  1. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Anthrax isn't that efficient of a killer. You do not have any real sort of human to human transmission, save that if you get sick enough that it kills you, your body then becomes a source for spores indefinitely (which is why you burn cattle/sheep carcasses if they are infected). To get that...
  2. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Well, take comfort in the fact that this isn't the Berlin you love. The Reich is still in need of additional persuasion.:eek:
  3. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Update time! Comments encouraged. 43 Even before the Himmler Offensive ground to a halt Christmas 1958 had become a nightmare across the Inner Reich. The massive Anglo/American nuclear retaliation strikes had, in a few hours, ripped the heart out of much of Germany’s infrastructure and had...
  4. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    2 Million refers to the number of people who were actually dead by the time the bombers landed due to the immediate direct blast/heat flash/massive fires caused by the bombs. 3.5 million is longer term (up to six months) as hundreds of thousands die from various injuries, including extreme...
  5. British Victory in the Indian Ocean 1942?

    Well this one is pretty simple: 450 miles out, 450 miles back = 900 miles Aircraft travels at 100-110 mph (plus time to form up, call it 30 minutes) That makes time in the air somewhere between 8:42:00 - 9:30:00. I rounded it to 9 hours. I will admit that the 110 MPH is a bit of a stretch...
  6. British Victory in the Indian Ocean 1942?

    If Somerville (damn, I hate it when I screw up important things like that, thanks for the correction) launched at close to max range (call it 450 miles, to allow for form up into formation) that means a 9 hours mission. That requires either a launch well before sunset (which puts the strike in...
  7. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Actually, the nuke strikes have already killed around 2,000,000 people from direct blast/heat flash effects.
  8. British Victory in the Indian Ocean 1942?

    The Blenheimn attack falls under the "miracle hit" scenario. However, it failed. The same can be said for a night torpedo attack in early 1942. You might get lucky, but that would be all it would be, luck. To do it, Cunningham has to move well within the strike range of Nagumo's B5N force and...
  9. British Victory in the Indian Ocean 1942?

    Otside of a miracle lucky hit the British didn't have a chance in hell against Nagumo's force. Unlike the Americans at Midway, the RN couldn't send aircraft at the IJN carriers that had a reasonable hope of success, Fulmars were simply not going to cut it either as a CAP to defend the fleet or...
  10. What if the Japanese carriers at Pearl Harbor just stayed?

    Two Marine Defense Battalions (3rd & 4th), two U.S. Army infantry Divisions (24th & 25th) less the 299th Battalion that was detached to the other Islands, four coastal artillery regiments, four AAA regiments (3", 40mm, 20mm, .50 cal), plus the Hawaiian NG units (as well as the rest of the...

  12. WI: Michael Moore a conservative

    Well, he might actually have a sense of humor in that case.

  14. Gran Columbia and Isolationist West

    Okay, you want to be kicked, who am I to stand in the way? Take a few days, take a deep breath, and decide if you want to actually act in a civil manner. Kicked for a week.

  17. Gran Columbia and Isolationist West

    Okay, No Economics. How about basic polite behavior? You are way off the reservation with your reaction to totally valid feedback. If you do not want feedback, both good AND bad, don't post half done efforts. Since you are brand new, this is an Official Warning. Next time... Well, let's be...
  18. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Actually he sent the three officers in the Waffen SS command structure who ordered the retreat to the Eastern Frontier to command mine clearing companies. Life expectancy for such commanders is measured in pico-seconds.
  19. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Here is the newest update. Comments encouraged. 42 Often overshadowed by the truly apocalyptic events that coincide with it, the actual combat surrounding the rupturing of the Allied front on December 12th represent some of the most dramatic and insightful actions of the entire land...
  20. V2 hits Moscow!

    The V-2 had a max range of around 400 kilometers and carried a 2,000 pound warhead. By the time the V-2 was operational the Germans had been pushed back into Poland. Even if, by some miracle, the Luftwaffe manged to transport a missile into range and managed to hit Red Square (itself far...
