  2. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    The difference is that a modern sub firing a WW2 torp against a surface ship was still viable strategy in 1982. Aircraft dropping torpedo's to attack surface ship hadn't been practiced since Korea to my knowledge. It was considered more or less a dead tech. Sort of like say building dreadnoughts...
  3. AHC: Replace the main cash crop of the CSA / Southern USA

    Rice, indigo, or tobacco are probably your best bets.
  4. AHC: Longest possible airship age

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_air_engine- there was a 19th century engine called a 'caloric engine', built by people who thought air would work like water in a steam engine. It does not. They were making compressed air engines with hot air. Hot air balloons have hot air. Sew some tubes with...
  5. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    If it comes down to a fight, the I class are actually in a bit of trouble. They were never designed to fight capital ships. Their job was to run down and destroy cruisers. And they were good at that. But there were no equivalents to them when they were designed. Their armour is not designed for...

    Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    The Plantagenets and Hohenstauffens once tried to ally against the Capetians IOTL, this time they might try again.
  8. WI Germany goes South in operation Barbossa

    A Southern Strategy might have worked with a whole different approach to the war. 1. reach out to minority and disaffected groups within the USSR. The Southern strategy fits this pretty well - you have Ukrainians, Tatars, Cossacks, Muslims, etc. along the way. If you offer these people...

    What's the point of high militarization when you have almost no threats?
  12. Galloway and the Plan of Union: A Saga of a British America

    I’m probably going to be a little slower with this next update as real life has kind of obstructed much of my progress this week but hopefully I will be back on track soon. I anticipate the next chapter to be complete by next week.
  13. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Huh looks like things re heating up in the Desert though I have to say I wonder how many German units could be in position given they are casting eyes towards Russia and also due to the fact they are going to have to support the Italians in the Balkans and Greece.
  14. Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    Maybe douce of burgundy, or her aunt mahaut?
  15. Henry the Young King lives, but what happens to Aquitaine?

    I would guess that Henry remarries from somewhere in France to shore up his position against Philip II, who is sure to be pissed at the annulment of Henry and Margaret. Maybe one of the daughters of Hugh III, duke of Burgundy, who was often fighting with Louis VII and Philip II. Would this...
  16. WW2 Technology WI: Airborne Divisions Create "Drop Pods"?

    Well, that would be one way to ensure discipline. "Okay Johnson, that'll do. Thanks for volunteering to be part of the light armored deployment unit. Make sure you clean up your personal effects before we take off, don't want the wrong sort of things getting back to your folks." Also make...

    Everything Has Gone Green: The Consequences of Googling Murray Bookchin

    For some reason, I always want to root for him even though he's probably the most morally objectionable of the major characters. Also, I'm so glad that Professor Miglio was a real guy, because I want to use him for something now Agran is obviously a footnote IOTL, but the later success of...

    AHC - Get the USA to intervene militarily in the Iranian Revolution

    That was to rescue the hostages, not military intervention to overthrow Khomeni and put another Pahlavi back in power (presumably the OP's intent). You would need Vietnam to not have happened: otherwise, no way in Hell is the U.S. attempting to invade Iran in 1979.
