  1. AHC: Romance languages disappear

    Can't the same thing happen with Frankish/Gothic?

    Have Space 1999 be more successful

    Have 'Space 1999' be more successful and have at least five series made. The series must also be a big hit in the US and have some spin off series. Much obliged!

  4. Everything Has Gone Green: The Consequences of Googling Murray Bookchin

    Dude, really interesting. It's incredible to think how the destiny of Russia and the Union of Sovereign Soviet Republics project of Gorbachev could have been so radically different even if everything went like IOTL if the president of the RSFSR was someone other than Yeltsin. Khasbulatov is a...

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    No it wasn't. Lucas was the executive producer and that was it, his involvement seems to have been minimal outside of just getting the film made.

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

    Ah, true natively, but I bet they get hacked and are soon running all sorts of stuff. In the 90’s someone will make a MICKEY run Doom for the lolz.
  7. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    mission creep, the older kids need instruction too, and in many places there simply will not be the funds to get separate computers for the older group.
  8. WI: Wilhelm II is a pacifist

    Lol no. As I said, without German reassurance there is a chance that Austria would not have even declared war on Serbia as it would be pressured by Germany to accept the agreement proposed by Serbia. On top of that, a less jingoistic Wilhelm II would never declare war on Western powers.
  9. AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    In 1940 no one is going to support a coup, even less after such a victory. Wait until 1943 to try.
  10. What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    Just to throw a cat amongst the pigeons. The Panzerschiffs are countered by the battle cruisers and Dunkerques. While part of the Vanguard is the reuse of old turrets, it is easy to forget it was designed the Pacific battleship. You can't put a treaty battleship in the eastern Med. There is no...
  11. "If They Want It They Can Have It": Ulster's Tragedy.

    This can end in a complete balls up if some squad gets caught.

    What if NAZI Germany didn’t build battleships?

    That was the main reason to fight Germany, as they saw a Germany dominating eastern Europe as a long term threat to their worldwide empire. I do not think they thought the Soviet Union would do any better than the Russian empire in WW1 did. German victory in the Soviet Union would mean any...

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    That and the technology is almost but not quite up to the task, leaving us with a generally (but not always) impressive duck suit with the cold dead eyes of a killer ventriloquist dummy as our lead.

    AHC Plan a successful Anti-Nazi coup

    There wasn't much risk of the coup succeeding when the Nazis maintained channels of communication AND knew Hitler was alive. Even if they'd managed to cut the communication, Hitler being alive will put out any coup attempt.

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

    There’s more than just Henry VIII you know. Elizabeth has gotten a good few shows of her own too. Not gonna derail the thread further, but simply put calling the Tudors the most boring dynasty is just wrong and does them a disservice.

  17. AHC: Romance languages disappear

    Arabic being decreed as the sole administrative language, as well as the liturgical language of Islam? Regardless of the reason(s), it still took centuries.
  18. WI Saddam Hussein uses chemical weapons against coalition forces during the Gulf War?

    Israel cannot afford to let a chemical strike go unanswered. Best case the give the coalition a very few hours (single digit) to glass several - NOT just one - place in Iraq. Worst case, or best depending on how you look at it, they ensure there's no reason for the coalition to invade...
  19. AHQ: latest moment to reverse Celtic decline

    I'm afraid that kind of stalemate would favor the Anglo-Saxons in the long run, since IIRC the east + southeast England has better farmland and is more closely connected to Europe than the west, thanks to the Thames.

    If Rome got rid of slavery would it have advanced more?

    Hence why I specified "economically," and even qualified it with "in some ways." I'm not an expert on the history of finance or economics, but it seems like there was just a lot more capital floating around in Rome even if it lacked a protomercantile class, so if the market demands it it seems...
