  2. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    There is an interesting DeviantArt map showing American SOE's founded by an ATL Henry Ford administration. https://www.deviantart.com/planita13/art/Henry-Ford-s-America-Operations-Map-857092535
  3. The Forge of Weyland

    It is also possible that the Allies are prepared to buy Italian Kit and throw it over the side once they leave harbour to prevent it reaching the Germans. They were prepared to pay over the current price for Romanian Oil, Spanish Tungsten, etc to stop the Germans from getting control of such...
  4. The Forge of Weyland

    Well, one thing she WON'T be doing is evacuating Hurricanes from Norway!
  5. The Forge of Weyland

    Don't forget the belt feed. Of course some mutual assistance from the Germans would be required - perhaps they could in return send a bus-load of nurses from Rinteln to support the development of the servizio di sanità militare?

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

    That could certainly work. After all, at least some of the Habsburg cousins will be needing jobs. But all of Austria (especially because it will be more complete and therefore bigger) will be quite a bloc within the empire. That's an issue that I'm seeing. Although of course, things also depend...

    Or be transporting more aircraft to Norway - either way she is likely to be be better protected than OTL. Maybe by the Valiant group?
  9. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    Not actually correct , it was not illegal in England and Wales , it was impossible. That it is to say that you could not enslave/be enslaved or be in a state of slavery so slavery could not exist. In terms of an Act to make it illegal that was symbolically passed only in 2015 ( since the Act...
  10. at U.S. Constitutional Convention in 1787, northern states engage in brinksmanship and get deal on phase out of slavery by southern states

    I dont think it existed in the rest of Europe too, except for the Ottomans. Not that the lot of serfs was that much better. IIRC about some time before that, the so-called enlightened rulers of Russia allowed them to be officially sold and bought separately from the land they lived on

    AHQ: Royal Navy carrier strike on Wilhelmshaven, 1939

    In our much beloved TL, The Whale Has Wings, a powerful ATL Royal Navy carrier force with ATL aircraft conducts a night strike on Wilhelmshaven in 1939, to the detriment of the Kriegsmarine. My question is, could a similar thing be done IRL with OTL's resources? The POD is that, after the...

    With an allied offensive going on in Norway Glorious is unlikely to be in the same place as she was on the 8th of June and is much more likely to have aircraft up.

    Glorified ferry :biggrin: Probably not too many more available as coastal bombardment support is a thing ITTL in the Channel. The french may have some assets around narvik as well ITTL.

    yeah greece and yugoslavia are options for italian adventures now that the entente and germans are busy with each other if astro wants further pursue alternative history.
  15. The Forge of Weyland

    That assumes the Allies would prefer to do that rather than buy American kit. Also that Mussolini woudn't rather have the aid go to Germany. Since he has plans for a Glorious Italian Empire, its actually in his own interest to tie up Britain and France

    AHTL: British Carrier Strike

    Level bombing as the fuel tanks are not a smoldering wreck yet
  17. The Forge of Weyland

    And HMS Glorious :D There may be a few more RN ships around - they have actions off Norway to cover, and the lack of a Dunkirk evacuation will leave more ships available
  18. The Forge of Weyland

    When I first saw that photo just after the Italian uber Vesper I thought you where showing the obvious development of the idea, a truck with a railway gun on the back! A damaged plane is much more in keeping with the discussion but is a lot less cool. Talking of Italian kit, might not another...
  19. The Forge of Weyland

    If the same ships are in play then there should be two groups out and about in the North Sea. R&R's group is heading towards Iceland gap after a reported sighting of German ships ( RENOWN and REPULSE, heavy cruiser SUSSEX, light cruiser NEWCASTLE, destroyers MAORI, FORESTER, FOXHOUND, ZULU...
