  1. Operation Sealion - intervention of Japanese or Italian navies.

    No, there are losts of us here who enjoy them. This particular forum, however, is not the correct place for those sorts of threads. That is what ASB and Shared Worlds (depending on how you want to work the thread) are for. ASB gets a bad rap, mostly because the term tends to be misused as an...
  2. A Different 1939

    Wow. A mature outlook. Cool. This may be the start of a beautiful friendship.
  3. A Different 1939

    You have no idea how long we have been waiting for this admission! :D:p:D
  4. A Different 1939

    You have proposed something that has a remarkably low level of probability. Individuals are pointing out the flaws in your scenario. That is how this Board works. You are reacting to these very reasonable replies with varying levels of hostility. That is NOT how this Board works. I warned...
  5. Operation Sealion - intervention of Japanese or Italian navies.

    The U.S. would sell oil to anyone who could pay. The Japanese managed to get themselves into a situation where they, uniquely, managed to piss the U.S. governement off so severely that they were cut off. The Axis controling the Med is as close to ASB as any Sealion scenario. Simply not going...

  7. Operation Sealion - intervention of Japanese or Italian navies.

    The difficulty for Japan is that they will have nowhere to refuel. Even if they managed to find somewhere to fuel they really would not change the balance of power to the degree you might expect. In mid 1940 the IJN was still operating the A5M off her carriers, the A6M was barely entering...
  8. Ley lines and history: hidden

    Okay. I tried to give you the benefit of doubt with the first one of these you posted. I was wrong. New member. Two post. Two trolls. We divorce you. To Coventry with you. Banned.
  9. A Different 1939

    I would strongly suggest that some posters here dial it back a couple notches. This isn't an elementry school play yard. Cut the insults and disparaging remarks. Now. CalBear in Mod Mode.
  10. Renaissance flying machines?

    Since you are new here, I will assume this is an innocent error. Don't just link, especially to this sort of site without adding content. CalBear in Mod Mode.

  12. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    The Japanese had a near pathological fear of the Soviets. They knew that Moscow had plenty of reasons to come after them, dating back to before the USSR even existed as well as the long Japanese occupation of Siberia during the Intervention, and that the Red Army had crushed them in their border...
  13. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    The Soviets had been massing troops for two months to prepare for the entry into Manchuria. The invaded EXACTLY, literally with a few hours, following the Surrender of the Reich (which was and is celebrated on May 9 in Moscow, not May 8, since the documents were signed after midnight Moscow...
  14. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    The attack on Nagasaki and the Soviet entry into the war happened ON THE SAME DAY. I would strongly recommend that you get your facts straight. There are numerous other threads on this subject. Perhaps a review of them would be of value to you.
  15. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    There is also the reality that the B-sans did not magically disappear with the advent of the A-bomb. The U.S. continued to firebomb cities right up to the surrender (IIRC there was a strike either on the ramp or in the air when Japan's surrender was accepted that had to be called off), and that...
  16. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    Because General Douglas MacArthur deemed it so (and managed to talk FDR into buying it). As the date of the Invasions grew close there was increasing dissent about the entire Downfall Plan.
  17. WI: The Atomic bomb is not dropped?

    The United Stated planned to stop bombing cities after three weapons were used. They planned to use up to TEN weapons in a tactical role against the Kyushu beach defenses. The minute the first American sets foot on the beach the last chance for anything short of Japan's obliteration is past...
  18. Conventional War Instead of Vietnam

    Cuba is out. The USSR made Cuba a tripwire state.
  19. It´s going to ruin us

    I have no clue what where this was supposed to go, clearly it isn't here. Locked
  20. WI Malta class aircraft carrier

    Okay. In your SECOND post you make a whole hearted endorsement of a post that resulted in a member being kicked. Generally, that would be a kick for you as well, however, seeing that you have chosen to start off with a troll, lets just cut to the chase. Banned for trolling straight out of the...
