    For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I agree more this and less soap opera nonsense. It's a show about space so be that. Let the soap opera stuff be set dressing but always ensure that the core of the show is foremost. I enjoyed the logic of white guns as that is scientifically sound. More of this would be welcomed.

    WI: Reagan wins the GOP nomination in 76, loses to Carter

    Bush may be an option in 1980, especially if he doesn't get involved in Reagan's 1976 run.
  3. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    Of course, Muhammad himself traded with Byzantine Syria and was well versed (honestly really shockingly well versed for some random trader, some of those stories would be pretty esoteric even in the 6th century) in Christian/Jewish theology. That doesn't really state anything about how familiar...

    Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    Kiki would have a tear in her eye as she did it, though. Honestly makes me think of Kiki deserving her own graphic novel at this point.
  5. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    This ahead-of-it’s-time design featured an innovative first stage based on a soap bubble.
  6. Alternate History: Explain the historical event

    Famous battle of 1278 where Rome finally fell to the barbarians - pagans from the North on an anti-Christian “crusade” Also known as “The Downfall of the Holy Inquisition’s Knights of Dominikus-Order and the battle of Angels Castle and the Aurelian Walls and the blooding of the Tiber and the...
  7. AHC: Rename a country, that unified from a long-described region

    Wallachia or less likely Moldavia/Moldova for all of Romania seems plausible if one of those states unified the nation earlier than OTL. I wonder if Tripolitania might have worked for Libya the way Tunisia did for the region dominated by Tunis and Algeria for the region dominated by Al-Djazair...
  8. AHC: Peerless Air Ministry

    OOPs! OK, the MB4 and the MB 5 are basically the same air frame with different engines. So I got a bit ahead of myself and it should be the Monarch engined version which is the MB4 . I also left out Austin at Longbridge and will include them in a later update. By now in as 1941 starts the...

    What would the Americas be like if the Chinese colonized it?

    Oh, and btw, the alternate history Youtuber Whatifalthist has made a video on exactly this topic!
  10. Have Buck Rogers In The 25th Century be as successful as Star Trek

    Seven seasons? No way, they'd run out of story ideas before too long. Three, maybe four, seasons would be a lot more realistic. BUT, since the challenge is seven, maybe start by keeping the original tone for at least three seasons, then two aboard the Searcher, then two more back on Earth.
  11. DBWI: Caesar does not conquer Parthia

    Well, Britain was the largest exporter of tin. The wealth from the tin trade basically paid Atlantic Empire's early years of expansion all on its own. So if the Romans reached the Celtic Channel, they would definitely cross into Britain. The tin trade was massive. With easy access to Britain's...

    Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    I mean, come on! It's called the Platypus! How could you not want a Shuttle II that looks like that! I think it was mentioned before it'll also combine features of Boeing's lifting body, so I imagine the final design will look quite interesting. I find it notable how many of the 'alternative...

    Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    By this time, the army's railroad division was pretty impressive. (Need to find where I put my book on it.)

    WIP Map Thread

    Yes and Im more or less thinking that the Song ITSELF will remain pretty neutral, as its become a puppet of corporates, or in this kongsis, which are already pushing into the northern states and taking advantage of it.
  15. Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    It's something that's been going on for a while now, so it's good that you bought it up. If @kirbopher15 likes Blues Brothers-themed alt-history so much, then he should learn to make his own wikiboxes or ask to learn from someone else (I have no hate for kirbopher, but it is getting pretty...
  16. WI: Albert Einstein, President of Israel

    In 1952, Israel's first president Chaim Weizmann passed away. Israel's prime minister David Ben-Gurion offered Einstein the post, but he refused. What if Einstein had accepted the position? Could he have done something significant with it? Yes, I'm aware that the office of President of Israel...

    King Tosti?

    As you will see from my reply, I’ve spent some time cogitating on this WI. I’m not wedded to the conclusions I draw, especially as I’m sure I’ve neglected some factors that will affect the outcome… And I ask many more questions than I have answers for. Anyhoo, enjoy another tuppence’s worth...
  18. Name for a Liverpool/Manchester Megacity?

    Just call it Liverpool, as the superior city of the metropolis it would naturally subsume the far inferior area down the East Lancs.
