    Most likely winner in a no-watergate 1976 Presidential election?

    W/o Watergate, you could see Mo Udall win the Wisconsin primary and carry the nomination. His likely opponent is Reagan. Despite Reagan's charisma, he'd probably lose due to the bad economy and the perception he was a right-wing extremist. Ironically, Reagan losing the nomination to Ford IOTL...

    A House Divided Against Itself: An 1860 Election Timeline

    I sense a Constitutional Union victory coming on.
  3. Socialist revolution in a European empire; what happens to the colonies?

    For Britain, I believe Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa would just go their own way, considering they are not properly colonies, bot Dominions with responsible government. Canada might be the new seat of the monarchy. Now, the ACTUAL colonies, it's going to depend on who is the...
  4. Napoleon invades Greece instead of Egypt?

    Don’t forget being plucked and all hairs removed by fire (while still alive?)

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

    Yes, and there should come positive things from what they do *Cough* here some nationalists you might agree with Evo morales Nicolás Maduro Norman Thomas Josif Broz Tito João Goulart João Domingo Perón, or at least the Motoneros Omar Torrijos Sandino Leonel Brizola (became the leader of the...
  6. Most likely winner in a no-watergate 1976 Presidential election?

    Wages and price controls are clumsy, and will likely lead to some shortages. That’s the nature of the beast. Worse in my universe is the start of a long, slow decline in mid-wage jobs.

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

    That engine pack came out the back on rails. First of its kind anywhere. Might be the only good thing about it.

    What party would Knox & Wayne end up in?

    Thankee kindly, any sources you know of for Wayne's politics?
  9. Napoleon invades Greece instead of Egypt?

    These Italian warriors are truly terrifying! And attacking the chicken with just the tanks without air support, artillery and infantry was almost suicidal.

    AHQ/AHC: Ideal modern tank design?

    The US, Israelis and Russians have active defense systems, Quick Kill, Trophy and Arena
  11. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    The Russians wouldn't even let the crews of the merchant ships supplying them with supplies to leave their ships - even if they were stuck somewhere like Murmansk for months.
  12. Socialist revolution in a European empire; what happens to the colonies?

    Anyone have any ideas as to what might happen to the colonies should a European colonial naval empire go socialist (Britain, France, Portugal, Spain, Germany... you pick. Russia doesn't count - given it's empire is land based) Of course, it'll probably vary between what nation adopts what...
  13. AHQ: was Greece destined to be the cradle of European civilization?

    If you ask in Europe about Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Alexander, Leonidas - most people will know who they were. This will not be the case in the Middle East and China (just like on Europe not everybody knows who Cao Cao and Liu Bei werr)
  14. A European "China"?

    There is a reason that Rome is the most obvious choice here to establish a long lasting continuous state that lasts to the present day, with most of its core territories intact. If it managed to conquer and hold Germania long term, I think that makes enough of a demographic base to allow for it...
  15. Your Personal TNO Headcanon?

    Really only the Tabby successor states, Black League, and Cult of Cain are incompatible with the others, everyone else has a real shot to mesh with others.
  16. Murat joins the 6th coalition in 1813

    the papal state return at the time of Julius II, i like this.
  17. Stalin dies on...

    Nobody can replace Stalin as Pater populorum (his official Soviet title). But maybe it's for the better.
  18. AHC: Wank the McDonnell F-4 Phantom II

    J79. The Spey's benefits were primarily in takeoff performance, which is unnecessary for a land-based customer like Canada. IMO, the most likely decision point for Canada to acquire Phantoms is in the late 1960s. That's when Canada traded in their first batch of Voodoos for a new batch of 66...
  19. Alternate 'Battle of Midway': RN instead of USN, what's the result?

    One possible way to approach the OP & reduce the variables & questions of doctrine would be to take the situation of 5/6 April and apply the US luck to Sommervilles intended night strike. Say 15 - 20 % torpedo hits (6 -7) vs 5 - 10%. All hits on carriers. How does that damage compare to...

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

    https://archive.org/details/Janes_Technology_of_Tanks_01/page/n13/mode/2up Might want to read this book. Current to the year of 1991. One can quibble about floor or hull sides but human beings need elbow room, so wider is better than narrower and a tank will not miss 15 cm of floor height as...
