  1. Good King George - A Republican Britain and a Monarchist America

    UC might have also been embroiled in the Vietnam War or an equivalent. OTL troop numbers peaked in the mid-late 60s when this civil war is kicking off.
  2. Munich Shuffle: 1938-1942

    Maybe East and West Poland instead of Germany, with Stalin returning the territory taken in 39 to bulk up his new puppet state.
  3. For All Mankind (AH Tv series at Apple TV)

    I'm curious what will happen to the Baldwins going forward. Assuming Karen saves Helios from outright bankruptcy and is able to thread the needle of the board's demands for revenue and her, Ed and Dev's desire to keep pushing the envelope in space, post timeskip we could see a burgeoning...
  4. Naval TL suggestions and discussion

    In 1909-1911 if the Dominions were convinced to help fund a fast battleship program as flagships for their fleet units and the UK builds more QEs instead of the Revenges units just how many could be built, if they replace the OTL ships on a 1-1 basis we get 15 but that seems very optimistic. And...
  5. Red Spies in the White House: An Alternate Cold War

    I wonder if, despite the backlash, some of White's policies will popular enough to be retained, like Hitler's animal welfare laws
  6. Munich Shuffle: 1938-1942

    I don't think so, OTL the paratroopers got all the glory and credit for the victory and it was still a horrific bloodbath for them. ITTL they've been nearly annihilated but it's everyone's fault except theirs and Goering and Student will be lobbying incessantly for a chance to prove it. Which...
  7. Fleet Speed (Royal Navy before ww1)

    No it's not, the Royal Navy was testing small tube boilers in the early 1900s in destroyers and they would be installed on HMS Courageous and Hood. Considering how much new technology was going into the QEs (including one proposal for diesel propulsion) and how much Fisher was pushing for higher...
  8. Pop Culture DBWI: American Star Trek, British Doctor Who

    The combat in American Star Trek would probably be very different. The treatment of the protagonist ships as a ship of the line or a battleship and the threat coming from the sci fi equivalent of a submarine seems to me to be a product of British history with the Battle of the Atlantic and the...
  9. A European Christian monarchy claiming descent from the prophet Muhammad

    Because sometimes the fun of althistorical irony is it's own reward.
  10. Tube Alloys - Best Case Scenario

    For delivery, assuming the British are going all in on the bomb and the engineers can tell the RAF roughly how big the bomb is going to be, I don't think it's out of the question for them to pursue a large, high altitude bomber designed specifically to deliver the A-Bomb before Tube Alloys...
  11. TL: The UK Overseas Regions

    A PoD for Hong Kong could be if it's integrated into the UK fully, the British government could seek to also integrate the New Territories as well either by coming to an agreement with the Chinese government or unilaterally while China isn't in a position to challenge it and is still firmly in...
  12. It's A Long Way To Nagasaki: The Anglo-Japanese War

    In the same vein Canada and Australia are due for elections in 1940, these elections did take place in OTL. Given the Canadian militia performance and the proximity of the war to Australia that should have some big butterflies.
  13. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    Who knows maybe China will try to invade Vietnam and US troops will go in to fight for Vietnamese freedom after all.
  14. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    It'll be interesting to see what that does to the dissolution of the Empire and the Royal Navy. Without the standing army in Germany and, potentially, a lessened threat from the Soviets, more money and men will be available for the fleet and colonial adventures. Which reminds me that the Suez...
  15. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    OTL Germany has a pretty pacifistic streak that probably exists here and they might just use their enforced neutrality ITTL to dismantle their military and save the money. From that I don't think it's to much of a leap for them to decide NATO isn't for them even if the Warsaw pact collapses TTL...
  16. Confederate Flag On The Moon

    If NASA goes for more large scale operations, ala For All Mankind, on the moon and deploys multiple LRVs it could take a page from the army's book and name the vehicles after civil war generals/army tanks. So there'd be a Grant, Sherman and eventually a Lee that someone decides, as a gag, to...
  17. Patton in Korea/MacArthur in the White House

    I wonder how Mac's Africa policy will guide him in the upcoming Suez crisis, assuming it hasn't been butterflied away. Edit: Mac not Ike, that's what I get for posting at 3AM.
  18. The Revenge of the Crown : An Alternate 1812 and Beyond.

    I wonder if down the line American liberals will write off the revolution as a great waste of time and missed opportunity considering the diverging paths of the US and UK.
  19. The Revenge of the Crown : An Alternate 1812 and Beyond.

    Did Congress pass the amendment to thunderous applause?
  20. It's A Long Way To Nagasaki: The Anglo-Japanese War

    There's a custom model I saw on a forum years ago that I unfortunately can't find now, it was a Churchill tank that had a 25 pounder for the main gun. Something like that could definitely come out of this eastern war. The 6pdr was a good anti-tank gun but I think the heavy HE round of a 25 will...
