  1. Stupid Luck and Happenstance, Thread III

    It looks like the L-1011 is cancelled but maybe Lockheed can make it up on military contracts.
  2. Flag Thread V

    Yes, but that's too hard to draw. I wanted to make one simplar.
  3. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Question: were there any 1988 movies that Cruise was considered for but never got? Same goes for other actors mentioned in Movies 1988, because my mind thinks there's opportunity in there. So basically, there are people who think Nothing Can Last exists in the same universe as Alien, and if...
  4. Euro airplanes

    So today we have the eurofighter, a moderately successful fighter jet which has been sold to air forces around the world. What if as well as a fighter the conglomerate was given permission to created and develop a number of other aircraft functions such as bomber, transport plane and even...

    I could if i want make Louis XI a idiot after all i could act like a god in my personal TL so i could change characters personalities
  6. WI no Deluge in Poland

    John Casimir would divorce Marie Louise Gonzaga, as he attempted before Deluge (on the ground, that she was his brother's wife). It was during his exile when he get closer to his wife, who supported him during these harsh times.
  7. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    Depends on the nature of the loss. If it's just a track blown off and the crew is forced to abandon it temporarily, that far different than if the ammunition has cooked off and incinerated everything in the hull.
  8. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    Big agree, IOTL the Irish basically rechristened Britain even when christianity was still dominant in the holy land and north africa.
  9. Romanov Ascendant: What if the Soviet Union survived?

    I'm not sure if it would have been the most likely scenario, but it is definitely a possibility that the NF/Military Government would declare independence in and also retreat to the territories of the former Afrikaner republics. This would give them more historical legitimacy than claiming to...
  10. Looking for a Britishscrew Timeline with princes killing princes...

    Thanx! I think I'd managed to blot most of it out of my head for preservation of my own sanity.
  11. German completely adopts the defensive September 1942

    No I know, but my point was you and crueldwarf aren't actually disagreeing with each other. You are right in that the Germans stole a bunch of stuff (for various reasons but with the same end result that was also desired by them anyway), and Crueldwarf is right that the stuff they stole didn't...
  12. The Forge of Weyland

    Ahh, corruption in high places .. in time of war that's Treason ... in Alt. Hist. POD it's time for a convienient accident (or two) === OR maybe we can just POD a few more aircraft companies going bankrupt during the Great Depression (their assets will be brought up by Vickers (Spitfire) or...
  13. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    Christianity is not a cohesive entity that can exert unified effort in one direction or the other. Efforts to Christianize different places were localized and led by neighboring Christians, not all Christians throughout shared in that effort. I don't see a reason why Germans, for example, would...

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

    Yes, indeed. Curved, they’re curve, my hand drawing improved but not that much, but the other ones are correct. That crown yes.
  15. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    True, but the decission that a tank is worn-out would be made in an repair/maintenance depot, Everything usefull thing, like radios, instruments, guns, etc would be used to keep other tanks running, When you lose an tank on a battlefield, nothing can be salvaged.
  16. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    I love the idea of Weird Al doing the music for The Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made, and it continues a phenomenon that I recently heard pointed out in the Movin' Right Along podcast; that all three of the original Muppet movies had a different songwriter (Paul Williams, Joe Raposo and Jeff...
  17. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    None, at least in the sense of being an 'antagonist' faith that was in direct and constant contact with Christendom. Buddhism might rival Christianity in numbers (or even exceed them) but it is too far away and too focused elsewhere to come into a large scale clash with Christendom. I think...

    MotF 232: On A Pale Horse - Voting Thread

    That was fun, might have to take part in other contests! Took me like 25 hours, but hey it was worth it
  19. In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    Depends what religion overtakes Persia, be it successful dominant Zoroastrianism/similar or Manichaeism or Buddhism. If it's Christianity (which is plausible) than the answer is more difficult.
  20. Atterdag

    In the absence of Islam, which religion becomes the primary competitor to Christianity?

    In Europe I say Paganism. The rise of Islam and the south Mediterranean’s fall to it made Christian kingdoms look to the north, and also contributed to early ideas of force as a mean to spread Christianity. Without it, there’s little incitament for Christianity to push north, so much of...
