  1. Effects and consequences if Brezhnev died in 1975

    Five Years Less is a great TL, imagining what if Brezhnev had died in 1977 https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/five-years-less-brezhnev-dies-in-1977.478504/ Brezhnev's successor as General Secretary had he died in 1975 would be either Kulakov or Kirilenko, along with Brezhnev and...

    A typical Kaiserreich map, I know, done to death. But it's a lot more "calm" than actual Kaiserreich. No fascism or wacky form of Socialism. Just Germany winning in the Eastern Front and slightly in the Western Front.
  3. WI: Alsace-Lorrena is not taken by the Prussians?

    How long can Napoleon III stay in charge of France?
  4. WI: HRE Matthias has a son

    The thing is, with her surviving, she is the sole legitimate heir of Anna of Hungary´s second son, while Ferdinand is only from the third son, so Anna has enough political clout on her own to act as regent for her son(who represents the claim of the first son) in Bohemia and to a lesser degree...
  5. Old gaurd deployed earlier at Waterloo

    He could push the British off the field, but at that point it doesn't stop the Prussians from linking up with Wellington. Hell still have to face both armies the next day.
  6. Prolonging the Futility: A WW2 European TL

    Unless I misread your TL, the Soviets are still fighting. What do you mean by no eastern front? In any case, trying to cram more troops down the same crowded roads won't do a lick to stop the Allies from smashing up supply columns, and would in fact create a target rich environment. Assuming a...
  7. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    Yeah, but see the US was a democracy where the imperialist warmonger couldn't just declare war willy nilly. Yeah - So why didn't they just declare then, could it be, because there wasn't any support for it? Could it actually be that point was to provoke them into doing something that could be...

  9. More effective Japanese ASW in ww2

    Best Options/PODs I Can Think Of: - Germany gives China early U-Boat models in the 30s, which temporarily cause havoc in Japanese Sea Lanes, thus forcing Japan to adapt the way it thinks. - Have Germany deploy U-Boats to Asia before the beginning of WW1. Said U-Boats cause havoc of Entente...
  10. How much different would cancelling operation Barbarossa make on WW2

    It was sufficiently autarkic to sustain four years of total war, with no soviet trade and a british blockade. I cannot see how they wouldn't be able to sustain the sort of limited war that would be waged against the UK for several more years, even if the Soviets tried to re-negotiate. As for...
  11. WI the Enterprise in Pearl Harbor?

    They were more interested in the battleships. From The Japanese Navy in World War II (p. 53). Naval Institute Press. Kindle Edition. Author Mitsuo Fuchida. Issued 2200, 6 December; received 1036, 7 December Activities in Pearl Harbor on the morning of 5 December: Arrived: Oklahoma and Nevada...
  12. A 'smarter' NATO cartridge strategy 1950-1980?

    I was aware of that fact but was working on the assumption that if the G3 design team were working in America since 1945/46 any gun they designed would be prefered by the Americans over some 'Foreign' gun!!!
  13. How would you make a a milirary democratic?

    Look at the Russian army between the February Revolution and Trotsky's reforms, or the (mostly anarchist) worker's militias during the Spanish Civil War, or even to a (much) lesser extent the PLA during the Cultural Revolution. The idea of a democratic army is a very common one among leftist...
  14. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    OP == "if the Germans won the battle of britain and UK was either occupied or surrendered" and "could the Soviets win on their own?" General consensus seems to be 'Yes' (the Soviets would, eventually, win on their own, even w/o lend/lease etc) -- [EDIT the earlier the Nazi's attack the worse...
  15. WI: Germany does not support Austria-Hungary in WWI?

    ... about this "blacks"-scare or this often reffered to alleged catholicism/prussianism antithesis ... let me cite myself
  16. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Just got on this and I have to say great TL, probably the best CP Victory I’ve ever seen. As for things I’d like to see...I’ve just read on several books about the holodomore and Soviet Ateocities in general and I’d really like to see how Ukraine works out ITTL and how their efforts for...
  17. Naval developments in a world without nukes

    Yes, although it would be a horrendously inefficient weapon, even against civilian targets. Simply put, you need to hit with far more mass than a nuclear strike to do much against a city (or any other kind of target) and that in turn means that you have to manufacture lots of weapons and...
  18. More Holy Roman Empire Electorates

    Earlier is entirely possible. Not only were Saxony, Franconia, Bavaria and Swabia stem duchies. This later also applied to Upper Lorraine, Lower Lorraine and Carinthia. Without the Wendic Revolt the Saxon Marches, might have been turned into one as well. Just like how Carinthia was created from...

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

    Much as I dislike Channel Awesome nowadays, this actually has a good solid idea of how to properly make Returns a faithful sequel.
  20. Naval developments in a world without nukes

    I'd say without nuclear weapons to develop the Royal Navy gets the 1952 carrier design built to partner the two Audacious class.
