  1. Dengist USSR

    Wouldn't this be flying the white flag as far as the ideological aspect of Cold War is concerned? If Deng's policies in China was pretty much an admission that Mao's effort to put in place a socialist economic had failed, then a Dengist USSR would pretty much be an admission that the Soviet...

    How early could a horse-bus public transport system be successful?

    I think it could work already during Babylonian times, but they haven't invented money yet, so paying could be tiresome dependin on how much grain you have to carry around. Also working wood was a bit of a problem, first there's no good sources of wood there, you'd have to import the stuff from...

    The Revenge of the Crown : An Alternate 1812 and Beyond.

    Since i do have the habit of incorporating some things which the audience wants in the timeline, i gotta ask. What do you guys think should happen in these states with the current situation ittl in the future? 1. UK and the British Empire. 2. Prussia 3. Danubian Empire 4. Russian Empire 5...
  5. AH Cultural Descriptions

    A boat of the Bantu Ugandan empire (USS means Ugandan Steel Ship). Why Don't You Secede from Your Mom's House?
  6. How could the Roman Republic survive into the present day?

    Now this is were i gotta call BS. The Byzantines were roman, even if their culture began changing they called themselves roman as well the only reason that they are really called Byzantines is to differentiate between the eras of the empire. Most people agree that the byzantine empire is the...
  7. Why did Jimmy Carter fail as President when he had 61 Senators and 292 Representatives when he was elected?

    Everything everyone else has brought up is correct, but also a factor was Carter's early crusade against pork spending. He came in and as part of his reformism, he put together a list of a bunch of projects he didn't like and would veto if they appeared in a bill. Now a lot of members of...
  8. AH Cultural Descriptions

    A remake movie of sorts of the old John Steed and Emma Peel, etc Avengers '60s TV show. The same characters and concepts, updated to 2012, set in an international chess tournament in Edinburgh. The movie was a critical success but financial flop. The USS Yo' Momma
  9. The Revenge of the Crown : An Alternate 1812 and Beyond.

    I gotta say, "United American Union" sounds kind of awkward.
  10. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    I'm not really sure where to start with this. "something which is problematic is a thing which has the qualities of a problem": Getting tanks back to Bardia to get fixed up, hoping that they won't break down on the way, has the qualities of a problem. Therefore problematic. 'Would be a problem'...
  11. Of lost monkeys and broken vehicles

    edit for for most of the board's thinking :-) I was actualy expecting hoping for an accident to happen and good ol' MacArthur to find a tragic demise
  12. The Undying Empire: A Trebizond Timeline

    I don’t know why but I feel like ITTL Albania will do way better here than OTL and will definitely kick the Ottomans ass hard for the next century at least
  13. The Forge of Weyland
    Threadmarks: 22 May 1940

    22nd May 1940 Britain British experts at Bletchley Park manage to break the Luftwaffe Enigma code, aided by the huge volume of encrypted traffic over the last month. Churchill asks the RAF to decide what the minimum number of squadrons are needed to defend Britain, based on the assumption the...
  14. What were the key developments that enabled the Age of Exploration?

    Mind if I ask for elaboration on points 2 and 3?
  15. Place In the Sun: What If Italy Joined the Central Powers?

    Except Britain did lose the war, and Germany very explicitly cut a deal with Britain to let them do whatever they wanted to France. Britain got favorable terms, but they weren't being negotiated with in some equal peace here.
  16. Sir John Valentine Carden survives.

    I knew that there were some units that I had forgot. From what I understood most of the Garries were rolled into the Lord Strathcona Horse. It is a small world.
  17. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Sure thing! How do I invite someone to another convo that's not my own? Not to mention, once we're done with it we're gonna do something with Isis and Osiris.
  18. Film WI: If "Blazing Saddles" had the "original" casting

    I'll also observe that Harvey Korman's reputation for being family-friendly wasn't much damaged by his association with Brooks. He did three seasons of Carol Burnett after Blazing Saddles, and Herbie Goes Bananas with High Anxiety added to his resume after that. Mind you, Korman was arguably...
