  1. AHC: Make Canada more heavily populated

    You could have the USA forced to cede some of the Great Lakes region and part of Maine in the War of 1812. You could also have Canada get the Oregon Territory and possibly Alaska; perhaps they could get the latter during the Crimean War. If there's a war against Denmark they might get...
  2. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    True but the situation in Ukraine and Russia would more resemble something like the early Russian tibes rbefore Kievan Rus unified them rather than an empire based on the Steppe, which likely would still host an important nomadic component.

  4. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    Still with horse collar and heavy plough you can have a population explosion in modern day Poland and Germany. Possibly Belarus as well
  5. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    Retard bombs have fins or balloons or parachutes to well, retard their descent. Those sorts of things hang up on the various pits of ship as they penetrate it, result in them not penetrating as far as a "clean" bomb does. There were two ships involved in the Falklands with comparatively...

    Very nice, was my top choice.
  7. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    They can be but they fly as fast or faster than the aircraft with the result that the firing aircraft is over the target when they explode, not a healthy position to be. Firing from over 100' ensures the plane is far enough away that the rocket's explosion won't affect it as much.
  8. DBWI Alexander III of Macedon victorious at Gaugamela

    (hope my ideas are good enough :coldsweat: :coldsweat: ) There are just some defeats that are better than their victory counterparts, and the defeat at Gaugamela was one of these. The defeat itself wasn't as catastrophic, since Alexander and Parmenion managed to extricate themselves...
  9. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    Simply because it did not happen OTL over millennia of nomadic control even when the technology was there(according to your model), you had to have settled populations from Russia and Ukraine replace the nomads to make agriculture the primary mode of production and that's not circumstantial...

    AHC: Make Canada more heavily populated

    Greenland is a mix of Inuit and Danish people and they are more or less perfectly happy with the status quo and Denmark is too democratic to sell them. Hawaii seems a bit too far off personally and I see it more likely to be a British Island like Falklands, but I could see Alaska, perhaps...

    1995-96 UEFA Cup Second Round - 17th and 31st October 1995 First Leg Raith Rovers 1 - 1 Bayern Munich Second Leg Bayern Munich 2 - 2 Raith Rovers Despite everything expecting a humiliation at the hands of the German giants, Raith Rovers stun the favourites by holding Bayern Munich to a...
  12. No Operation Cidatel - aka Battle of Kursk

    Problem is that the Germans can't split their forces. On land at the moment the Soviet forces are THE preeminent threat and the Soviets are advancing steadily, yes they suffer losses and failures but this still hasn't stopped them. So the Germans can either divert resources to what they probably...

    Threadmarks: Roye

    Edward James Roye: 1867-1871 - The Martyr The True Whig's Triumph at the 1869 Presidential Election and the ascension of Roye to the presidency was seen as a game changer on the level of the Jeffersonian Revolution of 1800, but, in truth, it was only a partial victory. Roye's party, being...
  14. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    Based on the fuel calculations I was doing earlier, he may just be able to make Lisbon or Setubal if he remains at 17 knots or less. Though even then he is likely to be running on fumes. I also haven't calculated Breslau's range. That could be a limiting factor as well. Additionally it seems...
  15. AHC: reverse the fates of Eastern and Western Europe

    Why not? The soil in Ukraine and southern Russia is the most fertile in the world. Today if used properly, it could feed all of Europe with Turkey and easily so. I cannot see why a Scythian civilizatrion could not emerge if at least a certain % of people are willing to settle down.
  16. What was the division that participated in almost all the important battles of the Western Front of the First World War?

    I remember reading a book where a division of the German army that participated in many of the most important battles on the Western Front, I remember that it listed: Flanders, the Battle of Verdun, the Battle of the Somme, the Battle of Loretto and the Battle of Champagne. But no matter how...

    I don’t think that’s how it works. I think when legitimised the Pope declared them equal to their fully legitimate siblings. With Richard II’s succession act not specifying whether or not they can inherit the throne we can only assume they were in line ahead of the York’s.

  20. No Operation Cidatel - aka Battle of Kursk

    The allies know by advance when the offensive would start, and the germans "know" that their plans where found out, but they still pushed for combat. What if they didn't? How many forces could be spared from the gruesome combat (from both Germans and Soviets), and how much bloodier could have...
