  1. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    A fucking landmine is not worthy of claim Patton's life.
  2. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    You don't have the population to support it though. The US would need to have the population density of at least China for it to make sense (China's population density is lower than most people think, it has a high population but China is big it is less population dense than Germany and has...

    Is it possible to avoid the catastrophic economic and demographic fallout from the USSR collapse

    Soviets didn't have planned obsolescence to keep customers buying. Many ancient Frigerators in the US were junked not from the compressor failing, but from being too small, and later for energy efficiency reasons . By the 1970s, most companies switched to needing replacement in 10-20 years...
  4. What if Russia invested more heavily into American colonization?

    Next thing we know he's gonna say otl Alaska colonization was ASB x'D
  5. Archduke

    Likely marriage candidates for a surviving William, Duke of Gloucester?

    She wasn’t his original designated heir. That was her older sister and her husband (Duke Of Holstein-Gottorp) were. So no guarantees.

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

    Here's an idea Instead of buying Daimler from BSA, Jaguar instead buys the Wolesley brand from Morris Motors in 1960 and produces and markets all further Jaguar saloons as Wolesley cars leaving the Jaguar brand just for their sport models? The Wolesley 38/42 Series, launched in 1961, the first...

    TL-191: After the End

    how many superbombs does US and Germany possess? Who will be the third country to possess superbombs? (Sorry if I ask too much questions)

    The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    An interesting development for Nizhny Novgorod, although it probably leaves them unable to exert as much control over their lands as the Tsardom of Muscovy did OTL once they have control over most of Russia, which could push back eastern expansion towards the Urals and Siberia for quite a while...

    Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    Hadn't thought of that, interesting idea :) . Might be a bit early for the anti-mine movement though, this is still when people are thinking "hey why don't we put nukes into mines so the Russians will step on them and we wipe out a huge heap of the Red Army" more than thinking about getting rid...
  10. Is it possible to avoid the catastrophic economic and demographic fallout from the USSR collapse

    Goodwill is a charity shop people donate their cheap crap that is mostly nearly worn out. Most Soviet goods of that were of that quality. There were a few exceptions but that is the rule. There is a reason why East European industry couldn't be sold for more than "pennies on the dollar" which...
  11. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    Istanbul is not right on the Black Sea, but is within range of naval artillery firing from the Black Sea. You are right that the Russian navy would pose a serious threat, and by controlling the sea, would be able to support an amphibious landing. I would think the Ottomans would depend on...
  12. Mr. All-American: The Nile Kinnick Story

    Chapter 9- Trick plays from Tricky Dick. On August 9th 1974, Richard Nixon resigned from office after being told by congressional leaders that they would more than likely vote to impeach. Among those looking to impeach Nixon was the Senator who was seen by Nixon as a friend and ally, Nile...

    I suppose I deserve this one
  14. Boldly Going: A History of an American Space Station

    Yes but that in and of itself doesn't solve the 'basic' issues of the plumes :) As noted those direct impingement plumes are pumping out debris at speeds up to Lunar escape velocity. A 'berm' won't stop something coming in from an sub-orbital trajectory and while a regolith-concrete "wall" might...
  15. TL-191: After the End

    I don't understand how human actions can butterfly away weather events, but I'll accept it. Beyond this, are you're saying that the USA has an all-North American power grid (and presumably telephone / internet one too)? If so, then adding Mexico, Caribbean, and Central America to the phone...

    Hatsunese Space Program - HASDA (alternate Japan) | 1976-07-23 | Final Utahime mission, Venus orbiter, 2nd lunar lander probe
    Threadmarks: Phase 2 - 11 - M-1/1A, plasma wave science, third lunar impact, first interplanetary probe (1967)

    It's mostly just a more ambitious version of the Japanese space program, not always Vocaloid-related. ________________ Phase 2 - 11 1967-04-05 - M-1 launched "Denpa" (electromagnetic wave) to another highly elliptical orbit. Its primary instrument was a plasma wave detector to measure how...

    Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    Au Revoire, Patton.
  18. TL-191: After the End

    In 2021, that is the international situation. However, this will not last. The other great powers who effectively run the International Security Council will gain superbombs of their own over the course of the Twenty-First Century.
  19. AHC: The US with a high speed rail system as prolific as in East Asia or western Europe

    This often comes up, but isn't being big a reason for high speed rail to cross the large distances fast?
  20. Wrapped in Flames: The Great American War and Beyond

    hmm part of me hopes the UK and US having an forever antagonist relationship is not what happens and engilsh canuck did say his current plan is to end at 1870 or the 1920s so my guess is the victory in the west gives Grant or Pope captial to run for President after the war .from there there...
