  1. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    In the two performances of hers that I have a clear memory of, as Wendy Torrance and Olive Oyl, I think she was quite good. I was surprised to read that they were originally thinking of Gilda Radner for Popeye. Except that they're both kinda goofy, I don't see a lot of intersection between Gilda...
  2. There and Back Again: The English Journeys of Catherine of Aragon.

    She certainly will, and Eleanor will be among the most memorable Queen's of England.. As for how she reacts to his tendencies, we shall see, but she won't be happy. Thank you so very much!
  3. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    I think so, I know that George I or George II issued letters patent when stating who was to be called Royal Highness in the family etc, tho maybe that was a thing he brought over from the Empire

    My only question would the king stand by anyone but moose or ciano so early on
  5. WI Saddam Hussein uses chemical weapons against coalition forces during the Gulf War?

    The Soviet Union is not getting involved in 1991 to protect a former ally from its own stupidity, especially not if pissed off TWO TO FOUR nuclear states enough to make them release their own special weapons.
  6. The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    Yeah..basically you literally need the defenders to desert the city ala 1204, or for the defenders to be bribed into opening the gates, or for there not to be enough troops to man the walls. That's it. There is no other way Constantinople falls before gunpowder is used to enable the usage of...

    Threadmarks: 1st June 1940

    1st June 1940 Norway A convoy carrying more men, supplies and a battalion of French tanks arrived at the port of Narvik at dawn. With Luftwaffe action still a serious problem, the unloading commenced immediately. The armour will be part of an offensive to secure and hold a good blocking...

  9. An Alternate History of the Republic of Nauru
    Threadmarks: Chapter 3: A Fateful Undercurrent | A Legal Fight

    The government of Nauru swiftly passed the Public Service Act of 1970, which forbade employees of the Government of Nauru from going on strike. Theoretically, lockouts were also prohibited under the new act, but observers noted that it could easily be amended to allow them. Also, private...

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

    Are letters patent really needed for a change in style only?
  11. In Britannia Salutem
    Threadmarks: 477 AD

    An unexpected meeting Medraut made his way back to his lodgings thinking hard about what Pascent had said to him. If that old fool, na, Pascent wasn’t a fool, a relic who had outlived his time but not a fool, suspected his involvement in what was happening then it was likely that others would...
  12. The Footprint of Mussolini - TL

    Well, ironically enough, many theoretically anarchist societies resemble states a lot. Like, an anarcho-syndicalist society looks a lot like a union-ruled state if you ask me.
  13. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Lebanon’s probably not as fertile ground for them as OTL, either. With Egypt still a threat, Israeli intervention in Lebanon seems unlikely. That’s going to change the dynamic on the ground. Likely less aggressive Christian extremists, so less provocative to the Muslim population and more...

    Threadmarks: Computers IV: An Increasingly Crowded Field

    An Increasingly Crowded Field Excerpt from Computer Wars! by Calvin Threadmaker After losing significant market share due to the disastrous reception of the PC Jr., IBM found itself suddenly a minor player within its own PC architecture. After a massive purge of leadership following this...
  15. Looking for an old crosstime science fiction story.

    Could be the Merchant Princess series by Charlie Stross. The final installment of the first series has a cross-time nuclear strike (essentially carpet nuking the eastern seaboard with a 'big one' to make sure nobody survives). I'm not sure about the hellenic part - IIRC, the ATL had a late roman...

    WI: Richard II had a breakdown in 1392 instead of Charles VI?

    His ancestors were landowners and royal officers but lost it after the Glyndrw rebellion
  19. 1916 Presidential election if WWI didn’t happen

    As I said, "he kept us out of war" and the fear that a TR-influenced Republican Party would bring the US into the war did help Wilson--but the fact remains that the group with the greatest interest of all in seeing the US keep out of the War (the German-Americans) did on the whole turn against...
