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

    Depending on my workload you all may get an extra chapter between now and this weekend...
  2. 'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    This is intended to be a thread about Italian Army alternative wepons, tactical trends, manpower usage, maning better use of Army-geared industrial and logistical capabilities. Ie. similar to the other 'sanity options' threads conceived by other fellow members. It is not about 'have Italy sit...
  3. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I think a Great Game 2.0 in a CP Win is more realistic than a Revanchist France. Maybe Revanchist Russia but they didn't lose any of theirs core lands. (Baltics are pretty important but not a part of the "Heart of Russia" in my opinion). Maybe Belarus can be considered a core land.
  4. FRG withdraws from NATO

    Good for the Soviet Union, bad for the rest of Europe
  5. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    No place in modern conventional battlefield yes I agree
  6. Comte de Dordogne

    Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    I don't know what to say... I mostly feel like you're asking me for help putting out a candle with a bucket of water. I want to believe you are honest but the concepts you are using are way over my head. It seems to be common in the Anglo-Saxon world to approach subjects in this way but I can...
  7. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    The Brits definitely have motive though, German domination on the contenint is very much averse to British Interests and their presence in Africa will endanger Imperial holdings to a large degree. And this is before we calculate in Nationalism and the heavy desire to avenge the last war...
  8. These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    This makes Webster's spelling reforms look almost non-heretical.
  9. Albion, where the Sun never set

    As @Arthur Marston said, the bigger scope and technology of the war (mostly in the sense of armaments and vehicles) most definitively caused the deaths to be in a larger number than OTL, I mean, this time the conflict affected much of the Americas and places like Mesopotamia and the basin of the...
  10. WI: HRE Matthias has a son

    Yes, Ferdinand as Emperor is problematic. Certainly it would be hard for him with merely Inner Austria to maintain the Imperial court. My real point is that there are no good options here, certainly there is no best option or more likely outcome. Albert would be very hard pressed by the hardline...
  11. The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    So one thing thats occuring to me: Is the fate Of OFN POWs in Japanese hands ever adressed? That would be a particularly prickly issue given just how many of them there are and how the Japaese treated them. I very much doubt they were up to date with returning all of them and the knowledge of...
  12. 12 Years Under Twin Nicholas (Military Dictatorship in the last 12 years of the Russian Empire)

    interesting idea for story,btw if you want to make it more fascist make generalissimo promote idea of third rome so twin nicholas can be something akin to emperor and co-emperor or Augustus and Cesar(and yes i do know tzar is russian version of Cesar)
  13. Germany and Japan Unite!

    You are a braver man than I. I've visited many battlefields, but refuse to visit the death camps, as I know I would break down in tears. No personal, political of religious connection but I could not face it. It was a truly epic series, not only in intent, but in quality too. IIRC an early role...
  14. TheNixonator

    Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    Would someone be willing to make the sun on the flag below have only six rays? Also, please have them be a little larger than the ones already there so it fills up space in between them.
  15. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    But solving the War of the Roses in the good old way, with a duel of champions?
  16. Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    Excuse me can i request a us state of okinawa flag and cost of arms?
  17. Explain the AH Quote

    A line from a popular british sitcom spitting image which is famous for mocking the global political scene this particular episode is about an english man travelling to both australia and sourh africa to work on a humanitarian effort but ends up selling gold to some indian smuggler while...
  18. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Useful up to the point when the insurgents learn how to shoot. Horses deal very poorly with snipers, being large targets that look very weird moving around in cammo nets. Then you have to deal with a wounded horse, that is both quite hard to carry and bad for morale. In the old days the troops...
  19. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Isn't this otl Afghanistan ?

    What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    If we want to forego hind sight to talk about Canada's actual defence priorities were in the 1920s, then scrap the RCN entirely and give its budget to the Militia (which was proposed and thankfully not acted on) because the going concern was America. Further there doesn't really need to be an...
