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

    I don't think X1 Mask's role in the original series needs to be changed in order for the American adaptation to have a permanent 6th ranger. Regardless of whether the Bio-Force franchise has multiple continuities or an overarching story, Saban should have a firmer grasp on the formula and be...

    What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    it's not exactly a cliche if its actually true. 763,000 Reported deaths and estimated 1.2 million starvation deaths did not happen for nothing.
  3. How long can Germany delay defeat without allied use of nuclear bombs still at least 1950s

    This times a thousand. By a 1942 PoD, Germany is already committed to the biggest mistake imaginable (Barbarossa), everything the Western Allies do after that is just speeding up the inevitable. The Pain Train has left the station on a nonstop route to Berlin. Hell, by 1942 they've not only...
  4. What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    There you go. Cliche. Starving Germans will hold out. Effete British will collapse the moment the tea is late.
  5. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    You know that hasn't been a thing since the mid 80s. Interestingly the Americans are trying to kill the kangaroo skin industry again. It is hard to explain "cute" isn't everything to some people.
  6. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    TLDR, cheaters never prosper. Too bad :P *sad trombone plays*
  7. what if the vikings went to china

    but then you consider the rumors circulating of a vast kingdom of gold to the east
  8. what if the vikings went to china

    Taking a bunch of Norsemen into the tropical heat is not a good idea, especially if there's no loot to offer on the other end. The seas of West Africa were brutal for sailors suppressing the slave trade. The dangerous currents and rocks make sailing south difficult. Dragging ships overland...
  9. How far does Communism spread if the US is disinterested?

    Which is what Engels predicted - withering away of the state. Or bloodbath, considering that in most of the countries, the communist rule would require mass violence directed by the government against large sectors of society - rich, priests, etc. Communist party of Italy was on the verge of...
  10. AHC: Largest possible Finnish-American population

    New Sweden did try to import Forest Finns. The problem there, as far as I've understood, was a high rate of defection to the local tribes, whose style of life seemed more appealing than staying a Swedish subject.
  11. Portuguese Cabo- a TL

    I also think so. So, they will want some bases in SA area. First the Dutch, then English. For example, Walvis Bay, Durban and Maputo seem like good such places.
  12. Anybody else read Summerland?

    As for the rest of the world, mentions of Edison and Tesla (plus a certain wariness about the US) implies that America is also in the grips of an Aetheric Revolution, while the British are promising Franco aid in constructing his own little slice of the Summer City. There's a mention of a Pope...

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

    Assuming that Saben does to Bio Force what he did with Power Rangers he could stretch Bioman into multiple seasons. Also for a proper sixth to appear on Bio Force we'll have to either wait until Zyuranger or alter Maskman's X1 Mask's roll on Maskman. Maskman could maybe redeem Magne Warrior from...
  14. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Such a timeline would be amazing just for the fact on how OTL Italian delegation at Versailes would react to TTL Italy and see just HOW MUCH their nation could have gain if the have just stayed loyal to the Triple Alliance who ACTUALLY kept their promises unlike the Entente. As well as the...

    WI: Italy Joined The Entente Instead Of The Triple Alliance/Joined The Entente Early

    italy's joining of the triple alliance with AH and Germany is a bit of an oddity when one considers their relationship with Austria was always... less than pleasant due to Italian adriatic claims. Now, even against France they had some desires (i believe tunis and some minor claims against the...
  16. If Song China industrialized would Europe have remained a backwater?

    Song Dynasty China was thoroughly entrenched in the Confucian model of governance, if they industrialized it would be the merchants operating the trade of silk and other Chinese goods who actually build up the corpus of industrialization. The government bureaucracy, with its focus on classical...

    Photos from 1983: Doomsday

    In this Oct. 9, 1982 file photo, Britain's Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip looks back as they drive through the crowd of athletes and officials during the closing ceremony of the 12th Commonwealth Games, in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Sports Centre, Brisbane, Australia. Post in honor of...

    Dunkirk Disaster causes Spain and Soviet Union to join Axis.

    Yes. That is the same hindsight that would tell them there is an obvious alternative to being so dependent on, and easily blackmailable by, the Soviets: don't start a war with everybody else! The Anglo-Americans are more than capable of destroying Germany even without the Soviets anyway. But...
  19. How long can Germany delay defeat without allied use of nuclear bombs still at least 1950s

    The problem is that there still is the Soviet behemoth coming in from the east that will still do tremendous damage and will grind down Germany, no matter what they do. And even Stalin dying won't do the trick. Not against a clearly genocidal enemy.
