    No intermediate cartridge as we know it?

    More things like the Halbek Device to help manage recoil?
  2. Napoleon, instead of invading Egypt to get to India, disembarks his troops onto Egypt and pays for some ships to get to India

    AFAIK, the last time the Ottomans ventured from the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean was in 1553 and by that time their fleet amounted to few galleys that had been destroyed by the Portuguese. So the safe bet is that there was no a “Red fleet squadron” in any meaningful form. Not to mention that...

    Discussion: What if Edmund, Earl of Rutland survives Wakefield?

    Yes, but if Tudor proves loyal enough and if Maggie lives to otl age, they may just let him keep the inheritance. Besides the Scots will provide a substantial dowry anyways and since the war will end in the 1460s, they'll have plenty of time to recover the money lost.

    Threadmarks: Riverfront Square 20th Anniversary

    What's new at Riverfront Square in 1986? For starters, 1986 marks the indoor park's 20th anniversary. To correct a mistake I made in the post for its grand opening, the Haunted Mansion is actually in the New Orleans Square section of the upper level. On the left is the Pirates of the...

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

    Getting us back on the rails... I might be. I remember not being impressed and very doubtful of the source. And considering the very real threat to New York from submarines, I think any whiff of an attack on the city would have been countered - swiftly.

    Kermit? Buck expectations of what a Marine is.
  8. Fact Check Article: Prototype Nazi Nuclear Bombers Were Within a Few Months of Hitting New York

    The general consensus seems to be that the Germans couldn't have developed a working nuclear weapon by 1945 as the article suggests. And unless we buy into some spurious reports about nuclear tests by the Nazis on Thuringa Island and elsewhere, (Check the Internet for further info on these...

    Well, you couldn't question her legitimacy without offending Burgundians but you could deny ALL women right to succeed.

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

    It's only a short walk from my flat to the post office so it's more my annoyance they won't do their job than anything else. They probably don't like the foreigner building a giant Nazi battleship by partworks.

    Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    No. GIVE ME ALL THE HORSE POWERS!!!! Seriously, anything over 25hp per ton would be outstanding at this point in the war. If you can get above that, and strengthen the transmission, then you have the option to up armour when the enemy anti tank guns improve. The weak points are the tracks and...

    Was the Arab Expansion Inevitable, and Can It Happen Without A United Faith?

    I think they were going to expand regardless, but the *degree* to which they expanded was not pre-ordained. it was not a guarantee that they'd conquer an empire stretching from Spain to India
  13. Without the 1963 coup in south Vietnam, how would it affect south vietnam?

    That was my point. You are better off with a single somewhat competent autocratic kleptocrat than a revolving door of incompetent kleptocrats who can't stand each other. Or perhaps "better the crook you know then the crooks you don't know". I'm not saying that's 'good', but it's 'better'...

    1901 and Going Up (A Collaborative TL)

    A few notable baseball players Tony Velazquez. The Cuban starred for Seattle last year with huge numbers. His hitting was dominate but his defense was quite poor. He will be a hitting monster until his 1913 retirement. Aaron Hendricks. Hendricks is a rising star for Hartford and the main reason...

    Discussion: What if Edmund, Earl of Rutland survives Wakefield?

    If their loyal to the Yorkists (it seems like it's been agreed George will marry Maggie Beaufort), unlikely. They'll try and keep Tudor from his inheritance from Margaret but he'll definitely keep Richmond.
  16. No intermediate cartridge as we know it?

    If the US army wants a firearm that is significantly lighter than an M1 Garand and has a 300 Yard effective range than I suspect something else is going to be needed or the requirements will need to change.

    Is that or a full season of tom savage. Either way texans are going 0-16 In 17 without Watson...and the #1 pick

    Donald's definitely a Navy Duck through and through. Goofy in the Army makes too much sense, honestly. Fozzie for the Coast Guard (gotta' be a bear!). So, who goes USMC?
