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

    Okay. At least they own a portion of the franchise. No big. Hey, maybe we can get an attraction based on the character, where ALF mocks the audience any and every chance he gets? Sort of like a proto-Turtle Talk with Crush in terms of the technology needed, but more cynical in its interactivity.
  2. If Song China industrialized would Europe have remained a backwater?

    also to add europe was not a backwater in the song era sure in 960 it was not as advanced as it but it was still rising it had defeated most of its outside invaders and the climate change by the end of the northern song in the 12 th century europe had already cougth up to the islamic world and...
  3. Dunkirk Disaster causes Japan to attack Britain in December 1940

    Genuine question here. Pretty much every point you bring up has been countered or refuted by others in previous threads, why not use the knowledge gained from their assessments to work on an actual workable scenario rather than drilling the same thing over and over?
  4. WWII: German Victory in Battle of Britain, could USSR win alone?

    ...that are liberally supported with artillery (for some reason all the old Bolshevik commanders LOVED artillery above all else) and anti-tank guns* with Panzers that are, in the main, really tankettes is not a good idea. There is also the inescapable reality that once the Heer is in a...
  5. How long can Germany delay defeat without allied use of nuclear bombs still at least 1950s

    Except that isn't going to happen, the cold hard constraints of logistics are a permanent brake on Rommel. The closer he gets to Cairo the more overextended the Afrikacorps becomes.

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    In this vein, my tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh. The Right Honourable, Sir Philip Mountbatten MP.
  7. WI: Confucius praises merchants

    well you remove the social aspect of china treating them like the bottom of society ( like most of the world) how ever that doesn't necessarily prevent the bureaucrats from giving them unfair red tape in terms of political reason .
  8. HMS Audacious

    AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    Best retreating up the boot and doing some editing work so it flows better
  9. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    I always thought that the stringbag was used in the roles which are now covered by helicopters - except for VTOL of course.

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    Speaking of tankies how fun would you say Yagoda is? I’m planning to play as him.
  11. Prolonging the Futility: A WW2 European TL

    Hmm, the Germans surrounded 200,000 soldiers on Christmas Eve and secured their surrender in one week? Sorry, even rolling all the sixes you like it ain't happening. Even the massively outnumbered Stalingrad pocket far behind enemy lines and isolated from support held out for months. The...
  12. The Sudeten War: History of the World after an Alternate 1938

    What about jet aircraft and rocket technology in the TL?

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

    Discworld did have some animated series OTL, iirc, so yes it can work under Disney if Mort is successful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soul_Music_(TV_series) Maybe we'll get to see more expansive adaptations of Discworld novels...?
  14. Miscellaneous <1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    When was the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman, etc.) doomed to collapse? Battle of Manzikiert? 4th Crusade? Sometime else?
  15. RiverDelta

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe Thread II

    In my experience, it comes from a lot of nonsensical hearsay from other tankies and reading clearly slanted sources. I was never a tankie, but that was the sense I got.
  16. 2018 Presidential Election

    Yes as Tim's says. He turned 90, last October.
  17. Allies reject Japan’s peace offer

    With the number of "Bond girls" I'm surprised there would only be one.
  18. Hearts of Iron IV "Fictionalization."

    Hmm aight then
  19. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    The RN would give the RM the fuel to move to Venice or Trieste. As much use there as sitting on the bottom at Taranto.
  20. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    You're changing the scale. Victory in each campaign, battle, engagment, etc, small or big, is defined by who reaches their objectives. Victory in war is defined by who reaches their objectives for the whole war, not by adding up intermediate/partial objectives. Saying you can loose many...
