  1. The last Hanover

    I must admit i did debate this, however the circumstances aren't that different - Peel did not want to takeover as PM of a minority government when Melbourne offered to resign - to try and gain some support and to enable him to show the crown's support for the government he asked for the...
  2. Germany and Japan Unite!

    I was stationed at Tooele Army Depot when the "Holocaust" miniseries aired. There was a detachment of Luftwaffe personnel training there. When that series came on the TV in the day room everyone of them to a man got up together and walked out of the room.
  3. 'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    I'm only saying what they should have done Not what they probably could or would have done Fascist's are going to fascist!
  4. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    While the British may have not lost anything concrete, they greatly dislike Germany being the effective hegemon of Continental Europe, and will do all in their power to divide Europe again. ITTL WW2 is likely to involve the US, the UK and at least one continental power (likely France or Russia...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    This is a likely scenario if they ever split, although I can definitely see Henson and Katzenberg clashing over creative issues. I agree. At least some form of Enchanted should be made as a homage and a parody of classic Disney animated films. While Hiawatha is probably my pick for a movie...
  6. Defeat in WWI: Will France go radical or not?

    One thing here isn't just that France will be motivated by pure revenge or whatever, but that a German victory will just raise a lot of skepticism about the merits of liberal democracy. The autocrats won, and, liberal France was defeated, either joined by an also-defeated liberal UK/US, or...
  7. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    If Russia or France goes Red theres no way the Brits would back them.
  8. 'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    Sorry...not sorry But its nice too see us all aligning so early LOL
  9. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Agreed, however Hilter needs all the time he can get .... (he's already sinking American cargo ships in the Atlantic convoys and sometimes 'by mistake' sinking (EDIT or at least trying to sink) the odd US warship) Six months (for Hitler) (EDIT - or even 6 weeks) is better than zero ... six...

    What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Since FDR was looking for an over-eager U-boater and an American warship attacked as an excuse, one can presume that outcome is distinctly possible.

    But then the Moose couldn't promote Generals to head those new units

    'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    No Binary Divisions EDIT: Ninja'd
  14. 'Sanity options' for the Italian army, 1935-42

    No adoption of the Binary division (with 2 manoeuvre Brigades) to replace the Trinary division (with 3 manoeuvre Brigades) in order to try and make a formation that could react faster a feature that was never realised in practice. Italy did not have enough trained staff officers as it was...
  15. More Holy Roman Empire Electorates

    If you have more electorate before the reformation, the balance of power in the empire could shift if we have a protestant majority. After the reformation a catholic emperor would be reluctant to create protestant electorates. Maybe we could also see Austria becoming an electorate. The Habsburg...
  16. Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    I don't think the usage of the Mercator map is at all related to the numerous important issues regarding the racism present in institutions. All maps suffer distortion of the globe, and so all maps have issues with them (globes are not used because of the space and higher material costs). The...
  17. Emperor Norton I

    Return of Horrible Educational Maps

    Not to mention that old maps portrayed Antarctica as a colossal "here there be dragons" land even larger that it was. Which is possibly the corrupt influence of the Penguin lobby.
  18. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    The British lost nothing in the Peace deal there nothing for them to reclaim. The French failed hard the Russains failed. Why would they ever think of backing those two powers again?
  19. Armored trains post ww2

    If you armored train is close enough to my troops to be of use then my troops are close enough to your train track to take it out in random location.
  20. AHC: Shia "Ottomans", Sunni Iran

    None of the previous Shia dynasties were as vigorous and enthusiastic about converting as the Safavids were. Which is why I picked them specifically.
