  1. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    There are examples of similar tank farms bombed by aircraft. A close look at all those is useful. may take is the japanese did not have remotely enough bombers on the carriers to lift the weight required for serious damage. Maybe they could have under optimal conditions put 20% of the fuel...
  2. The New Kratocracy: A Boulanger Coup TL

    A chapter? A chapter!? A CHAPTER!!! great, very interesting, can't wait to see what happens next and what is Egypt's relationship with France?
  3. Soviets beat Northrop with F-20 idea?

    And the Orao is also much less sophisticated and easier to build than what you're proposing. What's your point. That doesn't help much when the nose diameter is the bigger problem. Look, as you might have noticed in previous posts, I do think this is a good idea overall. But sticking with the...
  4. Why not cut off Gallipoli?

    I think the Turkish supply lines were by sea, not by land, so even if some portion of the Gallipoli peninsula was cut off from land routes to the rest of Turkey, Turkish defenders would still be adequately supplied due to their control of the Dardanelles and the Narrows. Since contesting these...
  5. WI: No Arab and Transatlantic Slave Trades

    Tell that to spain that used the natives of peru and bolivia for centuries in the silver and mercury mines despite the high casautlies
  6. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    There was a bit bit of dissonance in their thinking. Sort of like a bully, who is confronted by a clearly superior threat, but all he can think of is doubling down on insults, threats, and taking a swing...

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

    The scenario here is people would work for the UDI who OTL never would, as they see their homes and family under threat from the British army. It is going to force people to pick sides. Loyal to your oath to the crown or to your tribe. Stick with the crown and you may never be able to go home...
  9. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    A few other edutainment ideas. Once sound cards get good enough a music program to write music and virtually play instruments. You'd have the standards to keep the music class from fighting over the same instruments, and it's also a chance to introduce exotic and historic instruments. A travel...
  10. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    The Strategikon would have a brand new chapter on what to do with bad fighting infrastructure and how to improve it.
  11. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    The Pensacola Convoy for one. I am sure there would be others. Having the US do nothing is too much for the Japanese to hope for. 40 fighters and 50 dive bombers would have increased the threat level not talking a field artillery corps. I am sure more would have followed.
  12. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    If I remember correctly, Philip Augustus saw John as more easy to manipulate and thus signed the treaty that ultimately led to the ending of his support for Arthur
  13. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    I was about to say. the US Navy had already made the decision to expand the carrier fleet x3

    DBWI: A totally non-successful Beer Hall Putsch

    He inspired fellow Baseball Hall of Famer Minnie Minoso to run for President of his home country Cuba in the 60s.
  15. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    One of them was the Pensacola Convoy. The convoy escorted by USS Pensacola departed PH on 29 November 1941. It eventually ended up in Brisbane and some of the loaded troops / equipment made it as far as Java before either being captured by the Japanese or evacuating back to Australia. EDIT...

  17. Why not cut off Gallipoli?

    The German general commanding the Turkish defense had 3 divisions (out of 7 on the peninsula) before the allied landings at Bulair which is where you are suggesting Allies land. The obvious landing zone is only obvious if the enemy isn't there in force. I believe allied counter intelligence...

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

    The attitude of Heath is the strange part, It would not be the first time a British prime minister left it to the Army to decide what to do in Ireland. I wonder could the Queen withdraw the right to use the name Royal for the RUC on the advice of the government. OTL the RIC go the Royal as part...
