  1. AHC: Cold War between Religious Communism and Atheist Capitalism

    Technocracy supports a centrally planned economy and therefore isn't "capitalist".
  2. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    I mean at least very recently the capabilities of "Smart munitions" has gotten to the point where it's actually somewhat feasibly to say target a single moving vehicle via a drone flying several miles away being controlled by a guy on the other side of the world. And then not only realistically...
  3. Was Austria-Hungary really doomed?

    As doomed as Nintendo ie NO
  4. Revival of Mongolia as a military power

    Can the soviets revive Mongolia as a military power to pose a threat to Chinese on their northern border after the sino Soviet split of 1960s?
  5. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    The Star Wars prequels weren't flops. They did great at the box office.
  6. Was Austria-Hungary really doomed?

    Its not always exaggerated but its very specific. Hungarian Nationalism ( and repressions of other nationalities) is a big thing, Czech for example not so much outside specific groups but under the very extreme pressures of war with all of your enemies exploiting anythbing they can to do harm...

    Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    I find it rather interesting that you are using Thomas Aquinas's definitions for whether something is right, and yet also claiming that killing civilians never is. You know, since Thomas Aquinas was a supporter of the Crusades, which involved a good deal of slaughter of civilians, for far less...
  8. AHC: Cold War between Religious Communism and Atheist Capitalism

    Just to keep the conversation moving with any two countries you think work the best how do you think the rivalry will play out up to 1990?

    The Plantagenet Succession

    If only real world producers casted Actors who’s age fits with the time span of the series. Also Andrew was in Doctor Who? I only know of him through the Incredible Spoderman.
  10. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Possibly, yes. It gets even more interesting if you assume that the pre-1918 orthography isn't a strictly Tsarist thing but rather linked to anti-communist idealism and/or religiosity - then the pre-1918 orthography crowd gets to include such disparate characters as Men, Rodzaevsky, Decemberist...
  11. Hitler incapacitated on 1 june 1940 (stroke/aphasia)

    I think that Goering would have offered peace on similar terms - after Britain anyway.
  12. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    He won't really be seen as clean, a large part of that OTL was the need for a good German and the reputation he had. He would however likely be seen as "As clean as it gets" There were atrocities committed by men under his command, but to this day there remains no actual evidence of direct...
  13. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    ...to reach its completion, as the bar for renewal is much easier to attain (those budgets again. Honestly, it takes a particular kind of story to *need* a huge number of episodes. While I'm in absolute agreement that more FAMK would be amazing, the general formula does tend to work better for...
  14. A Thorn In The Rose: A War Of The Roses TL

    That makes a lot of sense I was kind of thinking if Margaret Beaufort OTL son Henry VII of England. I also wonder if like OTL Henry will Richard iV or V be king some day.
  15. Prolonging the Futility: A WW2 European TL

    I still think Goering would have stopped the Holocaust Also that the Ukrainians and Balts would have been reliable in that they had good reason to hate Stalin and fear his vengeance.
  16. AHC Screw Russia as hard as possible.

    One could argue that the White factions were all authoritarian but none had the impulse to be totalitarian like the Bolshies, except maybe fringe loonies like Sternberg. A White regime would be like Franco, not Moose or Hitler. Franco's Spain was ultimately reformable. So would a White...
  17. AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Metropolis would have been fine if Germany had kept inflation levels high. Maybe not 1923 high, but the new stable currency ruined the financial model of the German movie industry to break even from screenings abroad taking advantage of the highly devalued German currency.

    AHC: Save a notorious flop

    Not quite notorious but certainly a flop that deserved better...Treasure Planet. It's probably was being screwed over by releasing it so close to the same time as the second Harry Potter film and the bad marketing too which all helped to it's downfall as well as the end of 2D animation. Here...
  19. in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    I think a majority of Americans wanted flag-burning to be against the law. I wish my fellow citizens had felt differently.
  20. Can Persia Avoid Islam? If it Does, Can it Remain Zoroastrian?

    Did they know who acharmenids were? I thought by Hepthalite invasion they have began to claim their origin to kayanids
