  1. Thousand-Week Reich - A 'realistic' Nazi victory scenario

    I believe the man you're looking for is Pyotr Pokryshev.
  2. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    I was confused and confounded when you mentioned complicated math
  3. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    Yes Tenerife and Ponta Delgada are almost certainly unviable with the load of coal Goeben left Messina on her first sortie from there, but if there are any German colliers positioned on the Atlantic, the Azores and Canaries would be logical places to rendezvous with a collier of some coal could...

    WI: Blockbuster Bought Netflix

    Instead of Netflix and chill we get blockbuster and chill.
  5. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    I'm using big words and complicated math to show that when people face really confusing choices, some people say fuck it.
  6. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    I agree he goes east to Austria-Hungary. I also think it was a lot more complicated than a single telegram.
  7. Name for a Liverpool/Manchester Megacity?

    Northwestria?
  8. Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    Nice to see the internal change of the Soviet Union and how their population is adjusting to the the Party's technocratic instead of the almost autocratic rule. I wonder if we will some ''neo communists''' start to emerge to counter the current socialists running the party.

    in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    Reacting to that kind of correction/lecturing in any manner besides any response fitting the "psychotic overreaction" category just encourages them to keep getting worse and worse.
  10. Explain the AH Quote

    The usage of the ancient civilization of Ghana in scientific papers was often used as part of a pan-African narrative suggesting commonalities between West African and Central African peoples. However, there were significant cultural differences which led to divisions and the formation of...
  11. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    Accurately bombing a given location was difficult with the technology of the day Operation Chastise - perhaps the first and certainly most well known raid of this type was conducted by the most Elite bomber squadron in the RAF and suffered 8 aircraft lost out of 19 (2 of which had to abort) -...
  12. Vidal

    WI: Blockbuster Bought Netflix

    Bumping this because it hasn't been too long and there's now a Netflix documentary about this that I recommend. Basically, the Blockbuster corporate guy they had on posited that Blockbuster was already transitioning to streaming and mail-in video rental but they didn't have enough capital to do...
  13. Have Triumph Motors continue to be a viable company up to the present day.

    Having BMW go under as it nearly did IOTL would eliminate a lot of competition in the "premium" segment.
  14. The Eden-Dirksen Pact: A Deal With the Devil?

    No, just no. Trotsky was no maniac wanting to invade other countries. In 1920 he even was one of the more cautious Communists when it came to the Soviet-Polish war. He wanted to strengthen the Comintern and don't do alliances with Fascist states as Stalin did. That doesn't mean that he would go...
  15. Have the Short's Belfast be more successful

    A couple of things that need to be taken into consideration.. The Belfast was VERY slow, hence it’s nickname of ‘Belslow’. It was intended as a heavy lift/strategic freighter, so replacing orders for C.130 which was a tactical freighter with Belfast’s is far from ideal. There was proposal for a...
  16. Map Thread XX

    If there is an Asgard reference, maybe one for Vanaheim as well?
  17. in U.S. circa 1990, “nanny state” takes the intellectual space of “political correctness”

    Yes, but that’s kind of the fun part of political correctness. It’s like describing a fat person as “horizontally challenged.” All the same, many pet owners will describe their pet as a member of the family and mean every ounce of it. But what if a 23-year-old kind of annoying lectures us...

    The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Moscow and Leningrad were leveled and flooded ITTL, right?
  19. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Yes. There is already really much of punishment when he is totally discredited and so deeply hated that probably him has live on endless fear that someone of his countryman is after him. Basically no one has not any respect on the man who just surrended to nazis and allowed them to do horrible...
  20. Khmer Rouge adopts Primitive communism

    Of course Pol Pot can choose whatever ideology he wants, but that doesn't mean that the Khmer Rouge will select him as leader nevertheless (and that the Khmer Rouge would win the civil war in such a scenario). You see, "successful" ideologies have to have a basis in the socioeconomic system of...
