  1. Defeated Austria inside German Empire: Kingdom or Archduchy?

    I just thought about another thing as well. There might also be an opportunity to reward some of the other German states. Particularly Bavaria could for instance be given Salzburg. That would also serve to weaken Austria in the new constellation while investing Bavaria, which was the most...

    A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    That would be fun!
  4. Defeated Austria inside German Empire: Kingdom or Archduchy?

    While the linguistic part of it sounds silly, it would be recognized that Österreich is just a name (like Frankreich) and not a label per say. Anecdotally, I have a German friend, whos last name is Richter (which means judge in German), and indeed, he works as a judge, so on a daily basis at...

    Defeated Austria inside German Empire: Kingdom or Archduchy?

    An Imperial Germany that includes Austria would be very colourful and have very interesting systems.
  6. 'Short .30' cartridges became mainstream in 1930s?

    Instead of waiting to 1940s, let's stipulate the development and use of small arms if the short 'full-calibre' ammo for rifles and LMGs are introduced in the armies of 'major' countries already in 1930s. The 'short .30' cartridges being the name for anything between 7.35mm (still-born Italian...

    Map Thread XX

    Heres my entry into this round of Cour's Telephone game! I had the honor to start this round so I tried doing something pretty broad. Despite this, funnily enough we ended up having a pretty convergent game. Check out the other entries and the player queue...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Baby Bop and BJ would get on the snarking too at points. ...For some weird reason, I'm imagining a scene where the dino trio and the kids accompanying them stumble into a movie theater and briefly encountering Mike and the Bots. Idea: Robin Williams and Edward Norton as the bad guys: a crooked...

  10. AHC: East Asian Social Democracy

    Independent Tibet? Could Tibetan Buddhism blend well with social democracy similar to certain Christian Democratic Parties across the west?
  11. Have Space 1999 be more successful

    Yep. They also produced a show called UFO, which only ran for one series, a few years earlier - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFO_(TV_series) Some of the ideas for the planned second series of UFO went into Space 1999. Here's an interesting bit I just ran into. (Background - Gerry Anderson...
  12. AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    By the way any rational for the escort? In OTL there was something like 4 battleships escorting the carriers for Taranto. I always felt it was problematic as the slow battleships meant lingering more time in range or air attack but there should be a reason to change this type of thing...
  13. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Barney the MST3K Snarkosaurus. Now THAT (provided it doesn't get annoying within half an hour) is something worth two hundred bucks and a block-long lineup.

    Telephone Map Game: 8th Edition

    Another great round by everybody! Thank you once again @CourageousLife for hosting these games! Very true! I had to double check you weren't right behind me in the queue :P
  16. AHQ: Royal Navy carrier strike on Wilhelmshaven, 1939

    The Norway campaign is going to be a lot more difficult to pull through if this takes place.
  17. The Forge of Weyland

    Actually the Allied blockade was set up to stop neutral's from buying more oil etc than they needed ( the assumption being they would resell it to Germany for a big profit ). It was one of the sore points before Italy's entry to the war. They got away with a bit but were watched like a hawk ti...
  18. The Forge of Weyland

    Warspite + escorts had done some work around Narvik not that long before - were they not about?

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Barney, of course, would be fully aware of the fourth wall, making aside comments about the nature of musicals and how contrived the plot is at points as well as encouraging mild audience participation.
