  1. No Soviet Aid to KMT Part 2

    In this timeline the powers influencing China are different. Regarding the major powers, Germany remains one of the three greatest empires, Russia is stronger than the USSR but internally weak, France is super weak, and Italy has neither lost nor gained anything (apart from defeat and...
  2. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    Oh but Fascism was all the rage in the 1930s - everyone was doing it - and the Elite of many of the nations that were not, liked what they saw of it! The Italians, The Greeks, The Poles, The Germans, arguably even the Spanish at the end of the Civil war - all were doing it Portugal was doing...
  3. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    True though if any are available then tanks armed with the 5cm KwK 40 would be sent. The same works in reverse so if the British are attacking they have tanks that can knock out German tanks beyond the range the German tanks can damage them. The main issue though is if the German tank...
  4. AHC: Stalin Strikes First

    Much has been made of the plan presented by Zhukov and Timoshenko, but Ian Kershaw doubts that they had an immediate pre-emptive strike in mind: "Worried as they were by the incessant flow of intelligence reports on troop movements together with indications (if not always consistent) of hostile...
  5. WI/PC: A Christian Japan

    For an even earlier PoD you may have Christians from India or the Middle East to end up in Japan. Indian Christians are the best option. They should end up on Tang China and then in Japan not much later. OFC this Christianity will be as distinct from European Christianity as Russian Orthodoxy...

    Austria-Hungary consulted italy.

    Getting Italy into the war as an ally is basically impossible with any terms acceptable to Vienna (and not just the Austro-Hungarian war hawks of 1914, handing over Istria would both land lock the Austrian half of the Empire and piss off those slavic minorities that aren't already pissed off)...
  7. 1933-43: Italy remains on forefront of aviation?

    Italian companies and pilots were setting a lot of records with their aircraft, and making a lot of 'everyday' aircraft in the interwar period. They were making monoplanes when a lot of countries were scoffing at the idea. But, by mid 1930s, their development seems to have all but stopped, and...

    WI/PC: A Christian Japan

    One could work around the Church of the East, as it adapted to Chinese culture, and have that be one of Japan's imports from Tang dynasty China. This 'Sinified' Christianity could then be adapted further to meet Japanese sensibilities to serve as a base for further expansion. (And more good...
  9. AHC: Stalin Strikes First

    This to me is the most likely. Hitler counted on being able to fight one land front at a time. He got drawn into Africa to rescue the Italians but in general he moved his army back and forth from east to west to meet the current enemy. Since Stalin had lots of intelligence that the Germans...
  10. The Forge of Weyland

    Ah yes Antwerp This is from Neihorster out of vanden Bloock google Neihorster antwerp defences. Which has maps and pics But you have three positions - PFA - Positon fortifee dAnvers, which curves around north of the city 94km in length consisting of 23 forts ( company positions with 8 mmg...
  11. Moonlight in a Jar: An Al-Andalus Timeline

    I can also see the germans joining the Nordics as well as revenge for the lantern wars.
  12. Sony never makes PlayStation

    I think Sega would have a good chance to get a lot of the 3rd party support that Playstation got IOTL. One of the advantages the PS1 had over the N64 was that CDs were much cheaper to produce than cartridges, not to mention that the production and distribution process was much more flexible...
  13. Sony never makes PlayStation

    I can potentially see the Dreamcast outselling the Gamecube, especially if there is no Xbox and Sega manages to secure some hot exclusives on the platform. In regards to DVDs, I think it's likely that the standardization of DVD playback on consoles would perhaps be delayed without the PS2 and...

    WI/PC: A Christian Japan

    I was thinking of an earlier POD but this is definitely interesting. How would they get the assistance needed tough? And of course, to stick it would need to bebe massively different from its european counterpart, with quite probably some significant syncretism involved in due time.
  15. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    Clarification: you spent last week trying to get what?

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

    Full honesty, I legitimately prefer the current build, with Zhukov and his B-team after he dies being my favorites to play. Beria's death is IMO just the right degree of black comedy for the situation, and his being in charge makes sense given his OTL role and to explain why the USSR is still...
  17. The Stomach of Man Under Socialism: A Culinary History of Socialist America

    So by the present day in which the book is written, they absolutely get there. But like with democratic and authoritarian governments the world over, it usually takes a disaster first.
  18. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    I had thought that the lore was that Kwame Ture came to Cameroon to lead it in a pan-African program. I could be wrong about that but I do in fact mean Kwame Ture, the African-American black nationalist.
  19. Sony never makes PlayStation

    I think without the pressure of Sony, Nintendo would launch the 64DD as intended, and remember, Nintendo was all in with online via Randnet and netscape
  20. Hitler incapacitated on 1 june 1940 (stroke/aphasia)

    I would not be surprised by a plot by Himmler and others to kill Hitler. They would hold an elaborate funeral before they got on with the infighting.
