  1. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Bomb is still available, but the Allies, for reasons related to a evolution in thinking toward civilian casualties (mostly due to a sense of guilt over starving 10 million or so Japanese civilians to death with the blockade) have, so far, been unwilling to unleash it except in the case of...
  2. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The difficulty is that the the Europeans aren't really fighting like the Japanese (except perhaps the SS and the Fascist believers and even they are not quite at the same level) but because the resistance was far more severe than expected. The Anglo/Americans were rather shocked at the losses...
  3. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Here is the next update. Comments are always welcome. 13 The Allies had hoped to follow Operation Thorn Bush with Operation Gravel within a matter of days. As events proceeded it was closer to two months than two weeks before the Allies struck next. Weather over the Continent caused several...
  4. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    I actually love flying boats, especially the P6M SeaMaster, but they are also fairly impractical, especially in the North Atlantic compared to a carrier. The USN has lavished attention on its carrier force, including construction of SEVEN Midway Class CVA. The USN has jumped onto the Angled...
  5. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Western economies are sort of a mixture of better than IOTL & worse. The U.S. hasn’t had the enormous wave of consumer spending that characterized OTL’s 1950s, but it also hasn’t pumped $25,000,000,000 in 1948 dollars into the rebuilding of Europe (as happened between OTL’s 1945-1951)...
  6. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Patience is a virtue. :D I'll get the next post up soon, hopefully this weekend, and it will detail another landing.
  7. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    It does. I have already mentioned some of it (the carrier force, the Vanguard BB, the Hawker Hunter) in earlier posts, but some of it I haven't discussed, and some I hadn't had time to reasearch, so thanks.:) Alas, the Buccaneer, along with the F-4 Phantom II and UH-1 Huey, are not quite ready...
  8. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The map about says it. Most of the South American countries, especially those with an Atlantic or Caribbean coastline, have, at the least, declared support for the Allies. Brazil has a couple divisions of infantry committed, Mexico has a Brigade, and Argentina has a division of infantry...
  9. Panzer VIII Maus

    Ya, but Bull didn't try to make his space gun mobile, so it only hits 8.7 on the crazy meter.
  10. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The North is, as IOTL, still very much part of the UK. Eire has tried to stay out of the whole bloody mess, as much because of the lasting dislike of London as anything else, but it is difficult to really treat the two sides the same, the Reich has been so obviously brutal, especially in the...
  11. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Both the Swedes and Swiss have done their best to remain neutral. Obviously they have had to face economic reality andtheir trade, especially for the Swiss, is nearly all with New Europe (the Swedes were able to get some shipping in and out as long as they didn't interfere with Iron ore...
  12. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Anti-ship missiles are in roughly the same status as IOTL, at least for the Allies. The Reich is slightly behind in some areas, again due to the transistor issue, although the Reich is also behind in millimeter radar tech, but they have some dangerous weapons. Three of these ASM cost the USN the...
  13. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Lots of questions there. :D The Reich and its "allies" really have zero presence in Africa. ITTL Hitler prevailed on Mussolini to avoid the Med until the Soviets were defeated. By the time the USSR had fallen, the Allies were too thick on the ground for Italy to get frisky. The second map (not...
  14. Can United States Conquer the World?

    You must be new here. Everyone agreeing on the conclusion, but debating why they agree is the core of many of our longest threads. You'll get used to it. Eventually. :D:p:D
  15. Can United States Conquer the World?

    Pretty much right on. Conquerers have to be right bastards to do it properly, even the British Empire was more of an occupier than a true conquerer (compare the situation with the Mohawk under British control with the Inca under Spain & you'll see what I mean). I believe that it is pretty much...
  16. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Ol' George is 72, pushing 73, he's alive but hardly in any shape for even a paper command. Ike is 68. Bradley is 65.
  17. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    Sweden is neutral . They have been Real Poltik about it considering the country is effectively surrounded by the Reich, but this will shift as the Allies get better control of Southern Norway. The SS will need to send troops around Sweden, through occupied Russia, to reinforce the remaining...
  18. The Anglo/American - Nazi War

    The Invasion of Europe is just beginning and France promises to be... Interesting. The Reich is still turning out A4 & A9 missiles. The factories are, understandably, prime targets, as are the component manufacturing facilities. The rate of production has been impacted, but missiles are...
  19. Can United States Conquer the World?

    First, lets get the meaning of the word clear, at least as I am using it. Conquered is what happened to the Anglo-Saxons in 1066 and to the Cherokee in 1828, not what happened to France in 1940. 1945 Nazi Germany was Conquered. 1991 Iraq was defeated. Huge difference. Conquered means you...
  20. Timeline Request

    Actually it won't change a damned thing. The Far East Front was always kept at full strength, despite all the Intel that Stalin had regarding Japan's intentions. The "Siberians" of lore were actually Central Asians for the most part who picked up new equipment as they crossed into the European...
