  1. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    Possibly the unrest that will come will cause a crisis in Tudor England, as in the event of war, England's opponents might get the idea of supporting an Irish rebellion
  2. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I would hope nothing farther than say 1992. That allows them to have basically most of the next presidency off screen and pick up with a new generation ready to take office and go to Mars ? The question will be who are they ? Also I hope they plan on giving us another primer about major events...
  3. WI English displaces popularity of indigenous Scandinavian languages starting from the 1800s

    I always get confused by the term 'Scandinavia' but I will lose it liberally for this 'What if.' I shall be referring to the nations (in no particular order) of Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Greenland... So... A gradual process beginning in 1800 with most...
  4. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    This is a good resource
  5. What if the Mark 71 8"/55 gun wasn't cancelled?

    Now I'm imagining that what became the LCS progran due to say 16 or so the modern USS Caronade equivalents being built is to divide it into a minesweeper class with decent self protection abilities and a proper replacement for the Perrys. Mind you the Constellations will be rather good but...

    Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    9/10 no Sagallo.
  7. Thousand-Week Reich - A 'realistic' Nazi victory scenario

    From the reddit With the fall of France, Spain decided to occupy the Moroccan protectorate and turn it into a Spanish territory under the reign of Mohammed V of the Alaouite Dynasty. While the Alaouites have been rather quiet under their Spanish lords, Moroccan independence movements have...
  8. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    No offence to our NI posters, but lets call a spade a spade, NI can't fund itself in this situation. There are no tax rises, no duties or tariffs that it can put in place that can sustain it's spending even on a "normal" situation, in a UDI with god knows how much chaos and violence...
  9. Balkanized U.S.A

    Map Thread XX

    Poor Japan. Especially the fact that in the earliest version of this scenario Japan actually managed to keep everything from the Interwar.
  10. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    I'm not saying all of this to say that the USSR was Japan or that the USSR's method of planning was similar to Japan's but simply to say that your argument that planning is antithetical to quality is out and out wrong. Japan's industrial policy post-WW2 was the logical evolution of the WW2 US...
  11. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    I don't think the devs made a clear cut allusion for Oceania. At least, it could be said that there are vague resemblances that are spread out to multiple nations/options. Like how Zykov, Stalina and Pokryshkin are altogether analogous of Putinist Russia in some respects, to an extent. I suppose...
  12. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    The Heer, specifically, is in better manpower shape and has a further east front against the Soviets. But ... they're also doing much worse in that there's a Greek front, and the Allies are doing so much better that they can do OVERLORD and DRAGOON simultaneously.
  13. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    A most interesting question-- and one which will be revealed in due time! The answer would contain too many spoilers for me to reveal it just yet......

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

    I prefered Summer in Dublin ;) ;)
  15. Was the first Sino-Japanese war the last chance to save the Qing?

    I believe so, yes. The prestige from a military victory against an imperialist aggressor (even if a small one compared to the European powers) and the economic boost of not having to pay for a gigantic indemnity would do wonders for the Qing. Perhaps with this the Guangxu emperor can (or...
  16. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Dear readers, This, in my test thread, can't pretend for a micro-second to be 'on topic' with regards to Place In the Sun and so it doesn't really belong here... but it is (in my opinion) funny nonetheless and fits into the culture of the Board. -Kaiser Wilhelm the Tenth
  17. What if the Mark 71 8"/55 gun wasn't cancelled?

    'Boghammer' - thank you I was trying to think of the term (its a Swedish made ship that they Iranians bought that gave the name IIRC?)

    And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    ...and @ninja4x8 - Well, it was one of these random historical Easter Eggs I like throwing away. But then, one can dream about some weird-as-sh*t alt-Prussia growing inside the Byzantine Empire, eventually supplanting it like they did with the HRE vis-a-vis Germany. @TickTock The Witch's Dead...
  19. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    Shouldn't the Germans be doing marginally better seeing as there's significantly more of them with no Stalingrad/Tunisia/Bagration around to inflict hundreds of thousands more casualties OTL than TTL? Tough to say for sure given the field-level view from the vignettes but it seems like they're...
  20. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    OTL she did not make any sinking's in her first 4 patrols - her 5th being somewhat more successful in that she famously sank the Shinano - the largest ship ever sunk by a submarine on the 28th Nov 1944. I wonder who she has chanced across here?
