  1. A Shift in Priorities - Sequel

    British nuclear security devices on bombs in OTL were probably the most simple ones from all nuclear powers and that up until end of 1990s. The usual device was according to BBC a normal bike padlock. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7097101.stm
  2. How would the Incan/Aztec Empire deal with European diseases without a successful European invasion

    By percentage terms, apparently Cocoliztli was more devastating than the initial waves of smallpox et al. The conquest years in Mexico killed off roughly a third of the population; the fallout of 1545 took 4 out of 5 survivors. Which is all the more striking because Cocoliztli was just...
  3. Could the USSR work well enought on its orthodox form to be a pleasant place in modern day?

    Unless they strongly subsidized companies it wouldn't matter. Bankrupt companies can't employ people.

  5. Pop-culture of the Kaiserreich

    Since Hedy Lamarr never left Europe to go to Hollywood, who are major actresses in 1937?
  6. What if the Mark 71 8"/55 gun wasn't cancelled?

    Join the club. Cheap, low manpower requirements, quick to build, shallow draft, and 8 beautiful auto matic rotating dual tube rocket launchers firing 5 inch rockets. Each rocket launcher could fire 30 rockets a minute ( or 15 rockets per each 16 rocket tubes) for a magificent 240 5 inch rockets...
  7. The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    With Edmund's preference for honesty, it was expected :)
  8. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    The only way that Germany could stop US industrial production being used against it in Europe, whether the US and Germany are at war or not, is to close to Atlantic convoy routes. This requires war with the US.
  9. TL-191: After the End

    Regarding education, does the US teach about things like what happened to the Armenians or is that something that is just awkwardly ignored due to having been allies with the Ottomans at the time? Also given that you have Austria-Hungary being fairly stable, did they do something like deport the...
  10. Greek Style colonization by the Maya

    That was a great timeline. It's dormant right now though. A lot of the ideas are the same although that is a Taino civilisation, not a Maya one. Other than that I think this TL would look much similar to that one overall.
  11. American Conservatism without Goldwater and Reagan

    Reagan wouldn't even exist. The most likely POD is that there is no Mexican-American War.

    The Mare Nostrum doctrine: an alternate Italian Empire

    You forgot some Wikipedia references.
  14. DBWI: A totally non-successful Beer Hall Putsch

    Johnson was a pretty good president and his background is interesting. From baseball pitcher for the Washington Senators to an actual senator of Kansas to President of the United States. His death in 1946 from brain cancer was tragic, but it didn't make him more newsworthy.
  15. The Last Hanover: The Life and Reign of Queen Charlotte

    I’m very excited to see who ends up becoming Queen regnant
  16. AHC: Royal/Imperial US President

    For clarification, they don't have to be born outside the US. For example, if a member of the Imperial House of Japan moves to the US and has a child, that child counts for the challenge. They also don't have to be actual claimants, just be close to the family genetically, IE Nephew, Cousin...

    The Tudor Rose over Brittania

    Glad to see that Edmund and madeleine’s marriage is beginning on a good note.
  18. Proposals and War Aims That Didn't Happen Map Thread

    Do y'all forget that Schleswig was taken from Denmark by Prussia in 1864, who then also reneged on a promise to hold a referendum on returning north Schleswig to Denmark?

    The Forge of Weyland

    Well a wargaming example On a Church hall floor many years ago As the Hood I went for an all or nothing play and hit the Bismark with all 8 Shells - great distance guessing..... We had special rule for that game that the germans ignored the first couple of criticals - but I then managed to...
