  1. Bright from Netflix

    I honestly enjoyed it. On a side note there definitely seems to be more races - I saw centaur cops at least twice and there's a mention of an army of 8 races fighting the Dark One - with the Orcs on his side.
  2. WI R class same speed as QE's

    A long long long time ago when I was first getting started on this board I typed this up as a hypothetical idea of how to get more QE's in the RN both during and after WW1... Seems relevant. :p
  3. Chamberlain's Dream - From British Empire to Imperial Commonwealth

    Thanks for doing the other fleets breakdowns!
  4. Chamberlain's Dream - From British Empire to Imperial Commonwealth

    Excellent timeline and the breakdown of the RN was helpful! Are all the other nations militaries still at their OTL levels, or has the increased number of Royal Navy battleships and Carriers led to an increase in their navies as well?
  5. If Jackson Had Survived?

    I have to say I've walked the ground at Gettysburg, from one side of the battlefield to the other. Given the terrain, weapons technology of the time and forces involved... Pickett's Charge was doomed from the moment it threw itself forward into the face of the Union fire. There is simply no way...
  6. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    After a hellish week... This has turned it into a GREAT week! I might have to cancel my date tomorrow so I have time to re-read the whole thread so I'm back up to date!
  7. Roman grain dole reforms

    I once asked my Classical Studies teacher this question. Why they didn't relocate some of the poor of Rome to the provinces... I mean it would be tough, as they werent farmers... But with patience and effort it could have secured a number of frontiers and reduced the drain on the public purse.
  8. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    Like most I check the thread every day to see if it's been updated, so I'd not be too worried.
  9. An Age of Miracles Continues: The Empire of Rhomania

    Hmmmm if the Romans are starting to go to "active" war with the Ottomans, what about sending some ships to raid the coast of the Persian Gulf? Do the Ottomans have any fleet that can match the Romans Eastern ships?
  10. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Hmmm could the Romans offer Hassan Mecca? They don't need to ship every Muslim over the red sea, just him, his army/followers and a good chunk... Giving him the holy city might sell it to his followers, as yes their losing their homeland, but gaining the most holy city in Islam. The ones that...
  11. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Been reading this timeline for a fair while, absolutely love it. Just wondering if the Romans might offer to move the muslim population or at least a good chunk of it? Either to Libya or Arabia? They've already reduced Cairo's population to refugees afterall, and the Roman Empire has a long...
  12. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    One big issue that Austria-Hungary faced was that it's officer corp tended to be at least bi-lingual. Often with a tertiary language. So Hungarian, Austrian and basic Polish, or any various configuration. When the officer corp was decimated in the early stages of the war, they never replaced...
  13. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Not sure if they actually fought on the muslims side, but the book definatly mentioned them supplying them with arms and equipment. Think just before the muslim invasion the Emperor had done one of those "convert or die" declerations. So you can understand a level of hatred. On top of that...
  14. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    I cant find the book but I'm pretty sure that in a history of the campaign in syria that led up to the battle of Yarmuk, the one that lost the Romans syria in the first place, that I read, several jewish tribes sided with the muslim invaders. Okay thats now almost 900 years ago in this timeline...
  15. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Could the Byzantines offer to help move the muslim population of Eygpt (or even just the most troublesome) to the Arabian coast to resettle Mecca?
  16. Von-Lettow

    Damn... So nobody has a link or something? I keep trying to run searches but nothing works...
  17. Von-Lettow

    Years ago I read a really good timeline where Von-Lettow became Chancellor of Germany between WW1-WW2 and led the country to greatness. Does anyone have a link for it? Ive lost mine!
  18. Slightly different RN at Jutland

    I've always been a huge fan of the QE class Fast Battleships. Now in our Jutland the RN had 4 of these magnificent ships, who rushed to the aid of the Beaty's Battlecruiers who were taking a pounding from the German Battlecruisers. And they managed to drive them off as i recall. Now heres a...
  19. Day After Tomorrow in your Region

    I'm dead. If I don't get flooded - live within a few miles from the Firth of Forth in Scotland, I'll freeze or starve to death in short order... Suck's to live in Scotland in that scenario!
  20. "All Mexico"

    Lets say that the concept of Manifest Destiny had been stronger in 1848, and the idea of "All Mexico" is corresondingly stronger. So in 1848, instead of taking half of mexico's territory the United States move to annex all of Mexico, carving up new territories from the former state. What effect...
