    WI: Atatürk stops drinking?

    The Islands were largely Greek... I guess 75-80%. No way. Turkey does not want Greece to have Cyprus under any condition. The Dodecanese however could be exchanged for Western Thrace. The latter is in the 1940s still largely Turkish and Muslim. The Greeks may be content with getting...
  2. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Can someone remind me if the Combine has actually gotten involved by October 1923, or is it still limited to “liberating” areas in Africa and Nustrana? We know for a fact that it’s gonna fight with the ENA, and it seems like the transition from Ottoman Empire to Eternal State takes place in the...
  3. AHC/WI: Stronger IJN light cruiser line

    Less than you might think. The Type 93 was a very useful weapon in the Japanese Decisive Battle plan, but is wasn't the heart of the plan, just an enhancement that allowed engagement with a somewhat greater chance of success. The preceding IJN Type 90 61cm, while lacking the blazing speed and...

    What if communism didn’t exist

    It was dying out in Russia at that time (only to be sorta-reinstated with the kolhoz system, until that too was disbanded), and the Ottomans were past that point too. The Janissaries had been wiped out, and all their territories outside of Turkey were based more around the Arabic clan system...
  5. The Forge of Weyland

    I think the problem was no-one wanted ton actually destroy the town and harbour facilities. 15" bricks tend to do that
  6. WI: Italian Peninsula divided between Rome and some other power

    What if Rome never expanded into the entire Italian Peninsula? Instead a balance of power develops with Rome well... north of Rome and the area south of it controlled by some Oscan power. Assume that Carthage either does not exist or is not qn issue
  7. WI Spain does nothing to assist American independence

    From 1775-1778 when the RN had no major power navy to fight they couldn't lock things down. The Americans ran the blockade, sent out swarms of privateers, and the Continental Navy raided British Islands, and shipping. In fact the CN largely became ineffective after 1778, largely from neglect...

    What if communism didn’t exist

    I am talking about Russia and some other places in Ottoman Balkans.
  9. WI: decisive Spanish victory in the Dutch Revolt

    Phillip may try to take Lorraine then Genoa to link former Lotharingia contiguously. France is then the next likely target starting with Occitania, then perhaps England. He probably doean't have the resources to do it himself but he could put himself in a position to restore the European...

    Crimson Banners Fly: The Rise of the American Left
    Threadmarks: Part 7: Chapter XXV - Page 167

    Destruction in Chicago, July 1918 - Source: Wiki Commons "Theodore Roosevelt, fueled by rage and adrenaline, stormed through the White House doors and re-entered the gates of bureaucratic hell. His own trusted friends and allies had not the ability to soak in the knowledge and wisdom the...
  11. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    I think I finally understand why the Societists Ottomans will use the name Eternal State when they take power. Really powerful wording in this chapter for how the Ottoman Empire sees and does things. I’m also gonna call it and say that the air attacks at Salamis are TTLs version of the...
  12. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    The night attack on the Italian cruisers at Cape Matapan might be a good metaphor. Actually the entire battle of Cape Matapn might be the metaphor.
  13. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    A Toronto location would probably affect the infant Canada's Wonderland in Vaughn in someway. Perhaps positively (staff of it start stepping it up) or negative (everyone goes to DT instead of there)
  14. Map Thread XX

    Needs more fjords. Chuck some Norway in there.
  15. How could the Germans have defended the pointe du hoc better

    That was one of approximately twelve cannon batteries un range of UTAH Beach. Several others were eliminated by the airborne, others by Naval gunfire when they were located by the NGF spotting teams. The remainder were forced to retreat. One of the handicaps of the defending artillery on...
  16. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    Italy will be crushed, Good POD would be something happening during the Second Italo-Ethiopian War.

    Alternate Ideologies

    Possibly, and I did rush to get the initial draft completed just so I could focus on the progeny. I know I repeated myself on certain things, so I'll have to go back and revise this into a finished format once this is done. It will definitely get polishing up, maybe even a Mk.2, and a final...
  18. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    This generation can not stay without a match between Portugal and Spain. At least one between Charles and John NEED to marry the other’s sister.
  19. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    @El Pip has made a TL about such a scenario.
