  1. WI: Ford had built the Mustang as a wagon?

    Hmm I suppose you do have a point. I can't imagine that, but yeah.
  2. Henry Tudor, Heretic and Father of Kings
    Threadmarks: Epilogue Twenty-Four - Authors Jones

    AN: Still more book covers
  3. And All Nations Shall Gather To It - A Crusades TL

    The Byzantines don't have a reason to do that. There simply cannot be a successful Mongol siege of Constantinople like there was with Baghdad, so they don't feel threatened there. The uneasy alliance between the Crusader states and the Mongols IOTL was spurred by the Crusader States not having...
  4. WI British/Italian war in the 1930s

    Any thoughts on the outcome and after effects of Britain and Italy going to war in the 30s? Especially before Italy has a formal alliance with Germany.
  5. WI: decisive Spanish victory in the Dutch Revolt

    If you put it that way, I can see where you are coming from. That said, I think it might be even more ASB for Philip II to accept protestantism, than for him to quickly beat the Dutch revolt (assuming you don't consider a victory in 20-30 years or so fast, which i think should be possible for...
  6. Explain the AH Quote

    A dialogue exchange as an American agent is tossed out of an airship by a Canadian minor noble and his butler, though he remains in the air thanks to his parachute. The dialogue comes from the graphic novel series Occold War, a pun based on Cold War and occult. A science fantasy alternate...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Most sensational, Inspirational, Celebrational, most Muppetational! indeed- sounds like an amazing show, esp if the old Muppet team had a bit of a reunion. Hope Lew Grade got an invite to the opening! Was Frank Oz involved @Geekhis Khan I like the Disney Towns concept, it allows them to put...
  8. A Day in July: An Early 20th Century Timeline

    Not a fan of this new foreign policy shift, but America has always had a strong messianic streak, so it certainly fits. And supporting Irish nationalists? That‘s gonna put a dent in US-British relations once Britain finds out. Overall it looks as if the new president is making a lot of enemies...
  9. The Sun of Rocroi TL- A better Grand Condé

    Congratulations for this first year. I found this timeline recently, and I liked a lot (though it was too late to vote for the Turtledoves...). Take your time to find inspiration.
  10. A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Leaving Charles to marry Isabella and push another bride on John would have been easier. But Charles will want the crown of Portugal for his youngest sister and John would like securing his borders with a match in Spain and now that can be only him to Catherine
  11. A French New Zealand

    The French unlike the British did not do much self government as far as i know, but i could be wrong.
  12. Alternate Electoral Maps III

    As I’m not the creator of the timeline I’m not sure what Romney does to get such strong numbers with Hispanics. You may be right that Trump’s populism without the anti immigration parts may do well with them. I’ll ask Reagent about this and see what he says. EDIT: Reagent says that Romney...
  13. If the USSR was defeated how would the Pacific War play out?

    There was the idea the Soviet Army of the Caucasus would fight there & then withdraw into Persia & Iraq, supplied by the Brits/US. That was part of the reason for starting the logistics bases at Abadan & in Iraq, and upgrading the Persian & Iraqi railways. Post war the US created War Plan...

    A Queen Twice Over: Mary Tudor the Elder Marries Francis I of France

    Oh I know why, I just have never liked them. Maybe it's because I know what happened eventually, but I'm always keen to explore other matches for John and his siblings if I can manage them.
  15. The Sun of Rocroi TL- A better Grand Condé

    Glad to see that you are out of your depressed mood and (presumably) done with your exams. 😂 h

    WI: US joins the Axis

    Western front: 1. No D-Day, nothing like that. As a matter of fact, Britain itself is fucked because its navy simply can't keep the supply lines from Africa open (and the supply lines from America are gone by default). Eastern front: 1. As it was, there is a debate raging about whether...
  17. How could the Germans have defended the pointe du hoc better

    They had an artillery battery located inland that fired on the beaches. They were taken out by a group of airborne soldiers led by Dick Winters. The mission is still used by the army as a textbook example of an attack on a fixed position.
  18. Driftless

    The Forge of Weyland

    Even the Warspite's secondaries and AA would raise hell in that situation
  19. An 1-engine fast bomber for 1935-45?

    XB-42 runs into the same problem the XF8B does: while fast as hell compared to piston fighters they start flying around the same time as early jet fighters, which outpace them quite handily.
