    "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    To answer your PS, no ASB scenarios. I happened to left it out I believe on purpose. There's your clarification anyways. Hopefully, you and everyone else will understand by then. Edit: I added the "No ASB Scenario(s)" rule now.
  2. AHC: State-owned enterprises more widely accepted in USA

    Well, I was thinking of a bank with local branches throughout the country, hosting savings-accounts etc. for individual consumers. Based on that article, the BoC wasn't quite doing that. In fact, going by Canadian Dimensions, it would seem the ATBs in Alberta are the only publically-owned...
  3. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    In a way, while the ending is pretty depressing, it contains something of a glimmer of a quality almost alien to the Madnessverse: Hope. Humanity did not entirely perish in the bonfire that it built for itself. There would be yet future generations and they would not forget instantly the...

    Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    Just use whatever you can find on Google Images, get an overall feel of the basic shapes and dimensions, then take the T-14 Armata design aesthetic and apply it to the Object 279's framework. It doesn't have to be an exact 1:1 copy of the original Object 279, it just has to trace its design...

    The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    Those aren’t mutually exclusive. This one will be significantly longer. Think something closer to 717.
  6. Top Locomotives Never Built

    FEC electrifying? Sounds very neat to me!

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    And grivas ittl is still in the military or did side with metaxas in the revolt?
  8. HMS EAGLE in the Falklands (Story Only)
    Threadmarks: The Pentagon Wars Part 2

    Take any serviceman of any rank in any armed force in any nation across the world and it is a certainty that they will have a few things to say about the standard of the food they receive. None of them good. Even in the Pentagon of all places while the food was notably better than what the...
  9. 1066: Year of the Conquest, and Beyond - Scandinavian England

    If I'm comparing England to France, but I'm more comparing England to Normandy. Yes Normandy's smaller and with (I think?) a smaller population, but it's a more even comparison than with France. Eh, not really, he's shrewder than that. He built his life and fortune in the Mediterranean, and at...
  10. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    What I could do is have Disney sell their stake in this cable system to US West a year after its launch to avoid any FCC issues.

    An Alternate History of the Republic of Nauru

    How's the situation of Nauruan language in this scenario?
  12. Caught between the Bear and the Rooster (Stalin invades Germany 1940)

    It is risky and it would be noticed and open up a hole, but it would need to be done. It is either start pulling armies or stand around watching while the Red Army marches into Berlin. But you are right I did rush it a bit and I will give it another couple of days.

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    so basically in pounds greece from 1932 to 1939 is spending about double on the military? And also the the drop in % of gdp is due to less money spent overall or is that the greek economy is growing?
  14. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    So, I have an idea here. What if Disney Communications partnered with US West Corporation of Denver, CO, to launch a cable system. US West has contracts for phone service in Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Arizona, New Mexico, & Nebraska at this...

    WI: Motorola still made TV's

    Hmm. Moto opens a new plant in South Korea in the late '60s, seeing that the handwriting is on the wall that their CRT Plant in Quincy would not be cost competative in the future, rather than selling to National Panasonic. So Quasar makes 'domestic' TVs, with final assembly(putting the nameplate...
  17. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I second that! I also want a dedicated post on RATZ/Hackeys and how Disney responds to them.

    The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    And even then, Constantinople was taken during the time that it was arguably at its weakest point. And it still took seven weeks to take the city.

    "Most Interesting Scenario To You" Redux Thread

    Here's some of the scenarios that I'm infatuated with: The existence of Sinitic-speaking nomadic pastoralists living in OTL Mongolian Plateau, particularly in the central and southern parts of the said region. Chukchi-speaking clans migrated west right after their cultural transformation...
  20. WI: Motorola still made TV's

    Let's see. So Motorola introduces an HDTV in 1999. In 2007, when broadband quickly becomes popular, Motorola introduces the first "Smart TV." This TV has an operating system co-developed by Motorola and Microsoft at Motorola headquarters in Schamburg, IL and Microsoft headquarters in Redmond...
