  1. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Yes, right in my feelings.
  2. Resurgam

    In a freak coincidence, both Stalin and Hitler die during the beginning of Operation Barbarossa

    I'm sorry to fixate on this in lieu of the rest of your response - which I agree with - but I am not whitewashing Goering. I did not challenge the Holocaust occurring under his Reich. I merely questioned if the Holocaust would have been followed as fanatically as it was under Hitler. As you...
  3. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    There were waverers but this pushed it into the Hawk camp.

    DBWI: Caesar does not conquer Parthia

    He didn't conquer the whole empire, he just took Mesopotamia and installed a friendly vassal king.
  5. WI: Alexander the Great lives to 75?

    Now that is a very real possibility, although not everyone had the complete lack of succession rules the Romans had. Macedon and Persia had both managed stable successions multiple times. There was certainly drama often enough, but not empire shattering civil wars each time the king died.
  6. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    The BEF could have been annihilated in 1940, and they could have put it back together by 43 - That's my point, 43 figures don't matter. No one is suggesting that if the BEF had been lost, they would have been unable to reconstitute an army.

    Horus Triumphant - an Alternate Antiquity timeline

    It did seem likely to happen, not a given but depending on the rulers or lack of them on both sides a opportunity is to be seized on. One needs to conquer new territory, to prove worthy of their father. Seems the question may be if this is a step to far for the Argead empire, will this be a...
  8. Kentucky Fried Politics: A Colonel Sanders Timeline

    Barry Goldberg is the brother from The Goldbergs, IOTL he is a radiologist. Lisa J. Simpson is, in addition to a funny joke, a real person. IOTL she married a guy named Brown and was a candidate for the 5th District of Washington running as a Democrat, and was later named Washington Secretary of...
  9. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    The Interstate Highway System was as much about Joe Six-pack using roads a lot as for defense, probably more. They probably would have been built eventually, maybe delayed five years.
  10. Alternate warships of nations

    Yep time was the one thing Pacfleet didn't have throughout 1942. Well not unless it wanted to stay on the defensive
  11. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    I really doubt that would have been a valid reason as far as the anti-war faction were concerned, and of course the most important part of it was still that it wasn't a cabinet decision.
  12. DBWI: Caesar does not conquer Parthia

    Maybe it is at least easier to conquer? Gauls have neither horses nor cataphracts
  13. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    Even making the jump that: 1. The Spanish would join after the accelerated Fall of France. 2. The Germans could move forces into Spain to attack Gibraltar. 3. The British lose Gibraltar 4. The French decide to join the Germans after fighting the Germans - and the Germans allowing sufficient...
  14. Catalina, the Black Widow

    They are all interesting characters... Maria inherited the OTL religious fervor of her mother (whose relationship with religion cooled a lot after Henry‘s death, specially once she is remarried to Louis XII and again widowed without children)
  15. WI: Alexander the Great lives to 75?

    A darkly amusing thought I had, in response to everyone talking about likely heirs from Alexander's Persian brides and their legitimacy relative to Alex IV: When Alexander the Great dies at 75, he'll likely have several sons and daughters, all legitimate, each in their 30s or older, and with...
  16. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    Yes, I worded the "too" poorly since it's only Britain and Saxons that were Christianized (my mistake on the Saxons, though). Slavs and their neighbors were pagan well into the middle ages, with Lithuania being nominally Christian but practically pagan, and the same was true of Prussians.
  17. AHC: Roman Canaries

    Another good option is for Canaries to be a pirate base that Romans would have to destroy in order to prevent raids. Then they set up a base there
  18. Kantai Kessen

    Alternate warships of nations

    Which is a bad idea, because by October/November, Lunga Point airfield will be ready to operate - just with IJNAS planes. There will probably be a sizeable and well-equipped IJA contingent on Guadalcanal as well. WATCHTOWER was very close timing-wise. If anything, early August was optimal.
  19. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    Franco would only declare war if he knew Britain had approached a neutral power to begin peace negotiations. He knows damn well Spain can't face another war but would jump at getting Gibraltar at the conference table.
