  1. The outcome of Night of the Living Dead

    Expect single beds and with some short of handcuff being widespread. Outside of this, Cattle Bolt Pistol like device placed everywhere, a bit like we have fire extinguisher , defibrillator or a triangle light. Romero's Zombie are slow, stupids, and even kids could be easily taught to dodge (or...
  2. France uses chemical weapons in Vietnam and Algeria

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_weapons_in_the_Rif_War Sadly, comitting war crime does not necessarily end up with you losing the war. Agree with the rest of you post that it would a disaster for France to deploy chemical weapon tho. France defeat was also more due to a lack of politcal...
  3. France uses chemical weapons in Vietnam and Algeria

    Check up the background of Operation Vulture. The option was eventually, but it was considered using US Strategic air power on Giap positions around Dien Bien Phy, including optionnal deployement of nuke. In the end was decided against US "help" in the battle. However, if you take in account...
  4. The Four Horsemen: the Nuclear Apocalypse of 1962

    The TL didnt made it explicit for all Western Europe yet, but expect Germany, France and UK to be more or less annihilated. Not familiar with India situation in the early 60’s, but same than China, but it seems their Green Revolution started only in the late 60’s, so I expect them to be in lot...
  5. The Four Horsemen: the Nuclear Apocalypse of 1962

    China was still recovering of the Great Leap Forward at this point. Not sure if the collapse of global trade, and thousand/millions of refugee flooding their northern border would help. Not even counting the amount of fallout in the atmosphere.
  6. WI: CSA-Nazi Germany Alliance

    The argument still stand. If the CSA are on the "conservative" side in term of waiting to contain the territorial expansion ambition of the Axis states, they would tend to naturally stand with the Allies, like Skallagrim said. The main motivation of allies, at least at first, were more...
  7. WI: CSA-Nazi Germany Alliance

    There are too many butterfly over the 60-70 years following the PoD, even assuming everything go as OTL in Europe. What happened to the CSA political and social system in those year? Are they just like OTL US but with segreation on steroids ? Are they a totalitarian state à la Timeline-191 ? Or...
  8. Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnought

    I plan to buy it someday, as I had a great fun on both Rules the Wave and Ultime Generals. However, I was a bit put off buy the cost of the "premium" version you need to preorder to get access to the early alpha: What is the content actually avaliable ?
  9. Dawn of the Dead (2004) 15 years after the outbreak...

    The only “good” explanation I found for Yonker fiasco was that the POV might be an unreliable narrator. Classic “Romero-like” zombie are so slow than just a quick walk should anyone to outpace them. There is no way an organized army unit would be annihilated in open field, without anyone...
  10. No Operation Blau May/June 1942

    It’s after Kursk and the following advance to the Dniepr that it became obvious that allied tanks would probably be able to roll up until Germany. In spring 42, you have a large swat of the industrial parts of Russia occupied, the Moscow defeat could have been a temporary setback for the...
  11. No Operation Blau May/June 1942

    Wouldn't the Soviet Union try to go to the offensive, with eventual catastrophic result à la 2nd battle of Kharhkov/Operation Mars ? Going a bit into NOT-zis territory, but germany might then be in the right position to get a second Brest Litovsk...
  12. Favorite Over The Top Propaganda in History

    Probably not current politics anymore since it's over 20 years old, but this National Front TV spot for the 1999 europeans elections is one of my favorite, especially with the cheap CGI. In a totaly different context, an other one of my personnal favorite.
  13. AH novel in which US and other Allies go to war w/ USSR?

    The Red Gambit series by Colin Gee deals with a soviet attack provoked by Stalin paranoia in summer 45.
  14. 28 Days Later - Death of a Nation

    - It seems that, using major transport axis, New York is at 350km from Boston. A human walk a 5km, and sprint at 10km/h, so you can safely assume that you have between a few days and two week before shit hit the fans in New York. That depend of a lot of parameters, like how is the stamina...
  15. 28 Days Later - Death of a Nation

    The USA have the following advantages compared to Britain - A larger territory - less population density - way more military means, both in terms of armed forces and armed civilians Even without considering nuke, they will have way more time to react. Given the fact than the infected...
  16. 28 Days Later - Death of a Nation

    First, great of managing to “fix” a lot of flaw of the second movie. However, even assuming than the chopper manages to land, northern France in this TL would be militarized to a point that would make the AtlantikWall looking like a beach ressort. This and month of tactical thinking about how...
  17. AHC: Win the First Indochina War

    At which date ? Situation was vastly different on September 45, when you'll be tasked with landing the CEFEO and retake control of the colony by dealing both with the vietminh who just declared independence, the Chinese occupying the north of the country, and the japanese forces that just...
  18. 1940: What if France had continued the war?

    Basically they are adapted from a years old internet TL project, that can be found there: http://1940lafrancecontinue.org/ Later "adapted" in two books, from which the comics version were later adapted.
