  1. AHC/WI: Byzantines fall and Sassanids survive.

    I'll leave the exact PoD to you, but after the rise of Islam have a situation where the Sassanids hang on in Iran but have Constantinople and large swathes of the Balkans fall to Muslim control. Does Islam manage to push deep into Europe, do the Turks adopt Zoroastrianism or Buddhism?

  2. "Modernized" native Taiwan

    What changes would be needed for Taiwan to remain independent like Japan and be a modern power. The dominant ethnic groups must be Austronesian in origin. Immigration is acceptable, but the Taiwanese for the most part cannot identify as Chinese, even allowing for Chinese cultural influence...

  3. Theophilos Lives!

    What could be the possible results of Theophilos not catching dysentery on his Anatolian campaign against the Abbasid Caliphate's invasion force. He wasn't even 30 when he died, so let's say he lives to be at least 50 (His father lived until the age of 59). What could happen then? This would...

  4. AHC: Haiti being the driving force behind a French Carribean Empire

    Inspired by this post: So, with a POD at the start of the French revolution, have Haiti provide the troops and be the driving force behind the creation of a French Empire consisting of at least 70 % of the Carribean.

  5. Better Italian Performance WWI

    Italy has had a poor military reputation since unification. Often warranted, often not, Italy has often faced many challenges in her wars. There's no doubt that the average Italian soldier was brave, bravery is practically a requirement if you're going to attack the same place ten times. But...

  6. Unsuccessful 3rd Battle of Kharkov

    Given the lopside nature of the losses in this battle, it might not be the easiest battle to turn against the Nazis, but let's assume that it does. Perhaps someone less capable than Manstein takes command and maybe that's enough. So, the Nazis find their attack blunted. What is the next move...

  7. AH Challenge: Pennsylvania with what is now Eastern Ohio

    Browsing the Erie Triangle thread, I was struck by an admittedly unlikely idea, one which I'm glad didn't happen;). With a POD after 1781, barring a collapse of the US, have what is now the Eastern part of Ohio, preferably from about Cleveland eastwards, although I leave the ultimate boundary...

  8. Bronze/Early Iron Age Timelines

    Does anybody have any recommendations for good timelines covering those periods?

  9. Ottoman Military Question

    I was playing DarthMod for Empire Total War, and came across a unit description talking about how European armies of the time (1700s) tended to gather regiments together under certain generals, but didn't have any formal formations higher than that. But it mentioned that the Ottomans and the...

  10. Alternate WW1 Ideas

    So I'm kind of enamored with alternate beginnings to the Great War. But I'm challenged to find an alternate alliance that is both plausible and relatively equal. I'd pull one out of thin air and try to justify it, but that's not the right approach IMO. I'd prefer to find a PoD that I think would...

  11. AHC: Majapahit survives to the present

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majapahit I figured we don't have enough Far East scenarios, so I ask the following: With a POD after 1350, create a state centered around, and descended from the Majapahit empire. It does not have to cover all of the territory of modern Indonesia, and it doesn't...
