  1. Plausibility Check: Earlier Yugoslav Wars resulting in WW3

    Hi all, I've been rolling around an idea for a mid-80's Cold War gone hot timeline with the POD being an earlier collapse of Yugoslavia into civil war. In essence, a terrorist event at the Sarajevo Olympics results in an earlier breakaway of Croatia and Slovenia and a crackdown by the...
  2. DBWI - What if the Chernobyl Steam Explosion was averted?

    Hi everyone, I know technically today is only the anniversary of the explosion of Reactor 4 at Chernobyl itself and that the steam explosion did not occur for another 2 days, but I was wondering, what do you all think would have been the consequences had it not occurred? For those who don't...
  3. What company could replace Lockheed as America’s secret aircraft manufacturer?

    Given a POD in the 1930’s, are there any other US aircraft manufacturers that could fill Lockheed’s role in the development of things like America’s first jet fighter, the secret spy planes of the Cold War, or pioneering stealth aircraft? Northrop seems like an obvious answer, but the flying...
  4. Nazi v US Cold War: Larger strategic focus towards a conventional WW3?

    Hi all, For the last year or so, I’ve been worldbuilding and planning to write a series of vignettes and a larger (novel-sized) book set in an alternate 1980’s in the midst of a Cold War between the US and Nazi Germany. Look for stories to start coming out in the future set in Der Kalterkrieg...
  5. Plausibility of CATOVL Aircraft

    Hi folks, I’m working through ideas for my US-Nazi Germany Cold War story and I’ve come up to a brick wall on the plausibility of something I’ve been thinking about. Is it possible to build a catapult assisted take-off/vertical landing aircraft? Are there inherent problems with such a design...
  6. Question about Soviet time zones

    I know a lot of you guys are savants when it comes to the Cold War and I'm stumped on finding anything on this: Did the Soviets use Greenwich Mean Time? Specifically did their military use it the same way NATO uses Zulu? If yes, what did they call it? If no, what did they use instead?
  7. Vietnam-era SAW?

    What's the feasibility of the US Army and Marines adopting the Stoner 63 Commando in the role of a SAW or Light MG in the Vietnam-era (specifically mid-60's)? The Commando is way lighter than the M-60 and would give a good base of fire weapon to the infantry fireteam. I'm asking because I've...
  8. Call of Duty: Black Ops Alternate History

    I just noticed this last night. On the level where you go to the Pentagon to meet with Kennedy, when you get to the war room, there's a large map of Europe on the far wall. On that map, it shows a united Germany as a member of NATO and Finland and Estonia as members of NATO...in 1963...
  9. HOI2 AAR Help

    I know that the Paradox Interactive forums might be a better place to ask about this, but mostly what I need is AH information so Ill post those questions here: I want to do an AAR playing as a facist America with Lindbergh as President. I've played this route a few times, but this time I...
