  1. Deadliest Warrior

    Has anyone else seen The Deadliest Warrior on Spike? It's an AH fanboy's wet dream! The premise is that they take two warriors from different periods, run some performance tests on their weapons and equipment, and use a statistical analysis to determine who would win the fight. And, as a...
  2. DBWI: Achilles Goes to War

    So I was just watching Troy, and was wondering what the siege of Troy would have been like if Achilles had been convinced to go with the Greeks. I kniw he's a minor character, and yes, the film is not the best adaptation of The Hektoriad [OOC: I know that isn't right, but i couldn't find the...
  3. Help finding a website

    So a while ago I read this pretty longish timeline with a POD where there were no humans in North America. Thus, the Viking settlement in Vinland survived, leading to colonization of North America in the 1200's. Other things I remember are a Venetian merchant monopolizing the spice trade in...
  4. Herald for Hire

    I've just been playing with heraldry, and thought I'd offer my services if anyone wants an image of a coat of arms made, I'd be more than happy to give it a whirl. Here's one I just made for the USA:
  5. Genesis 3:6

    "And when the man saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, he took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto his wife with him; and she did eat."
  6. Latveria Challenge

    Latveria is an interesting thought experiment in the Marvel universe. A small, geographically isolated country in the Balkans with technology superior enough to make it a world super power. From what I read, there are no more than 1 million people living in Latveria, but it seems that Dr...
  7. Southern Intellectual Challenge

    What POD (not prior to the end of the Revolution) could give rise to the southern US being thought of as a region of sophisticated intellectuals rather than rednecked hicks in 2005? Bonus points if you can make the northeast have some sort of derogatory stereotype like what the south has today...
  8. American Heraldry

    So I've been a bit of an enthusiast for heraldry and coats of arms for some time now. What I'm asking here is how can we get heraldry in the US to be as common and significant as it is in Europe? Cities, states, government agencies, universities and corporations all use seals and symbols which...
  9. AH Challenge - How Franco Won the War

    Here's the challenge: with a POD no later than September 1, 1939, find a way for Francisco Franco to be heralded as the hero that won WW2. Either for the Allies or the Axis. Heck, why not do both?
  10. Some Roman PODs

    Hey all, I'm new to the boards, and thought I'd post a couple of POD possibilities. I'm watching I, Claudius on DVD, and this is what I'm thinking: 1) Livia was obsessed with there being an imperial successor descended from her. That's why she knocked off everyone between Augustus and...
