  1. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    You have just destroyed the good image, I have of Synchronised Swimming or Artistic Swimming.

  4. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    So.... Kerensky is living in New York, a SPA stronghold. Once the Second American Civil War breaks out, I wonder if he will get arrested, put on trial in a 'People's Court', and executed by some of the CSA Red Guard militia units for this 'crimes' of having fought against the Bolsheviks...
  5. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Would there be a difference in German army performance if the Entwicklung program or something like it that increased standardization among the chasses were implemented before war broke out? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entwicklung_series

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

    Well said. As someone raised adjacent to the 'radical Christianists' (I like that word, incidentally) but whos family has thankfully mellowed right out over the years (still Christian, but damn do the Christianists make me angry), I both expect such things to happen and applaud the Khan for...

    How did Anglo Saxons get to Crimea? It is quite a ride
  8. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    The French failure at the Ardennes would be deemed ASB on this forum had it not happened and someone had suggested it here! The local French Corps (10th Corps?) spent 3 days doing almost nothing about the crossing - it was a fucking farce!

    Is an OPEC for iron ore unrealistic?

    China's iron ore is low-grade and very expensive to process.
  10. The Sun of Rocroi TL- A better Grand Condé

    So far your plan of redrawing the map of Europe works beautifully. 😂
  11. Primavera d'Italia: War, Love and Revolution

    IIRC the term "pizza" was born out of the way the very Germanic Lombards pronounced the word "pita". Marinara should already be a thing around 1848, if I am not very much mistaken it was the pizza fishermen had as a meal whenever there was a bad catch (from what I gather, in Naples the most...

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    That's a valid point. Of course, they'd be overwhelmed with numbers, but that's another matter. It escalated quickly or it wasn't a spur of the moment thing. Pick one. I'm not privy to the details of the responses by the Authorities; it was a difficult situation, certainly. Nonetheless...
  13. Allies reject Japan’s peace offer

    Downfall would give Stalin an opportunity to claim Hokkaido and potentially Honshu north of Sendai. Japanese casualties would number likely into the millions. Allied casualties of at least 150,000 and perhaps half a million - not necessarily including those from planned chemical warfare...

    1940 Campaign with a Cooperative Belgian Government?

    How would the German campaign in the West have gone if British and French troops had been allowed access to Belgian territory prior to the German invasion? Would this have had a major impact on German or Allied Fortunes??
  15. Fumbling through the Wilderness - a TL from 1918

    Thanks Pip! I had Labour stand down in Camberwell North West because I think the Independent Liberals would target Macnamara as a big prize (his own constituency effectively de-selected him) and if Labour stood down, Carroll would have won...

    Would a independent Confederacy change its flag again or keep the Blood Stained Banner?

    It is difficult to say. Personally, I think they'd bring back the Stars and Bars and turn the Blood Stained Banner into a Naval Ensign. Technically the Stars and Bars remained the official flag of the Confederacy, at least as far as the original 7 are concerned. It would largely depend on who is...

    Map Thread XX

    Map from the last chapter of my chronology: The Sun of Rocroi- A better Grand Condé The map shows the Brandenburg-Prussia Succession Crisis In 1638 Frederick Wilhelm died of measles, his father, Georg Wilhelm I, already burdened by the ravages of the Twenty-Five Years' War, did not recover and...
  18. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    Yes and no. If it works, by definition it ain't stupid, so the German Plan wasn't. That said, it IS generally stupid to bet the ranch on a massive strike that depends entirely on the enemy doing EXACTLY what you need them to do. Worked for Hitler once, failed In Barbarossa (Soviets didn't just...

    AHC: create an alternative linguistic remnant

    Well, one could see the continuation of Crimean Gothic if, indeed, it was descended from Gothic in the first place. Or, we could see greater settlement in the Crimea by Anglo-Saxon settlers after 1066 and the survival into modern times of Crimean Anglisc. Personally, I think having Galacian...
  20. Alternate warships of nations

    The British response to a lot of cheating was 10,000, 11,000 its not a massive difference and they aren't too far outside the rules. We know they are cheating but not by enough to walk out and trigger an arms race. Britain worked out the weight of every new ship give or take 5 % within 6...
