  1. And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    I was thinking more about using Rhomania for a two-pronged invasion of Eastern Europe, like the Mongols invade from Russia and Rhomania. The success of it is debatable of course but I wouldn't be surprised if the Mongol leadership seriously considered it. I could see Rhomania making some money...

    Alternate Wikipedia Infoboxes VI (Do Not Post Current Politics or Political Figures Here)

    15 seeded Toledo upset 2 seed Duke in the first round, but then lost to Duke in the Sweet 16, and then a 1 seeded Duke went on to win the tournament? None of that makes any sense, Duke would have to be a 1, 2, and 3 seed all at the same time

  4. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2
    Threadmarks: Story 2536

    4000 yards off OMAHA Beach, 0820 May 14, 1944 USS Santa Fe turned to port. All four of her heavy turrets were pointed at the same target. Four of her six dual purpose turrets were also seeking the same aim point. The firing gong rang and soon, twenty barrels were going at rapid fire over...

    Let The Eagle Scream Version 2: Star-Spangled-Boogaloo

    Next updates coming soon! I might break up the guide a little bit to allow us to see other places around the world, and then use them as entertaining fillers.
  6. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    I agree that the substitution is more than just weight but that is the first thing that would have to be adjusted, A blast furnace doesn't care much where or how the steel will be used; the chemistry is addressed in the steelmaking shops which were basically Bessemer converters; but the amount...
  7. Is it possible to avoid the catastrophic economic and demographic fallout from the USSR collapse

    Probably not as bad as it happened but China had two big advantages 1)It wasn't Communist as long so there were some late middle aged to early elderly people who had a clue how a market worked. The Reds won in 1949 and Deng took over in 1978 so anyone over 50 or so had some memory of...
  8. What if Russia invested more heavily into American colonization?

    I like your way of thinking ( :) ) but the crown of Russian Empire usually was taken with the head: abdication meant just an early death of the hemorrhoids' (as for Peter III) or some other infectious disease (steel or led poisoning). In the legal terms it would mean nothing and as soon as Paul...

    No Percival and Mac not in the PI helps though
  11. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    That was how I read it. It is the minimum force to do that job but no more, so as to avoid weakening the main effort.
  12. Aside from Axis or Confederate victory, what is the most common AH scenario?

    There is a short novel published in Polish "Królowa Joanna d'Arc" (Queen Joan d'Arc). Primary POD is when Joan hears two voices from heaven: one says "Go to Compiegne and be received in Heaven as venerated martyr", second voice said "Go and lead a crusade against Hussites ". Secondary POD is...
  13. What if Russia invested more heavily into American colonization?

    This starts getting silly. "The most important things" would have to include a live stock, agricultural implements, weapons (the natives were not excessively friendly), warm clothes, a lot of food (at least year worth of supply) and many other items. Crossing the Bering Strait is an...
  14. What if Russia invested more heavily into American colonization?

    Apparently it was not entirely necessary to kill Paul what if they forced him to abdicate and offered to buy him Lousiana with some followers (the rest would later follow). It was only 15 million dollars. Russia gdp was double of that in 1800 that doesn't seem like a lot but it was still 4...

    Me too. I've always been a royalist at heart. Even though I'm American!

    WI: Woodrow Wilson Dies in 1919

    He'd probably lose but not by as great a landslide as Cox, due to incumbency advantage and Wilson's martyrdom.

    The Allied side is off to a very rough start again.

    Who's the fight with.... ;) Mac vs Luo_Zhuoying, or the Allies vs Japan? That's a (weak) joke.
  19. How accurate is the description of the Naval War in the Atlantic in Tom Clancy's "Red Storm Rising"?

    And this I serious doubt. The main problem for NATO was always the conventional superiority of the WP..They expectet they had to use nukes first. If they expected, that the Soviets would use Nukes on the drrop of a hat, NATO-strategy would be quite different. Besides, NATO attacks with planes...
