  1. Stuka's used on precision strikes on London during the Blitz?

    What about during the day, I know they would be mauled by the RAF
  2. Malaya What If

    Mike, Maybe the second Capt as a Ops Officer, and a SSgt as acting Troop OC. I know this was my Squadron set up when I was attached to the Pionners in 2006.
  3. A Better Rifle at Halloween

    Great update, would assembly line process help in the production of the gearing? Or is this being done already?
  4. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    It would be like playing the UK on Hearts of Iron 4 where every country is on the random focus tree, but your playing it like every country is on historical. You build the perfect force to fight the Axis and Japan. But then suddenly you’re fighting against a communist France and USA. You didn’t...
  5. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    Or another take on it could be a ASB story where in a world where the USSR in 1938 invades Afghanistan and India. There is a bloody war involving the British Empire and the Soviet Union. Professor X goes back in time and dimensions to our world with history books warning of the war. The UK does...
  6. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    It would be like say in a different world there was a surprise German-Turkish Alliance where Turkey was promised Cyprus in exchange to enter the war in early 1941. Turkey and some German troops seize Cyprus, build it up and use it as base for Aircraft to effect the war in Middle East. In 2023...
  7. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    So let’s say there is enough Infanty Divisions diverted to Malaya to carry out Operation Matador, tank production from Canada is shipped to Malaya, modern fighters and radar deployed with skilled pilots and operators. A modern alert fleet is deployed to Singapore and Ceylon with a Carrier or...
  8. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    I don’t know, but they weren’t seen as a threat historically over wise the decisions made in 1940/41 would of been different, it is really a counterpoint to what the Commonwealth and Empire should of done with hindsight on this site to what the threat of was seen at the time. My post was about...
  9. What if Singapore and Hong Kong were reinforced and nothing happened

    After enjoying a lot of the current what ifs on Malaya holding against a Japanese attack and pushing them back into the sea, I was wondering what would of happened if during 1940/41 this was seen as a true potential threat by Churchill and the Imperial General Staff and manpower and equipment...
  10. Malaya What If

    Dutch (homeland) Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors I was just wondering, did any of the Dutch Armed Forces who escaped to the UK in 1940 find themselves in the Dutch East Indies? The same with the garrisons in Dutch South America? How much of an impact would it be if they were stationed in the East...
  11. World War I starts in 1924: state of military technology and the military balance of power

    Wouldn’t the Royal Navy just scrap the older Pre-Dreadnoughts and use the crew to man new Dreadnoughts?
  12. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    Lend Lease I was thinking today, I’ve never seen any photographs of the Soviets using western tanks. Do you think that’s on purpose and any were destroyed?
  13. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    Logistics what was the logistic train like for the Japanese in the invasion of Malaya? With all those bridges blown how will it effect it? The standard ammunition carry of light infantry will not last long without regular re-supply.

  17. A Better Rifle at Halloween

    How much of the German 8th Army is defending Konigsberg at the moment the Cossacks arrival? If the Russians invest Konigsberg, will that give them more space to exploit in East Prussia?
  18. A Better Rifle at Halloween

    Update: I have just realised if the French 5th Army holds in place, then the BEF at mons isn't threatened by its right flank and doesn't need to fall back.
  19. A Better Rifle at Halloween

    From Wikipedia on the siege of Namur https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Namur_(1914) "The Germans reversed the tactics used at Liège and waited for the siege train from Liège to bombard the forts, before attacking with infantry. Bombardment made the rear ditches of the forts untenable and...
  20. A Better Rifle at Halloween

    Its amazing when you look at it with Liege holding and the railway lines are smashed, how stuck Germany is when it comes to Logistics, how are they going to supply shells for the heavy artillery for the siege of Namur and how are they going to move the Siege Artillery from Liege as well, they...
