  1. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    A mostly bloodless coup, where the Coup plotters somehow had acquired better tech and weapons than the Government forces, and were recognized, somehow, within minutes of the initial announcement by the A4 AND India, both of which just coincidentally, (totally by accident, everyone know those two...
  2. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    It was tolerated for almost a generation. Keep in mind the A4 is focused on international aggression and/or genocide. Outside of that, what you do internally is up to you. They finally decided that things were headed for a bloodbath, so they very quietly supported the most reasonable group they...
  3. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Absorbed into the U.S.
  4. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    It wasn't just the Holocaust, although it was a major reason for the end result. The WAllies wanted to have an Israel. They were, however, handcuffed by their own policy of self determination. There were not enough Jewish voters in the Mandate to win the election, the 1963 effort failing by...
  5. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Banned? Not really. Treated even more like bovine excrement than IOTL? Yes. The reality is that, outside of the A4 states and the remnants of the Zionist movement in what IOTL is Israel/Palestine there are NO Jewish populations worthy of the term anywhere in the world. There are roughly...
  6. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    They really weren't. A few lines about Governments in Exile and that was about it.
  7. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    In general the same as IOTL, The Italian city states were unmolested, as was Liechtenstein (which, as IOTL, had a Fascist ruling party). Monaco ceased to exist, first occupied by the Italians, then the Germans, and finally by the French Nationalist government (who repudiated the...
  8. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Governments in Exile were, in general, restored to place of power, although that was subject to eventual popular vote, overseen by outside observers (usually from Spain and Switizerland) before WAllied occupation forces departed. In some cases the Governments in Exile were not welcomed back...
  9. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    U.S. and Commonwealth troops were exchanged at the time of the Bombing holiday. Prisoners, regardless of origin country could decline repatriation. Relatively few WAllied (roughly 1%) troops took advantage of the "opportunity" to remained in the Reich while around 7% of the Axis troops (mainly...
  10. How to convict OJ of the two murders

    Easy-peasy 1. Competent investigation that follows LAPD SOP for chain-of-evidence. 2. Competent prosecution team that explains a physical evidence case and keeps OJ the one on trial, not the LAPD. The authorities, basically from the initial call, screwed the pooch. Don't screw the...
  11. WI: Steve Irwin Lives

    Prevents the rise of his daughter? Has she become a evil genius with a lair in a hollowed out volcano? Last I heard she was Dancing with the Stars.
  12. AHC/WI: Real Grammar Nazis

    Is there something in the water today? FFS. Locked.
  13. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Swiss are seen as, well, the Swiss. Not radically different from OTL, there are plenty of muttering about the money they made, but the general view is in the "Well, what COULD they do, completely surrounded by the Nazis?" mode. Sweden is viewed in something of similar manner, more of hostage...
  14. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Before and after photos of Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Warsaw would be a nice start. They are not bombed out, as are most European cities, they literally don't exist any more. Dismantled brick by brick by slave laborers until they died from starvation and exposure. Point out that, 50 years...
  15. 2nd LNT / RN / questions&discussion

    PoW might have managed it on her own. A balanced 16" design also wouldn't have had to rely on pure luck not to suffer a mission kill from Bismarck As I noted earlier American fast BB were not really balanced although the BB-57 and BB-61 classes made up for it with some really clever design...
  16. 2nd LNT / RN / questions&discussion

    Until the Treaty was abandoned the RN and USN were, in major surface combatants, exactly equal (rather the point of the Treaty actually), with the IJN 60% of their size. As far as being smaller - at the end of the construction cycle, I was unaware of the fact that the RN commissioned 22 CV, 9...
  17. 2nd LNT / RN / questions&discussion

    It wasn't just the gun. Naval architects create "balanced" designs (for those who may be unfamiliar with the term, that means their armor can protect against their main gun). A balanced 16" design capable of 28 knots would need to be, full load, 50,000+ tons (the U.S. fast BB, much like the IJN...
  18. 2nd LNT / RN / questions&discussion

    One significant issue is that the RN effectively gave up trying to maintain parity with the USN once the Treaty expired/died thanks to Japanese withdrawal. Even then the British, very intentionally, tried to maintain the limits voluntarily by building the KGVs with 14" guns. The effort failed...
  19. 2nd LNT / RN / questions&discussion

    The UK, more than any other player, wanted the WNT to be continued in 1930 AND 1936. The Exchequer was broke. The cupboard was way past bare. In 1914 the British Government debt was 620M pounds or roughly 3 times income, but also only 25% of GDP. In 1930 it was 7.46 BILLION pounds roughly 7...
  20. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    I mentioned up thread that I didn't have the postscripts included, mainly because I do not feel that they are of the same quality as the rest of the timeline research-wise. I did some research, but less than for any of the actual work (my research:writing ratio time investment was about 3:1...
