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

    And once it can happen, we can have Discworld's Witches and the Hogfather (in their own special ways) join in on the fun. I can especially imagine a crossover "Nightmare before Hogswatch" stage show, with Mr. Oogie-Boogie having been the one to have hired Mr. Teatime to wack Hogfather.
  2. More Helicopter/light carriers in post ww2 period

    The Chinese looked seriously at acquiring Harriers in the 1970s. The deal fell through though. They were obviously thinking of V/STOL carriers, even then.

    Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    In a democratic election, but not against the Egyptian Army
  4. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    There was concept art of Ursula where she's gaunter than the finished character. I noticed how much that version of the character resembled Yzma and that lead to American Magic's version of The Little Mermaid featuring Eartha Kitt as Ursula. I'm pretty sure you're not being serious, but there's...
  5. And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    Hello, based department???? Great update. I figured Manuel would want to co-opt the idea of crusading to boost himself. The Empire is in a very good situation. Several agreements from Italian Republics, soldiers as tribute from eastern European states (bringing Hungary under the Imperial aegis...
  6. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    I'm not sure they would be. The 300 series orbiter program has a 100% cost growth before the first vehicle is delivered, and by the time the fleet is delivered the procurement is going to be in the 10+ Billion USD range, which is in the same ballpark as SLS. The difference here is that...

    Who could have been the most chaotic, insane and "lost" American president ever if elected?

    1824- William Crawford. Having served as James Monroe's secretary of the treasury, Crawford was considered a primary candidate for the presidency until he suffered a debilitating stroke. However, Crawford remained in the race and won third place, beating out Henry Clay. Crawford was supposed to...
  8. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    I am thinking Jan-Feb 1942 as I think both the Navy and Army would want the reinforcements already going to the Far East to arrive first. So I would think there would be at least a few days stall before ratcheting up the pressure, maybe even a couple weeks or so.
  9. The German Century

    I agree, but there would be less of a racial element about it and more along the lines of "Jews are the moneybrokers of the world that ensure the oppression of the proletariat"
  10. Alternate 'Battle of Midway': RN instead of USN, what's the result?

  11. Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    Don't know if he would have been a good leader, his evil personal behavior aside. But I don't know offhand any secret policeman that took the top job in totalitarian regimes, they are the bogeyman to the masses and usually inspire fear in their peers. Andropov right before Gorbachev is the only...

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

    YES. Love this. Okay, now that we got the ball rolling, perhaps this is how it would work: 7 Nights of Terror (Tentative Title) [Oct 25 - Oct 31]: Exclusive Mort-Centered Stage Show (as said by TheMolluskLingers) Disney Villains Themed Parade Ghostbusters Overlay for the Haunted Mansion...
  13. AHQ/AHC: Ideal modern tank design?

    I suspected as much. I hadn't heard there were systems that actually work. ;) Thx.
  14. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    That or Cartoon Network ITTL becomes a joint venture with Turner, WB and Henson (Or just Turner and WB, if Henson owning both Nickelodeon and a stake in CN ITTL is too much) as owners.
  15. Alternate Armoured Vehicles of Nations

    Needs to be dieso powered for it to be effective as armour...
  16. Dunkirk Disaster and colonies exchanged for withdrawal from France and Netherlands

    Given Hitler's superweapon fetishes in OTL, I can absolutely see him wanting the French battleships. I cannot see the French let alone the Dutch giving them to him. All that would do is at best (for the Germans) drive Darlan to scuttle his fleet earlier than in OTL. Alternatively he could set...
  17. Have the BL/Austin Maxi as or more successful as the Ford Cortina

    I'd be much happier with something that looked more like a stretched 9X: keep the family resemblance. Also, I just find the Citroënesque styling too peculiar. Even though I do like the K-back. If you can live with a shorter hood and less-pointed grille/headlight arrangement, we might be...

    Best President USA never had (19th century edition)

    Hamlin. For the same reason as the other thread.
  19. Explain the AH Quote

    A conversation from a newsarticle on how the supposed arrival of the year 2000 was gonna go and bring calamity onto the world, referring to how the Y2K bug caused some serious problems since while some companies and workers, such as those in HP, were working to resolve the issue, others didn't...

    Hamilton, the guy who was pro-industrialization.
