  1. Moonlight in a Jar: An Al-Andalus Timeline

    What's the link to the wiki?
  2. How early could a horse-bus public transport system be successful?

    A few things to consider spring to mind... How much potential travel beyond easy walking distance is there? A cart that takes people all the way across Paris, Rome, Constantinople, or Beijing won't get much use if people mostly live/work/shop/etc. within walking distance on a regular basis...
  3. Abbasid caliph Al-Mutawakkil isn't murdered?

    That would be an unique Butterfly, if Fatimids sail west to Al-Andalus and North to Naples
  4. Gideon's Folly: What happens when the USS Monitor never shows up for the Battle of Hampton Roads?

    Well, in the first place, there was *already* an ironclad race underway between CSA and USA! In the second place, however, given the vast, vast, vast superiority of the North in all the related industrial fields (iron foundries, shipbuilding, artillery fabrication), it would not be much of a...

    A Shift in Priorities - Sequel

    Could the Ukraine develop nukes? I wonder if there will be a Donbas conflict ittl.
  6. The Forge of Weyland

    Probably for the Char 2C, since that thing had a 90mm gun that could probably core a King Tiger if it hit the right place frontally.
  7. Alternate Wars of the Roses, in which a Lancastrian still reigns on the throne?
    Threadmarks: Revised narrative for the Bedford Lancastrians and the alternate Wars of the Roses (or rather a larger conflict occurring in the same time period): final part

    HOUSE OF PLANTAGENET by 1495 -John II and Anne of York, King and Queen of England & France, Lord of Ireland -John, Prince of Wales -Princess Isabel of England (formerly Isabel of Bedford) -Edmund, Duke of Bedford (later Edmund I) -Princess Mary of England (formerly Mary of Bedford)...
  8. Abbasid caliph Al-Mutawakkil isn't murdered?

    The Abbasid will definitely remain in Samarra. Al-Mutawakkil was the most important foe of the entrenched corruption within Baghdad that had accumulated in the city due to reliance on Mu'tazila and different kinds of scholars who had monopolized control of the government for the past 20-30 years...
  9. America Be Watching With The Popcorn: A Sino-Soviet War TL

    The navy's budget stays the same, except the recipients were changed. New missile submarines are being developed while destroyers and other conventional ships are being cut.
  10. Japan surrenders after Battle of the Philippine Sea

    1. Agreed, which may result in a ww 3 between US/USSR 2. Huge butterflies there a Nationalist China and a united Korea and no Vietnam War. 3. Probably not, I can't see how it could effect it.
  11. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    Basically, human drama without the drama.
  12. As Dreamers Do: American Magic Redux

    I personally think you could switch filming of the soap opera (Lime Street) if I remember correctly from London to New York City, which would be easier to reach from Smith's part of Maine by car, which would avoid the plane crash.
  13. Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Excellent update as always. Seems like the Ottomans are in for an uncomfortable few years, though. Their military got smashed, they've lost territory, and they likely owe the British a decent sum of money that London will insist gets paid in full and on time. I want to say OTL Crimean War was...
  14. How important was the Dunkirk evacuation ?

    Since nether really exist in numbers in fighting condition at the time does it matter, we are just talking manpower and industrial resources to prepare and equip them the RN/RAF will have to buy the time so 10 days or 50 days is not very relevant when we are talking 6 months+?
  15. Euphemios

    WI Claudius invades and conquers Germania instead of Briton

    Huh. I always thought the incursion into Britain was a waste of resources in comparison to pacifying the frontier. What warpath would have been the best for Rome to choose, if not either of these two?
  16. AHCC: Chinese horse nomads

    I assume that the invasion of the Russian principalities, much less the invasion of the even more easterly Volga states, would be covered in separate articles, in the same way that the Mongol invasion of Rus' is itself only briefly mentioned in Wikipedia's Mongol Invasion of Europe article and...
  17. Rockefeller 1960 -- consequences?

    Personally, I can imagine it mirroring the 1976 map a lot:
  18. General Omar Bradley

    Photos of the Kaiserreich

    One of the most infamous photos of the Fifth Zhilli-Fengtian War and of the Pacific Theatre of the Second Weltkrieg, showing Japanese soldiers of the 4th Infantry Division marching in triumph in the streets of a captured village near Beijing, January 1942. The drive towards the heart and...
  19. Rockefeller 1960 -- consequences?

    I think this sounds right -- lot of ideological overlaps with JFK. Other good questions: how much does Rocky lose in the Upper South vis-a-vis Nixon? How much does he gain in the Midwest/Northeast?
  20. Earl Marshal

    Pride Goes Before a Fall: A Revolutionary Greece Timeline

    Bulgaria will definitely get its independence, just not right now. Interesting, I wasn't aware of this. In that case, a union between the two Principalities is probably going to be happening very soon then. I was originally going to have one of the native Princes assume the role of the King...
