  1. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    yeah part of the reason why the americans could get so many spares compared to the brits is that they had lesser numbers of diffrent tanks . And people are forgetting that panzers for example had like 15 variants for pz3-s and 4-s for example. And apparently they had trucks from all over europe...

    Some questions about Nazi-Soviet relations.

    In addition to the two excellent replies you have already received, let me add something that we've been discussing in another thread today. This for Hitler was not a war of standard, classic territorial expansion. It was the opening salvo of the end-war between Germans and "world Jewry"...
  3. VPOTUS holds a cabinet position.

    For a short time. Didn't matter so much with Wahsington. In 1796 Jefferson was the runner up and got the consolation prize. By 1800 factionalism/partisanship was consolidated. Each elector had two presidential votes and cast one for each person on the party ticket. One person was supposed to...
  4. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    okay wierd for some reason i dont get any notifications about new chapters on this ._. well as always awesome update
  5. What if Russia invested more heavily into American colonization?

    Nope. It was just a failure on pretty much all accounts. 😨 The main problem with the idea is that so far nobody came with a plausible explanation of: (a) Why would the Russian Empire consider buildup on the other side of the Pacific as any kind of a priority. (b) After there is a coherent...

    Request Maps/Flags/Coats of Arms/Heraldry here, II

    I can't do the arms but would something like below fit your idea? Note the white circle represents the arms which are slightly offset to fit the slope.

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I might have fixed it. I can't yet figure out how to add pictures as thumbnails instead of loading the full pic to the post. The 'attach files' dohickey might have an error?

    What are some likely convergences?

    The Chicago Portage is very useful, but just looking at a map of the region, it’s hard to argue that would be the only place for America’s third-largest city. Prior to Chicago’s meteoric growth, most people thought St. Louis would be the greatest city of the West, and it’s reasonably plausible...
  9. What are some likely convergences?

    No all you need is a good political screw to avoid it.
  10. The Empire Parnell Built

    I wouldn't say they're failed states as such but definitely poorer, less developed and more depopulated. The kernel of this idea came from me thinking "what if I butterfly away the full awfulness of the two World Wars in Europe but that turns out to be not a great thing in the long run?"...
  11. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    The thread starter's idea is probably that Argentinian attack unfolds in any case, on a historical timetable. The plan must include an urgent shipping of mechanization, so the extension of the Port Stanley airport is undertaken ASAP. This is where the best part of anti-shipping strikes must...
  12. AHC: Defend the Falklands

    Buy an old tramp freighter and have it play Lloyds Looper in the South Atlantic until the war starts, then it goes to Ascension and lays a bunch of obsolete sea mines until it gets caught, or runs out, at which point it either surrenders or steams away. Until minesweepers arrive Ascension cannot...
  13. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    I’ve read something similar it also didn’t help as well that the tanks race ahead of the infantry and their own supply lines as well.

    AHC/WI: Stronger IJN light cruiser line

    Might want to see the radical differences between the fleets., "A Tale of Two Doctrines: Japanese and American Naval Surface Warfare Doctrine, 1941-1943." Comment: notice how the IJN lesson learned from Java Sea while the Americans did not? Mikawa made sure to use his fish within their...

    AHC: Rename a country, that unified from a long-described region

    What do you say about my idea that Greece in a scenario where Greeks adopted a national identity emphasizing their Byzantine past instead of adopting the label of Hellene would be called R(h)omania?
  16. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    i still think like a 10-15% reduction on overall tank production in exchange for more spares so the tanks keep running better could be a thing to pursue ? Would that be enough is the question i think? Since the timeline is heading towards abit more tanks compared to otl for the british atleast...
  17. WI: Woodrow Wilson Dies in 1919

    ...nothing, as the will to enforce the harsher terms wouldhave been just as lacking as was the will to enforcce the OTL ones. Did he promise anything about Black rights? I don't str *any* politician doing so in the "Progressive" era. The progress they looked for was pretty much entirely for...
  18. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    Judging by the title of the last chapter, David's going to integrate what remains of Eastern Georgia. I wonder with the mongols breaking though the Caucasus the powers inhabiting the Armenian highlands would feel threatened enough to help Trebizond?

    So how hard is it for a beat cop to become head of the FBI?
