  1. Best strategy for Santa Anna during and post texan revolution

    If I'm not mistaken, Urrea was a Federalist, while it was Santa Anna's centralist policies that led to instability in the outer regions and Texas in the first place.
  2. WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    Then recovering Vienna is a priority for all Mediterranean kingdoms.
  3. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    The DNC breathes a sigh of relief as that stupid Abrams photo gets butterflied out of existence.
  4. How important was the Dunkirk evacuation ?

    Several points. First no one needed mystical powers to understand Nazi goals, they were plain for the world to see. If the Soviets were Nazi allies they would've declared war on the UK. The Soviets didn't think one way or the other about the capture of the BEF, what mattered was that the war...
  5. WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    Vienna is a different matter. German states, Poland and Switzerland are DIRECTLY menaced, Italian states also, Spain and Portugal would likely join in any case BUT a are also DIRECTLY a interested (as Spain is ruled by the Emperor and Portugal by his cousin and brother-in-law). Henry VIII at...

    It's A Long Way To Nagasaki: The Anglo-Japanese War

    That's putting it mildly. I've heard French politics in the first half of the 20th Century described with the phrase 'and yet remarkably, the whole thing remained standing, despite the best efforts of everyone involved'.
  7. AHC: Cold War between Religious Communism and Atheist Capitalism

    Why does Marxism have to be the only definition for communism?
  8. Sony never makes PlayStation

    There is actually an entire TL over on the Alternate History Wiki based on this exact same premise, of a world in which the PlayStation was never developed by Sony: Ohga Shrugs TvTropes page for the TL
  9. Best strategy for Santa Anna during and post texan revolution

    Have Santa Anna Himself command the campaign to show that he is destined to be Mexico's savior (For political purposes to stabilize Mexico with his expected string of victories, to show his legitimacy to be in charge as president) Have Santa Anna avoid capture during the campaign Have the...
  10. WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    A couple things to note: - The Ottomans had naval superiority over the Central Mediterranean until Lepanto. - The Ottomans could easily take Venice's Adriatic possessions without worrying about a Austrian threat. - Spain in the early 1500s is not as powerful as Spain in the late 1500s...
  11. The son of Anne of Brittany and Charles 8th lives?

    Eleanor of Austria would marry in England or Lorraine, not France. Charles Orlando is much more likely to marry Elizabeth Tudor or her next sister Mary, who are also closer in age. Keep in mind who France had just lost one of his best Kings and if Charles VIII died as OTL is ruled by a Regent...
  12. It's A Long Way To Nagasaki: The Anglo-Japanese War

    That's a valid question. We have the benefit of hindsight and history, and we know the Nazis aren't going to settle for anything less than a glorious Third Reich spreading from the Atlantic to the Urals. But the French don't know that, so that might be a valid position for many Frenchmen to take...

    Effects on the UK's rail network with an earlier setting up of 'British Railways' in 1900

    What would be the effects on the UK's rail network if the 1921 Rail Act was expunged but instead 'British Railways' was set up in 1900 not in 1948? What would be the pro's and cons? How would the network evolve? Would economies be made by using standard locomotives and rolling stock earlier...

    WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    There were two other crusades before against the Ottomans, and both ended in such disaster that Europe was exhausted of the prospect of trying again for decades.
  15. The Sons in Splendor Vol IV: The Eclipse of the Sons

    Any plans to make a map/commission one for what things look like as of the start of this volume?
  16. AHC: Cold War between Religious Communism and Atheist Capitalism

    Monasteries, abbeys and nunnery's are basically communist in its original meaning. Prior to Henry VIII splinting from Rome and reforming the church in England religious institutions held power, land & industries some monasteries it is though were on the verge of an industrial revolution with...
  17. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Wait... The Holy Russian Empire actually managed to set up their own national television network before its unavoidable total collapse? Well, that is certainly impressive.
  18. WI: Suleiman takes Vienna

    They will? Gustav Vasa has just become Swedish crown and will avoid doing something like that. German states will say pass. England is ruled by Henry VIII who will take any crusade wishes from the pope to break with the pope and marry Anne. Portugal will not join and continue colonizing. Spain...
  19. Name for a Liverpool/Manchester Megacity?

    When you fly out of Trondheim in Norway you have to go on the Highway to Hell to get to the airport. It does freeze: Hell has a train station too:
  20. Claudius if Germanicus becomes Emperor?

    Germanicus’ eldest son Nero would be his heir, with his second son Drusus after him and then Caligula (and I would NOT exclude the possibility of or surviving sons for Germanicus and Agrippina), then would came Drusus Caesar and his sons. Claudius‘ highest possible placement in the succession...
