  1. WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    OK. I have to write down a couple of more things (early November surprises) before my election night coverage to pull this off
  2. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    This is good example of the law of unintended consequences. Because why its certainly physically possible for the US to do that, you basically talking about boarding international ships (possible in international waters) and threating Cambodia a county you are ostensibly trying to support in ist...

  4. AHC: Earliest possible North Korea nukes

    What would be the consequences of this additional increment to North Korean power in the 70s, 80s and 90s?
  5. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Nerve gasses are very expensive and difficult to produce, store, and transport compared to mustard gas or HE. OTL, the Nazis started trying to produce Tabun in 1939 (which they already knew the formula of), but couldn't get it into production until 1942 because of its toxicity. Adding nerve...
  6. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    No balanced fleet = no AGNA, and therefore a more aggressive British response to German rearmament and a more aggressive response to the brinkmanship of the late 30s Due to signing the AGNA the British viewed Hitler as someone with whom they could make deals with (i.e. ordinary politics) and...
  7. What were the biggest tech and weapon mistakes and missed opportunities of Germany in ww2

    Compared to having, say, 300 advanced U-boats at the outbreak of war (and infrastructure capable of building dozens more per month) ???? Even in 1933 it's not too much of a streach to suggest that Hitler knew he would eventually have to go up against the RN. Having a few dozen cruister / pocket...
  8. The Forge of Weyland

    Just because he gives that order doesn't mean the Government or Army will go along with it when they're doing reasonably well.

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Imagine your country being so massacred by the SS that you decide "fuck it let's declare war on reality itself". Reject a reality that is naught but pain and depression. Makes more sense than in Red Flood, at least ?

    Scenario: How does a Japan divided into Eastern/Western Blocs post-WWII develop?

    There wouldn't be a "Tokyo Airlift" if East Tokyo has the port. The Soviets can't really stop the naval might of the Western Allies (especially America).

    What happens if Rock Island chooses the Christie Route to American armor for WWII?

    I cannot predict with exactitude what the evolution might be like. the Americans had four choices for fast cruiser tanks. a. Carden Lloyd lever and leaf spring, which is the way the Germans, Poles, Italians, some French (Schneider), Czechs and Russians started and which the Americans imitated...
  14. How devastating would a Japanese invasion of Korea be in the 1870s

    I just don't think the Japanese were ready to take on Korea, and a possible Chinese intervention during the 1870's. The development of the Japanese economy, and military capability between 1868-1894 was amazing, but the 1870's was very early in the process.

    A European "China"?

    Agree on this one. I think it's more remarkable that China, long the most populous place on Earth, didn't wind up looking more like Europe before the unifications of the 1800's, or maybe like the pre-Independence Indian subcontinent...
