  1. Richard II dies in 1399

    So I think it's either Edmund I (Langley) or Henry IV (Bolingbroke)

    WI: Byzantine Emperor converts to Islam?

    If he's willing to return to Christianity, a blinding and exile to a monastery might be permitted. If not, well, it's burning alive time.

    For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    All I want for the Mars landing is for the US flag to be planted as a yeah you got to the Moon first but we got to Mars so :p. A bit childish I know but the ending of the last episode was about as American as football games, fatty cheeseburgers, and oversized cups that would make a doctor's...
  4. Richard II dies in 1399

    He was, indeed, he landed when Richard was in Ireland
  5. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    To be honest, it would make me feel bad if people get hurt just because they kill him (which, to be honest, is perfectly justified).
  6. Explain the AH Quote

    A quote by East African prime minister T'challa Eichmann about attempts by the Italian African Company to buy pieces of African land at extremely low prices. "I swear on my mother's grave, you shall never build that park!"
  7. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    Well, I guess Ireland's gonna be an ulcer and a half when England comes to blow with Scotland. Congratulation Leonard Grey, you'll be the first head to fall.
  8. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    No idea to be honest, this is all about thirty years before my time (and I was Signals rather than infantry so the only TA I worked with when I was in NI was 40 Signal Regiment). The regular units (from what I've read) had most of their full compliment of weapons even if they weren't used -...

    Richard II dies in 1399

    Isn’t Bolingbroke on his way back to England? If so I could see him getting some support.
  10. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    He didn't stop his work on the Southern California Rapid Transit District board for the films - he served for 11 years and had to break away from TMP filming for a crucial vote. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Takei Eastwood was Mayor of Carmel for 2 years during which time he produced...
  11. Richard II dies in 1399

    This is true, plus Langley did bend the knee to him otl.
  12. Richard II dies in 1399

    I think he's not going to do so, if he's going to throw his weight behind anyone it's going to be Bolingbroke - adult man with a lot of sons, close to ideal of Late Medieval monarchs.
  13. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    This was true in the North Atlantic but there may not have been a continuous decline in effectiveness because of the occasional success of peripheral operations like Drumbeat and Eisbar.
  14. Richard II dies in 1399

    But if Langley throws his weight behind him that's going to help no?
  15. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    Thanks for the information. I'd forgotten-t about the AVREs. Did the TAVR infantry battalions in Northern Ireland have a full heavy weapons company? With mortars and anti-tank weapons. The latter presumably being Wombats or Mobats rather than ATGM. Would they also gave Carl Gustavs for...
  16. Richard II dies in 1399

    I think that everyone's overestimating Mortimer, he's just a boy, he is not going to have many supporters.

    "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    I think you're labouring under the misapprehension that Operation Lifeline, as described, has been something of a success. With the situation you described: the best description for it would be a complete and utter fuck-up. It would be discovered that elements of the Irish Army were engaged...
  18. Richard II dies in 1399

    @material_boy
  19. Richard II dies in 1399

    Indeed, and of course assuming that Langley holds firm if Bolingbroke comes with an armed body of men
  20. Middle East without Christianity or Islam

    Well Christianity was unique in that it combined a bunch of things that the Romans didn't consider part of religion. For the Romans, religion was the ritual maintenance of cults of gods and goddesses, a pretty much completely separate affair from philosophy and social welfare/community...
