  1. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    Not to mention the U.S. is a vastly larger potential market/trading partner.
  2. Super 9/11 occurs

    Cool down folks.
  3. Allied tactics without air supremacy over France

    There would haven't been any Allied troops in France without Allied air supremacy. Sort of renders the question moot.
  4. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    The problem the HSF would have had at Scarbrorough was that they didn't have anything capable of penetrating the armor of an Orion or KGV (1911) battleship unless they managed to close to slingshot distance, by which time the six British BB, all of which had 13.5" guns would have punched more...
  5. England and Russia falls, what does US do?

    Sadly, as much as I love a good Ameriwank, the Reich actually occupying the UK is ASB. We have beaten the poor Marine Mammal into pulp here. No MM = No occupied UK.
  6. 9/11 Attacks Target Only West Coast - What is the Difference in Impact?

    There was a reason that the attacks happened when they did. The hijacked aircraft were all "early bird" flights to the West Coast. None of them were more than a quarter full (Flight 93 had 37 passengers, including the four hijackers, on an aircraft that holds 200). Those flights to the West...
  7. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    The Grand Fleet was never in danger at any point in the War. It sucked to be on a battle cruiser, but the Battleships were an entirely different matter. Queen Elizabeth and her sisters, along with the Revenge class (planned 14 ships for both classes) were literally invulnerable across almost...
  8. Plausible RN deployment to Pacific, 1925

    Well, the U.S. was already in military control of the Philippines at the end of the Spanish American War with a fleet capable of holding Luzon against the IJN of the era (Oregon alone was an overmatch, throw in her two sisters, along with the New York and it is a walk over), so that sort of...
  9. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    If this were the case (and it would be what the UK and U.S. would prefer) why make peace in the first place? Germany's population were promised "their rightful place in the Sun" and having won the war they get... Nothing? The scenario calls for a German VICTORY, not a better armistice, a...
  10. Plausible RN deployment to Pacific, 1925

    So No Spanish American War? No American possession of Hawaii? Very, very unlikely. However, the logical place for the RN is Singapore, along with Australia.
  11. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    I would expect that, in addition to her overseas colonies, France would have lost territory, including at least some of the Channel ports (the better to deter any UK intervention in the event of another war).
  12. What if Presidents could run for more than two terms?

    This is NOT Chat. Do NOT try to make it Chat by throwing political fire bombs. Official Warning
  13. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    This pre-supposes that political events proceed in the same manner as IOTL (where Germany lost the war and was on the verge of a Communist revolution). A victorious Germany, where the most serious privations caused by the blockade did not occur would be a very different political creature...
  14. When Nothing is Left: A WWII Timeline

    If all you want are positive comments, it likely a good idea to not start with: As discussed before, there is a layer of probability that is, by general consensus, expected in the "main" forums. That is what a good T/L is, something that starts from a POD (even one that is a bit weak) and...
  15. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    This fails to take the reality of the Kaiser, who would still be very much in charge in this scenario, and the secondary fact that a victorious Germany will have at least a good portion of France's overseas colonial empire as part of the war booty. The Kaiser was determined to have a fleet at...
  16. Naval balance of power in a Germany victorious scenario

    It is far from certain that a earlier German offensive with more troops would have resulted in a German victory. If anything the German Army may well bleed itself out, offensive actions being vastly more costly on the Western Front than defensive. However... The RN & USN wind up much larger...
  17. 9/11 Attacks Target Only West Coast - What is the Difference in Impact?

    Conspiracy theory advocacy is one of the Eight Ways to Crash Land. Truthers make it easy. Unlike many conspiracy loons, who are actually fairly humorous in their beliefs, 9/11 theorists are simply offensive. We divorce you. To Coventry with you.
  18. How could Germany defeat the USSR in WWII?

    Zombie sighted. Bus in Torch wielding mob.
  19. 9/11 Attacks Target Only West Coast - What is the Difference in Impact?

    No one cares about the West Coast. There is a political cartoon that shows how outsiders see the U.S. New York is depicted as covering half the continent, with DC covering most of the rest. All you find on the West Coast is Hollywood and Disneyland. That is actually pretty accurate. New York...
