    WI: Apollo 13 becomes the most expensive suborbital flight in history?

    Pretty much what it says on the tin, 5 minutes 40 seconds into the flight, the pogo oscillations on the center engine cause the thrust frame of the S-II to crack, forcing a Mode II abort. Apollo 13 splashes down in the Atlantic minutes later. How does this affect the space program to have the...
  2. America Be Watching With The Popcorn: A Sino-Soviet War TL

    I didn’t know that Taiwan delayed democracy for so long, wow. Makes me think of Singapore and to a lesser extent South Korea in regards to having an “enlightened despot” build up the country before democratizing (gross oversimplification, I know). In regards the HK and Macau though, the British...

    Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    First of all I absolutely love your explanation for Mac. You have really changed my mind about him. I also saw him as a arrogant, control freak who wanted to bomb China and that's why he was fired by Trueman. Also interesting how Mac made Dulles Ambassador to Australia. As an Australian I know...

    Nooo, Ben Franklin's documents that's awful omg, did they just throw them away because they didn't care about them? Or
  5. RJ Mitchell does not get cancer

    600 nm range is easy, Spitfire with a drop tank can do it even if the Hercules is in the nose. The 600 nm range = 200 nm comba radius, give or take. Drop tanks are a known thing in 1930s. Spitfire also ticks the boxes of the guns specified. Hercules makes a lot of power down low already from the...
  6. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    A showdown with Hoover and Mac is isolated from crises due to Almond and no phone in the office. This could end badly several different ways. Also, why did he hang up a portrait of Robert E. Lee? I get that it was more acceptable to revere the guy publicly back then (and lamentably still is to...
  7. Alternate 'Overlord' US Forces are swapped with British & Commonwealth, what's the consequences?

    No less likely than the British pulling off Albany and Boston.
  8. List of monarchs III

    You can name the children but you can't say who actually succeeds him. Naming the daughters but without giving when they die allows the open end to have them or their children, or other, succeed.
  9. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    I'm wondering if McArthur will end up sacking any generals to show civilian control of the military?

    Or if the flag unfurls and it's India, Japan or China
  12. WI: HRE Matthias has a son

    Matthias' next brother becomes interim emperor in 1619, in the hope that he survices until Maximilian is old enough. So we might see Emperor Albrecht III or Maximilian III TTL
  13. These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    Then, what would the logo of ABC News from AmeriNet would look like? What about the nuclear weapons?
  14. Middle East without Christianity or Islam

    On the contrary, there was a much greater degree of unification in Indian philosophy than Roman paganism, despite the political fragmentation. Sure, there were different religious practices and specific cults, but they all worked within the same core philosophical framework developed from...

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

    If you are going to use the PFC website, be careful to use only the original documents and double check everything. The PFC site hints at being impartial but the language and style of writing is not professional, e.g. using Literally hundreds to start a sentence is emotive and can be...

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    Mississippi is one of three black-majority states in my TL, so it's far larger because, without a Jim Crow period, it's wealthier and better developed, and becomes something like OTL Georgia. Vicksburg has over 500,000 residents. I did screw up the color keys so I fixed that. The inset in NY...
