  1. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    You do for industrial efficiency. Kill the camp staff, railroad stations, and crematoria, and you slow down the system.

    Fear Nothing But God: A Graphical History

    Yes! The East Coast is very British and South America is still mostly Spanish/Portuguese speaking but inland North America is still majority native (simply known as "Americans" 99% of the time) and several leading nations are led entirely by Natives; the Haudanosunee being the biggest example...
  3. Map Thread XX

    Well, so long as the two of them and the Prime Minister or whatever this timeline's Japan has aren't all puppets. Interesting to see the Kievan Rus' thriving.

    Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    Rupprecht was seriously supported by the British and French for a small window of time it seems. So possible. America apparently gave it a good thought as well
  5. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    The Allies had plenty of fighter bombers, and light bombers for interdiction missions. In 1943-45 German movement during daylight hours was severely limited.

    Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Obviously. Leaving aside the propaganda/symbolic part it allows for much better coordination as well when you are having a revolt breaking out all over the place.
  7. Medieval America Mark III

    Isle of Dwarves and Giants: Ecology of Bermuda Since life first invaded the land, islands have served as worlds in miniature, disconnected from the mainland’s ferocious competition. From the dwarf dinosaurs of Hatzeg to the giant lemurs of Madagascar and the flightless birds of New Zealand...
  8. “Arab spring” like uprisings in early 1980s

    Obviously USA would support uprisings in the Soviet zone and vice versa, while supporting dictators in their own spheres of interests.

    Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    Actually the better varieties of oriental tobacco, are quite lighter. They were blended with American tobacco to improve flavour, still do actually. Of course properly treating it is labour intensive more so than Virginia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_tobacco
  10. AHC/WI Reversed Cold War: Democratic Russia, Totalitarian America

    Russia was in complete chaos even before the October Revolution - the only reason Kerensky's government lasted as long as it did was because they enlisted the aid of the Bolsheviks to defeat a coup attempt over the summer. It's not turning into a nice, electoral democracy in any conceivable...
  11. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    Hirohito was of use to the US. No one in Germany could have acceptably played a figurehead role.
  12. WI/AHC: A Soviet Game Console

    Even then I highly doubt it would be good enough to sell in the West. Just Eastern Bloc and Third World, mostly the first.
  13. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    But it does no strategic, or economic damage to the enemy homeland.
  14. What if the U.S. outsourced manufacturing to post-Soviet Russia instead of China?

    Well, if not manufacturing, could the U.S. have tried to economically develop Russia in a way that would go better than OTL? Like push for equitable extraction of resources to benefit the public, and reform business corruption ahahahah lol that will never happen when they could simply work with...

    AHC: Defend the Falklands

    Pull a Red Storm Rising and assault from a seemingly innocent civilian cargo ship. It's a risky political move and likely to reduce whatever diplomatic support the Argentine government was expecting to get, so I don't think it would be attempted without hindsight. Even if the Junta rightly...
  16. The Eternal Empire: Emperor Maurice dies before being overthrown

    Roughly how strong are each of the polities thus far?
  17. WI/AHC: A Soviet Game Console

    Makes me think of the (Yugoslav) Galaksija. Have more stuff like that and you will eventually end up with a game console, but you're not going to jump right to a game console without going through homebrew and DIY computers first.
  18. Map Thread XX

    Interesting, whats the status of the HRE?
  19. Impact on Japan if the Emperor and Imperial monarchy was dismantled following WW2

    I guess it could be argued that such a compromise would not be much of a change from current monarchy in Japan. But there's a huge gap that can't be filled in between, namely the absence of the American effort to not implicate the Imperial House from the war responsibility, and Hirohito's own...
