  1. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    The rains start in Late April (and in 1942 in Burma they lasted until November IIRC)
  2. Sārthākā

    Why not cut off Gallipoli?

    Over a majority of Turkish supplies came by sea.
  3. What-if SMG for late 1930s and on

    Select fire Sterling SMG in 9x25mm 'Imperial' - this is a modernised version of the 9x25mm Mauser cartridge but 'hotter' with a bullet optimised for higher velocity Basically 'The OTL Sterling' but not wedded to the 9x19mm Para and the need to be backwards compatible with STEN gun magazines...
  4. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    Two Nobel Prize laureates tried to use their formula for what prices should be for derivatives and founded Long Term Capital Management which did very well for two years and then collapsed because in reality even two Nobel Prize winners could not get the pricing right. Two Nobel Prize winning...

    Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    Been thinking the same myself. Changed :) - BNC

    Dunkirk Disaster causes Spain and Soviet Union to join Axis.

    I'm sure the Soviets would definitely willingly ally with the Nazis. Hitler would also just throw out the Judeo Bolshevik portion of his ideology. No issues there! This of course causes no issues with German society or Italian partnership. Oh and Spain somehow survives on fumes and German...
  7. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Given the shoestring the Japanese operated on I would think that holding the Japanese up in Malaya would greatly delay the fall of the DEI, resources would need to be pumped into Malaya to try to defeat the British there.
  8. Middle East without Christianity or Islam

    So, is the region likely to have an upper class of Tengri overlords for centuries or will the Turks eventually go native with one of the religions?
  9. What-if SMG for late 1930s and on

    Why not both...? Dumb question- Would it be feasible to make an SMG with modular barrels and magazine adapters en masse to accomodate 6.5x25mm, 7.62x25mm, and 9x19mm ammunition?
  10. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    And I am particularly impressed with how well the STS hardware was used ITTL. Talk about lemonade from lemons! The Shuttle we deserved--or rather, the Shuttle of hindsight, in RSU. In retrospect, it's clear--reuse the booster, because it's easier to recover and refurbish, and it's bigger so...

  12. These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    Is the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and books at the time when the British rampaged Hamilton D.C. gets looted? In New York, I guess there will be a fewer skyscrapers than OTL and OFC with no Statue of Liberty.
  13. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    Not many merchant ships either, Eventually submarines became the big merchant marine killer. The dive bomber and even the medium bomber, particularly in the gunship variant, made a contribution but the B-17/B-24 accounted for few ships. Their best role, mainly the B-24 and its navy...
  14. Dunkirk Disaster causes Spain and Soviet Union to join Axis.

    You forgot the Italian mafia taking over NYC and the great Irish uprising in Boston
  15. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    I do not think anyone is claiming what went on in OTL was effective on any level. The argument is what the better idea would be (and perhaps how to sell it to the Brass/Public).
  16. List of monarchs III

    What if Frederick was removed from the line of succession due to the Katte Affair? Monarchs in Prussia 1713-1740. Frederick William I (House of Hohenzollern) 1740-1740. Sophia Dorothea as Regent (House of Hannover) 1740-1746. Augustus William I (House of Hohenzollern) [1] Monarchs of Prussia...

    AHC: early 1900s anarchists notice that American mobsters often seen as Robin Hood figures — and go this route?

    For the record, the dude who shot Franz Ferdinand was a Serbian nationalist, not an anarchist. By definition, a nationalist trying to create a Serbian state is not an anarchist. The First Red Scare, while partially a consequence of illegalist anarchist activities, was also a response to largely...
  18. WIP Map Thread

    I was going to tell you about that. Anyways, I'm not sure if I should detach it from Orenburg State and give it to another state. Aesthetically it would be best off in the westernKazakh state, but on ethnic grounds it belongs in the mostly-Russian northern Kazakh state, or just with Orenburg.
