  1. Remember the Texas! The United States in World War II (an alternate history)

    Oh, absolutely. Nonetheless, at risk of another slight derail here, what might the impact be of 500-600 fewer bombers available for the Blitz (or perhaps a few hundred Hawks that could supplement Fighter Commands numbers in the early days) or, more directly, interdicting the evacuation at...
  2. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    Franco is not going to declare war on Britain. He's not a fool, he knows his country is wrecked and dependent on outside imports to function. If Britain blockades him, and the Royal Navy is still more than strong enough to do so, then his country is going to collapse and he knows it.
  3. The German Century

    Is Japan allied with Communist? Because without them screwing things up I can't see the way US joining the war.
  4. What would the Americas be like if the Chinese colonized it?

    If it leads to China industrializing instead of Europe, you might actually have a world government (although it's unlikely). Britain managed to control a quarter of the world at its peak, a China with the same level of industrial development but dozens of times more people could possibly control...

    Photos from Featherston's Confederacy/ TL-191

    The Great Climax - The Second Battle of Bermuda A photo of two Royal Navy flying boats stationed in Bermuda prior to the second battle for the island, circa 1943. Ever since it's inception in 1775 during the American Revolution, the primary enemy of the United States Navy (otherwise known as...
  6. DBWI: Caesar does not conquer Parthia

    Before the being assassinated in 44 BC Caesar started a campaign against Parthia, that resulted in it finally being conquered and added to the Roman empire. Some people say that he hesitated between conquering conquering Parthia and Gallia. Do you think that Gallia would be a better or worse...
  7. Dunkirk disaster and Spain declares war on Britain.

    If Gibralter falls then Malta would also be taken. This along with a Dunkirk disaster would surely push britain to seek peace. No one in Britain could think that they could turn the situation around in 1940 being kicked out of the Mediterranean and losing hundreds of thousands of men. It would...

    Kentucky Fried Politics: A Colonel Sanders Timeline

    ATTENTION TO ALL WHO VOTED IN THE POLLS! I had to go back and replace the polls with new ones because the results were not visible on my end, either! Thank you very much to those who pointed this out to me, but it does mean that if you want your vote to count, you now have to vote in the new...
  9. WI: Warsaw Pact armies if USSR liberalizes

    I seriously question that. Without strong Soviet support neither intervention happens. From what I read the decision for the Germans not to participate in 1968 was made in Moscow when one of Brezhnev's henchmen in Czechoslovakia pointed out that German participation was likely to incite more...
  10. Remember the Texas! The United States in World War II (an alternate history)

    Is that just the rifle company, or include its slice of artillery, engineering, tank & antitank, & other support. Two very different numbers obviously. The Allies counted a 'division slice' at different ammounts for differing circumstance. For the first 90 days of the OVERLORD op it was...
  11. How long would it take for the Confederates to abolish slavery if they won the civil war?

    To answer the basic question, I think that chattel slavery is going to be around for a very long time in a victorious Confederacy, and a systemically-exploited black underclass by any name is going to be around in the CSA for as long as there's a CSA. Ending slavery internally would only happen...

    Have Wolesley Motors continue to be a viable company up to the present day.

    Would Jaguar buying Wolesley in 1927 after their collapse help?
  13. AHC: Make Morocco part of "Europe" to an extent, like Turkey or Russia, with a POD past 1500 AD

    Well yes. The point is to make them Western I guess, seen as an equal by 19th century European powers and beyond. Maybe a little like Japan too?
  14. TL-191: Featherston's Finest - Uniforms, Weapons, and Vehicles of the CSA and Freedom Party

    And how long would that sentiment last? And how much blood is the Union willing to pay, on their end, for that order? I expect violent resistance on a scale that makes Utah pale in comparison. The Union can try to meet that with their own reprisals, but this will only continue that cycle of...
  15. Remember the Texas! The United States in World War II (an alternate history)

    Whatever the kill ratio was it had a lot to do with the French being on the defense and picking their tactical engagements. Other factors were the Germans not yet being perfect at escorting bombers. IIRC the bulk of the kills were bombers. A third was the distance factor for damaged aircraft...
  16. No G harder then Kenny G

    You are not alone!
  17. AHC: Make Morocco part of "Europe" to an extent, like Turkey or Russia, with a POD past 1500 AD

    Wait, was it? Huh, yes they were. Well, I just learned something.
  18. WI: Queen Victoria Was Male/King Victor?

    A make child would be most likely named Alexander Edward, Alexander George, Edward Alexander or George Alexander. No way he would be ever called Victor. Alexander Edward would be the closest mirror of her OTL name

    Remember the Texas! The United States in World War II (an alternate history)

    The same as most of the Herr was not beaten by the Russians fighting them in Russia... I think that the IJA had 55 US division equivalents of troops fighting the Chinese Nationalists or about 2 million men. That is a lot of Japanese infantry not fighting Americans, British or Australians. A...
