  1. What kind of PM Rab Butler would be?

    He wasn’t a German sympathiser - I don’t know where you got that. As gaskellite pointed out he supported appeasement but so did most of the political establishment (of all parties) - and not out of any love of or Germany.

    That still says Horatio Seymour, but has a picture of John Logan
  3. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    well germany and russia starting to fight each other is boringly standard, just as russia always being a shithole. So for russia and its revolution, maybe a nice change where it ends as a calm boring country, west-european style constitutional monarchy & democracy. so essentially a political...
  4. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    Hmmmm thinking about it if nothing else I suspect at least a flotilla of DDs perhaps two of them will be build in Canada as will probably all of the mine warfare vessels and sloops all of which will pay huge dividends come WWII since Canada will be well positioned to ramp up production in these...
  5. Russia vs Germany, WW2

    My assumption was that Britain agrees to an armistice and essentially becomes neutral for the remainder of the war. I get that it is a very unlikely scenario, but I just wanted to play it out. Do you think that America might still provide some assistance, even if it is not lend-lease exactly?

    WI Carter never became US President?

    I could imagine that as David T points out, Reagan is hamstrung by a liberal Congress that becomes even more hostile to him when the Democrats make gains in 1978. 1980 will almost certainly be a Reagan defeat given that the GOP would have been in power for 12 years and there is no Paul Volcker...

    What if Margaret Beaufort was born a boy?

    I was thinking that may Henry/John Beaufort could try and pull a Buckingham ITTL, assuming Buckingham is in on the plot that makes it much more dangerous since it will be two Dukes against Richard III instead of one.

    Threadmarks: Story 2555

    Grenoble, France 1700 May 15, 1944 The bombers had left the city's sight an hour ago. Two hundred medium bombers and one hundred and thirty heavy bombers had come out of the sun and through a cloud of chaff. The heavies dropped from 10,000 feet. The mediums dropped from 6,000 feet. Four...
  9. WI: Dominion of Carolina

    The idea of the US fighting a two-front war in any TL version of WW1 is an interesting concept. And I think your TL is strong enough on its own so that you don't need to do a 2.0 version in my opinion.

    How would a presidency of Lyndon Larouche look like?

    Is this really the case? The article I saw claimed that these beliefs where a smokescreen to his actual beliefs

    WI Carter never became US President?

    Indeed. While the impact of gaffes is often exaggerated, the "no Soviet domination" line may have cost Ford the election in this case.
  12. WI: Belisarius reconquers Italy

    Good point about the Avars, my mistake. But you'd need to fundamentally change Justinian as a person to send more reinforcements to Belisarius, along with cancelling his grandiose building projects. Some have suggested that Justinian did not trust Belisarius, and was paranoid that he would rebel...
  13. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    I am working on a story called - "Send me Victory or send me Revenge" about a 2nd and 3rd Ark Royal (also known as the Armada class) and this larger RCN idea may become part of it!
  14. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    I'm not sure that Prussia would remain neutral and what side they'd take if not neutral. The alliances are only in the preliminary planning stages so nothing's final yet.

  16. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    Yeah something about being invaded twice in 26 years by Germany gave them pause!
  17. WI: Dominion of Carolina

    Interesting concept. Although I'd like to think Virginia and Maryland would be swing states since the majority of the slaves in America lived there on the tobacco plantations. Anyway, I'm in the came that thinks they would complain when the British Empire abolishes slavery. Depending on how much...
  18. What if the InterWar RCN was given the same portional funding as the RAN?

    That's what not paying for 3 extra flotillas the RCN DD would have over otl pays for my good sir
