  1. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    Rather than the Moon going off into the Universe it would have made more sense for something to have sent a space station haring off into the unknown.

    How much could a surviving PLC polonise?

    considering the low degree of colonization of the Austrian-Hungarian empire and the Russian empire I would say not very much. They have very immediate concerns that aren't well addressed by colonization and any colonization will have to go through naval bottlenecks.
  3. 1820s-1850s Southern Federalists

    I've always felt that the Federalist party might have done better if not as many British loyalists had left the country after the ARW.

    WI Radovan [Son of Demetrius Zvonimir] Had Survived?

    Sadly no, got some IRL issues that need to be worked out and wouldn't be able to give it a 100% effort. Not talking about inheritance, merely potential closer alliance ties.
  5. Horus Triumphant - an Alternate Antiquity timeline

    I forgot that Perdiccas was already married to Roxana, so I changed Thessalonike's husband to Ptolemaios, who was married to Artakama' sister Artonis, but she died soon after (see update 28). I made it to have an overview of the members of the dynasty, but I don't intend this to be a 'dynastic'...

    Threadmarks: 1962 in politics around the world

    1962 in politics around the world 1962 proved to be a time of major change in global affairs. The United Kingdom Harold Macmillan’s popularity is in decline after a series of losses in by-elections to members of the Liberal Party. Following a period of dissatisfaction with Macmillan’s...
  7. Timur invades India (fully)

    1.He's gonna loose fast, central Asian horses are useless beyond the Ganges, that's why almost all central Asian nomads stopped at the ganges, you need arabian horses for deccan campaign. 2. I really doubt 2 million people died in a span of 6 months in an era before machine gun. 3. Before...
  8. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    They're all valid points. Re the not very interesting/boring/felt like our parents & teachers cast I think they could have had characters that were realistic and interesting with better casting and better writing. My favourite characters from Series 1 were Alan Carter and Victor Bergman which...

  10. DBWI: Russia sold Alyeska to the United States?

    I'd be really curious how this would affect the Crisis Summer of '65. Instead of the US countering the Soviet nukes in Nicaragua with their own in friendly Alyeska, the US will already have bases and siloes there. Maybe the Soviets never dare and don't even try it? But the Crisis Summer and the...

  12. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    While there may be more fuel in Italy, it is unlikely to be under naval control. The oil shortage in the Regia Marina was just starting to bite at this point (first official fuel use restrictions were January 41) so the fuel at Taranto will probably be the majority of the reserves they have...
  13. Most likely end date for World War I without American involvement?

    Still 1918, or at latest early 1919, depending how the German offensive goes. If it succeeds, then the continental[1] war is over by Summer 1918. If it fails, then abt the same time as OTL or slightly later. In the latter case, and if the US trops have been replaced by more British ones, then...

  15. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    According to an interview with Sylvia Anderson that I found on the internet the Landaus were foisted on them by Lew Grade because they were "hot" due to being in Mission Impossible. She thought Martin Landau wasn't a leading man and Barbara Bain couldn't act. She was also wary about casting a...
  16. What If: Greenland Norse has survived the Little Ice Age

    This is one of my ideas -When the Norse settled in Greenland, they brought Celtics as well as Sami shipbuilders and reindeer herders; a few Norse settlers and Samis ran away from the settlements because of taxation or crimes and adapted a semi-nomadic lifestyle. In contrast to OTL, Greenlanders...

    Sam Westwood's Hollywood

    Planning on a music TL at some point. The Nederpop documentary was a backdoor pilot of sorts. There's also been a ton of backdoor pilots for the George A. Romero TL I want to do first.
  18. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    From looking at the British Naval Estimates (online at a Parliamentary Papers website) I can say that the 'County' class cruisers cost between £2m and £2.25m. HMS York was a bit cheaper at £1.67m with the 'Leanders' around £1.4m and the Galateas £1.23m. I haven't completed my spreadsheet yet for...

    Photos from World War Z

    A pair of $1 bills seen in a drain in a street in New York City during the Great Panic. Crudely taken by a smartphone, this has been designated as one of the most impactful photographs taken during World War Z as it shows that money had became worthless by the time zombies were known to the...
  20. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    The Six Million Dollar Man or The Dukes of Hazzard might not have been good, but I thought both shows were very entertaining and that's what made them successful.
