  1. Fact Check Article: Prototype Nazi Nuclear Bombers Were Within a Few Months of Hitting New York

    The OSS didn't just chuck him into a lecture theatre and let him guess, he was briefed on the basics (and more, given his intelligence) and told what to watch out for. He'd spent quite a while working with the OSS pursuing Italian nuclear scientists, I imagine he picked up quite a bit of...

    Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    There are at least three armies that should be taking precedence TTL... for the simple reason all three are actively in the war. First obviously the French. Second the Greeks, the territory liberated has sufficient manpower for something in the order of 8-10 division. Then the Italian...

    Napoleon invades Greece instead of Egypt?

    Credit to @Gillan1220 for this one: (Last derail I swear!) :D

    The Bear and Eagle on the Nineveh Plains -- an alt-Middle East Collaborative Timeline

    As discussed in the OP: So far, we had Iran spread its influence in Central Asia. This draws Russia and Saudi Arabia closer over mutual desire to curb Iran's power. I hope so. As I said earlier in the thread:
  6. Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    So rape isn't physical harm in your opinion? Nice to know...
  7. Would Beria have been a good leader for the Soviet Union?

    What you say is very ignorant on your part, as the above said one thing does not take away the other, there have been hundreds of successful leaders who were personally assassins, rapists or worse.

  10. 1901 and Going Up (A Collaborative TL)

    May, 11, 1905: 4-year old Walt Disney's family moves from Chicago, IL to Marceline, MO.
  11. Napoleon, instead of invading Egypt to get to India, disembarks his troops onto Egypt and pays for some ships to get to India

    Instead of trying to find enough ships to sail from the Red Sea to India, maybe it would be better* to try and get Persia as well as the Ottomans on-side, and just march there. * As in, only 99.8% chance of failure, as opposed to 99.9%.
  12. Could any of the communist goverments of Eastern Europe have survived the Soviet Collapse?

    None of those countries would have been communist without the Soviet Union and the speed with which they discarded communism as soon as the USSR started to fail is revealing.
  13. Suicide weaponized by Soviet bloc

    There is the ye olde 203mm nuclear artillery shell.
  14. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Well, the theme song for M*A*S*H is called "Suicide Is Painless", and Muppet versions of Mickey and friends have existed for years at this point. On the other hand, since the original show has ended years ago, it would seem in bad taste to parody it using children's characters. But then again...
  15. Earliest possible nuclear reactor?

    If French research in Paris could have continued apace without the war and Nazi occupation intruding, they might have arrived first to building a crude reactor, possibily even a year or more before Fermi in Chicago.
  16. Wi: Cato the Elder as a Hellenophile

    IOTL Cato the Elder is rather known for his conservative and anti Hellenic stance even though he did include Greek (and Punic) recipes in his book. What if instead he just fell in love with Greek culture so much that he spent the rest of his life praising it skywards? He marries a Greek wife...
