  1. WIP Map Thread

    Fine work! I also struggle with the "vassal of a vassal" situations. A distinctive colored border for the Wabanaki might help. I am somewhat reminded of US Indian reservations, which can have territory in more than one US state (notably, Navajo lands).
  2. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    The Turks after '43 were involved, indirectly in the war. SBS boats and men sheltered in Turkish waters and on the coastline when raiding Italian occupied islands. The Turks were quite willing to turn a blind eye to such activities. With a more successful Allies in '41-42 I somehow doubt that...
  3. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Marvel Comics since the Disney buyout: Have Marvel and Disney agree to a deal that gives the comics division far more autonomy without meddling from Disney (who employed Sana Amanat to lead despite having no credentials at all) that resulting in Marvel Comics' restructure into a far left...

    Would British broadcasting be as tightly controlled in the UoB like OTL Britain was with the BBC?

    Threadmarks: Back to Commieland

    Back in China, events were evolving. At this point, the ROC had gone as far inland as they could, even with the millions of volunteers. These warlords were just too powerful to make a full-scale assault practical. Instead, the government began to establish permanent infrastructure to begin...
  6. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    A better option for the Argentines would be to attack Ascension Island and prevent it's runway to be used by the RAF. They could mount a raid at the same time as they attack the Falkland/Malvinas. A seaborne assault accompanied by engineers to mine/crater the runway. While there might be a...
  7. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Rhodes will be a different matter entirely, it's much smaller, it's easier to isolate, the enemy forces will be limited, etc. Not sure how much that would do. I was more thinking about preventing the Suez Canal being mined.

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Watched it on VHS when I was 12, even my dad could understand it and enjoyed it! . . . and that's saying something.
  9. Hitler incapacitated on 1 june 1940 (stroke/aphasia)

    A post-Nazi government isn't going to happen. After Hitler dies , Goering is going to take over. He might have had problems if Hitler died in 1944 or 1945 but in 1940 he would have no problem. In 1944 he would have to fight off other Nazis going for the throne but not in 1940.
  10. Tilden vs Hancock: Who'd be the better president?

    The 1876 and 1880 elections are the closest elections ever, in terms of the electoral vote and the popular vote respectively. Samuel J Tilden was a knife's edge away from being the 19th president, and Winfield S Hancock not that far from being the 20th. Add to these elections being next to each...
  11. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    I admit I didn't see it (or even heard of it before) but going up against Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Ghostbusters couldn't have helped. Buckaroo Banzai
  12. The 1988 Democratic primaries if Jesse Jackson didn’t run

    Assuming another popular African American candidate doesn't run, Al Gore might sweep the south. That could give him a lot of momentum after Super Tuesday and maybe snowball into him winning the nomination. I feel like 1988 Gore would be a much stronger candidate against Bush than Dukakis was.

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

    This is false, plain and simple. Not only the 1946 election shows the supposed 'massive boom in communist/socialist action' was hollow, but especially as far as the Socialist Party is concerned, the party's leadership which was composed of pre-war socialists included a lot of former military...
  16. What would the Treaty of Berlin look like if Germany chose to back Russia's claims?

    Russian pan-Slavic policy was a laughingstock of Europe and the only way for AII and Gorchakov not to look as a pair of idiots was to drop it ASAP. Analogy with Austria circa CW is not applicable: (a) Austria had moral obligations (debt of a gratitude) to Russia but Russia owned absolutely...
  17. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Naval gun support (and the advance of Montgomery) was the way that they ended up salvaging Avalanche in the end, wasn't it? It offered up the Royal Navy as sacrificial lambs to the German anti-shipping capability in the area though. Warspite took a Fritz X hit and another near-miss and was...
  18. Hitler incapacitated on 1 june 1940 (stroke/aphasia)

    The Nazis wouldn't have made this offer. The implication is that this is a post-Nazi regime which is broadly satisfied that the humiliation of WWI has been expunged. What if they called an election and elected a government? Are there any conditions such a government might vary? I think a...
