  1. AHC/WI: WWII Axis Commando Raids in the Western Hemisphere?

    The KSM were formed several years into WWII and were largely trained by MAS, whose failures and lessons learned the hard way established the doctrine that made them successful. As you say, by late 1942-1943, MAS pretty much had perfected their art. That's fair, but it did to an equal extent...

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

    It's probably going to be Reagan running against an establishment Democrat. I think the establishment Dem's a narrow favorite, as they'll be able to run on improving the economy and Reagan being a bit fringe.
  3. WI: Japan don't attack Philippines/Hawaii in 1941: how does US react

    The premise of this is the myth that Nagano actually opposed attacking the US. I'd like to know why this myth is continued to be perpetuated on this site given this is absurd and baseless claim with zero evidence indicating such happening at all. Last year I wrote posts below in response to...
  4. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Actually, the next update will be the soft opening of the Fox Network.
  5. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Needs to be somewhere you can hurt Germany without the OTL Italian quagmire. That rather rules out Greece due to all the mountains to get through. Although holding south Greece and killing 50,000 German's trying to break through a prepared perimeter has its uses, its just there isn't really...
  6. Vietnam, a unwinnable war?

    I disagree but if that is the case forget it The USA cannot win the OTL scenario without a much better long term plan and deployment of resources and the will to see it through as well as a far less corrupt South Vietnam. None of which I believe that they can deliver upon
  7. WI: Arab Viking Age in Indian Ocean

    Because they've no navy to speak for and ERE and Persia where far more valuable some underdeveloped regions where at the times and they reached India and China and Expanded Islam via Land anyway?
  8. Ivan's revenge : Soviets try to settle score with EGYpt

    Won’t help now that they are buddies with israel
  9. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Is this a hint towards the next big Fox movie, perhaps?
  10. Discussion: What if Edmund, Earl of Rutland survives Wakefield?

    Edward and Richard both had bastards OTL, and then with George not having any children with Margaret I knew he'd be looking for a mistress. After that I just sort of made it the theme.

  12. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    Texas’ stance had been more of a, “don’t expect us to help out; this is between the rail companies and the owners of every patch of land it could touch.” A lot of people (I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a majority) in the state want better rail systems and a HSR but no one wants it on their...
  13. Slave rebellion during the Mexican American war possible?

    Wasn't the Haitian revolt also helped out by the utter chaos that was France at the time that it happened. Also that France was at war with Britain for a large part of the early revolt and so couldn't actually deploy troops to quash it, both because the British would try to stop such a covoy of...
  14. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Turkey maybe (assuming you can get them to declare)? Wherever it is, it needs to be somewhere with a secure port.

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

    MUCH less effect than the literal president having to resign.

    A more realistic (IMO) AHC: US Metro/Regional Transit as good as in Europe.

    Most Class I Steam was gone by 1954, a bit over 90% over to Diesel, to that vanishing in 1961 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieselisation#United_States_2
  17. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    So its vaguely possible it could happen. That said better to find another location and attack there. Germany has far lower manpower and production capabilities than the allies and so forcing them into a two front war makes it easier to bleed them dry that much quicker.

  19. WI: France gives all Algerians full citizenship during the Algerian War

    IIRC the Arab elites in Algeria did maintain hope for a very long time that they could get France to accept them, but that unfortunately didn't work. If they did it early enough though, it might. Ironically, if they could find a way to do it there's a good chance that it wouldn't change the...
