  1. Fumbling through the Wilderness - a TL from 1918
    Threadmarks: Reservations and Recriminations

    Although anyone could theoretically be elected Liberal leader through a vote of MPs, if another faction controlled the National Liberal Federation, they could appoint another figure who had the backing of the best part of the Party machine (as constituencies remained fairly autonomous) as...
  2. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    My grandfather was on the Russian convoys and he had nothing good to say about the reception in the Soviet Union.
  3. Fumbling through the Wilderness - a TL from 1918
    Threadmarks: The germ of this TL

    Thanks! And indeed, there's a lot of potential in McKenna's analysis that wasn't followed OTL. I took it from Asquith by Stephen Koss, page 239-40. I'll reproduce the relevant section here since I didn't get to a scanner today. "Reginald McKenna...ventured a "personal opinion" on the...
  4. Alternate 'Battle of Midway': RN instead of USN, what's the result?

    Wrong! Firstly, I repeat what I wrote in my first reply, which was that I wasn't grouping all present four Illustrious class CVs in the Indian Ocean. I was grouping three out of four present Illustrious class CVs in the Indian Ocean because Victorious spent the first half of 1942 with the Home...
  5. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    Because Americans have short memories regarding grievances and grudges (nothing proves that more than the post war occupation of Japan). They also know that many in the US public are loathe to use American lives to defend French, Dutch and British colonial holdings. Sure, some US hawks...

    Someone got the events for Regent Larionov before the HRE fully splinters. No sugarcoating it, it's straight fucked.

    O're Hills and Valleys Reign: A Cumbrian Timeline

    I apologize for the long delays and absences (and many thanks to you that nominated and voted for me in the best timeline poles). I have to admit that this chapter was quite a struggle to get out, despite many attempts to find my way through the block. It probably wasn't helped by the many...
  8. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    What about the army and airforce? Without all three services geared up, there can be no war. The 2 ocean act allows for defence and offence, yes, but what troops exactly will they transport?
  9. What are some cliches in a Central Powers victory TL?

    Which is painfully ironic considering some of the things that happened in Ober Ost.

    Threadmarks: Henry IV and the peace treaty with France

    On 1400, a treaty of peace, known as the Treaty of Le Havre was made a cease-fire between France and England marrying Isabella of France, the dowager queen of Richard and the eldest daughter of Charles VI to Henry, Prince of Wales, future Henry V. All the male issue of Charles VI of France and...
  13. Most likely winner in a no-watergate 1976 Presidential election?

    And that is a big part of the problem. It is a slow-motion crisis. Even with Reagan asking in 1980, “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” during the one and only debate between him and Carter (on Oct. 28, 1980).

  16. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    Plus an expansion of the war means ARVN and US divisions have to be diverted at a time they aren't doing very well against the insurgency on home turf, stretching manpower, morale, logistics, etc. Chicken and eggs if you will.

    AHC: Keep the Shun dynasty around

    The problem with this is that the Southern Ming were quite tough. It was likely possible for them to defeat the Shun by themselves if they were able to organise properly, although infighting was something that crippled the Southern Ming throughout their existence. A Shun conquest of Southern...

    Nations that could have join the Axis powers during WW2?

    Two options that come to me are: Spain: Unlikely due to it recovering from the Spanish Civil War, but if they joined, they would aim to get Rousillon and the French Basque, Gibraltar and some colonial concessions. Turkey: Also unlikely, but Nazi Germany wanted it as an ally for its strategic...
