly different different strategic situation ITTL mean that its not exactly valid to look exactly at OTL losses. For example the from September-November 1943 the Luftwaffe lost 982 aircraft in the Mediterranean but one mustn't...
