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

    Canada could justify a Coast Defence Battleship similar to those in the Baltic for use on the West Coast. Of course after the mid 1930's a few torpedo bomber squadrons make more sense.

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

    Maybe a bit, but Canada's corvette spam was largely down to leveraging various small shipyards that certainly wouldn't partake in any pre-war build up.
  3. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    IIRC they had offered the production rights to the UK and USA free of charge as a big thank you very much for liberating us. Twice Not allowing the same to Germany was perhaps understandable - especially by the company itself as given that FNs directors were all arrested by the NAZIs, the main...
  4. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    The whole two world war tropes is so boring and overplayed. It makes me sick.
  5. Horse mounted infantry for COIN

    Bumping it up (shamelessly ) sorry
  6. Protect & Survive Miami: End of Watch

    I'd love to do some more work on The Island, but that was driven by Chipperback's story and direction... the one thing I learned working on the story is with some ingenuity and knowledge of the Category 2 and 3 railroads (and the short lines) there are probably rail connections to just about...
  7. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I personally would like to see a Russian or British-led Entente against Germany in TTL's WW2. For me, it makes the least sense that France go revanchist (communist or fascist) after a CP victory given that Germany would've defeated them twice and the French likely wouldn't want to go to war with...
  8. Armored trains post ww2

    They probably could also be used in defensive warfare against less technologically advanced adversary I think one of the big problems is that most conflicts in the post World War II era were fought in regions which do not have a very robust railway net work
  9. What kind of PM Rab Butler would be?

    Any chance that Churchill/Eden forming a different cabinet could later award the position to Butler?
  10. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Hmmmm other good names for the other Arks would be Triumph and Rainbow(named after one of the first ships of the RCN as basically a way of saying thanks for making this possible Canada) or alternatively Bonaventure due to Revenge and Victory already being in use. Although I suppose you could...
  11. AHC : Islamic State conquers BOTH Syria and Iraq

    I mean worst-case scenario even if they do fall Isis would not be able to control them for long They are not like Saddam’s armies that were Taylor made for putting down small scale rebellions
  12. More effective Japanese ASW in ww2

    Interesting thanks I thought the waters there were just too deep for effective mine warfare? But probably mines had evolved a lot more since the days of World War I
  13. AHC : Islamic State conquers BOTH Syria and Iraq

    If it even remotely looks like the Shia regions of Iraq are going to fall, Iran will invade.
  14. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I hope to see the Bolsheviks lose and for the Russian Empire to remain in place, with a devolution of power from the Tsar to a elected Parliament of sorts, in the mould of Britain or even Germany.

    What kind of PM Rab Butler would be?

    The worst part is that I do not remember where I read that So ok, he was not, so, how is his rule as a PM if he's elected in '53?

    Automotive WI: Toyota without Lexus, PSA Peugeot-Citroen merges with the Corolla maker by gaining benefit from the French marque's underpinnings

    Well, for the irony however, I even presented you to check this recently-made thread out anyway: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/automotive-wi-toyota-buys-fiat-spa-which-contains-alfa-romeo-ferrari-and-lancia-circa-1980s-or-c-1990s-this-means-fix-it-again-toyota.508503 That was...
  17. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Just to be clear, the US policy towards Japan was not to provoke an attack. That was viewed as a possibility, but not the desired outcome, which was to force Japan to back down on threat of economic collapse without having to go to war (and it would've worked if the collective Japanese...
  18. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    I just want to see a USSR next to a German Empire and a Danubian federation.
  19. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    Although the Belgians refused to sell a production licence of the FAL to West Germany they were willing to sell them rifles they'd built, which kind of surprises me. I wouldn't have been surprised if they'd fought tooth and nail to prevent the Germans having any weapon more effective than a...
  20. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    Sorry if I misinterpreted anything, my apologies. But yes the alliances aren't final but it would not surprise me if Prussia DID remain neutral given that OTL Anglo-Spanish War only involved four countries. But with Russia likely joining here (given their claims over Nutca) anything can happen.
