  1. No Kriegsmarine cruisers or modern destroyers

    And also maybe the mine laying role of destroyers can be taken up by other craft like F boats /M boats etc
  2. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    There were other factors in this. One was when CNO King reversed previous Navy policy of zero information to the Press. He disliked the press, but realized the Navy would not get the support it needed if the public did not understand how serious the war was. This resulted in a much more open...
  3. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    Where are they coming from? I, quite literally, listed production numbers for B-17 C/D/E models through 28 May, 1942. If the U.S. is not at war with Germany, which is the supposition of this scenario, then General Marshall's pre-war statement that "every B-17 in the World should be in the...
  4. What-if SMG for late 1930s and on

    Now that we're at small calibers. The 5.7mmx28 and .22 WMR are probably at the low end, with muzzle energies between 410-530J. Higher powered bracket is populated by the intermediate cartridges of Western and Easter prominence, with ME of 1400-1900J, with the 5.45mmx39 being the with the lowest...

  6. WI: Crete Never Falls to the Nazis

    I would need to spend some effort researching it. From recollection an RAF Class A airbase required 90,000 tonnes of material which was not available domestically in Crete. Given that all the good Ports in Crete are on the North of the island we would need to work out the port capacity that's...

    Explain the AH Quote

    British Prime Minister and leader of the UK-in-Exile government Winston Churchill (1878-1965) in 1952, when describing the war crimes of the French Empire during the Great War (1941-1947), in particular, their use of said weapons upon American soldiers, the nearest enemy towns possible...
  8. Byzantines conquer most (or all) of Spain?

    And some of them would not convert to not become roman
  9. Byzantines conquer most (or all) of Spain?

    Alternatively, some of them could convert to gain Constantinople's favor.
  10. Byzantines conquer most (or all) of Spain?

    Yeah, I think the Loire + the Rhône is as far as they could plausibly go too.
  11. The camp David Accords fail

    Say sadat is assassinated before the talks even start, would there be another egyptian-israeli war?
  12. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    I don't think the question can really be answered in full, since "pleasant" is both difficult to define and extremely subjective (I have absolutely no doubt you could find large numbers of people in any society who would describe their lives as pleasant at least some of the time). "Orthodox"...

    An Imperial Match: Anne Boleyn marries Charles V

    She's eleven years older than Francis
  14. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    You’re missing out the part where they all held the view that the Republic and it’s forces were illegitimate, so yeah don’t expect them to play nice with the DF (or the DF with them)
  15. Germany absolutely crushed by Allied offensive 1919

    Obviously butterflies, but I don't know of anything that can overcome Soviet advantages really. For the 6 extra months the Allies are going to be treating the Soviets as German collaborators still. The Allies will launch efforts out of Archangel sort of OTL, but longer, they would try to retake...

    AHCWI: Milanese Italy

    Milan is a wealthy, industrial part of Italy that was powerful during the Renaissance. However, with the rise of the hapsburgs, it fell into the spaniosh branch before being ceded to the Austrians and then getting Napoleoned (which I promise is a very real technical term for "got conquered by an...

    Alternate History Excercise: Create non-Abrahamic, Abrahamic Syncretic, Alternative Abrahamic Religions in Europe!

    This would take place far before 800 AD, but what if the Greco-Roman mystery cults had syncretized and unified into some kind of pan-Mediterranean pantheon? Very ASB, given the secretive nature of said cults and their less than friendly relationship with the established power structure of Rome...
  18. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I’m sure Red may have seen this but this could give some ideas if not: The trick is having the US and Mexico not have an antagonistic relationship. Maybe Max gives up any claims to the A-H throne and annuls any European alliances in exchange for US recognition and cooperation?

    DBWI: Market Garden Instead Of Scheldt Battle

    There no way that the Tanks could have move as fast as the plan called for going up a single road. I would not want to be the guys at Arnhem , since they would have had to hold out far more then the 48 hours that the plan called for. And I thought I read that a Panzer unit was resting at Arnhem...

    Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I doubt either side would ever agree to that. The Republicans see the French as foreign invaders who launched an unprovoked war of aggression and have zero right to be there- which is pretty much true. The French see the Republican forces as rabble, and agreeing to a constitutional monarchy...
