  1. WI Austria-Hungary survives WW1?

    POD: Austria-Hungary remains on the defence through 1918, the Italian Front doesn't break, and the Entente's advance on the Balkans is halted somewhere in Central Serbia thanks to Austro-Hungarian reinforcements and Entente logistical limits. (By this point, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire...
  2. Would Italy still join WW1 in this scenario?

    The Austro-Hungarian Second Army initially isn't deployed against Serbia, it gets sent to East Galicia in accordance to the warplans. As a result, A-H forces in East Galicia manage to halt the Russian advance for the time being. The A-H Fourth Army doesn't get ordered to reinforce the retreating...
  3. Italian Front, 1918: Where should the Austro-Hungarians have concentrated their attack?

  6. Best reform plan for the Austrian Empire?

    Everyone seems to be in agreement that the Austro-Hungarian compromise was a bad deal for long term stability of the country. It gave too much to the Hungarians and nothing to anyone else. What would in your opinion be a good way to structure the Austrian Empire? The 2 most common proposals...
  7. WI: English as command language for Austro-Hungarian Army

    As the title says, what if the Austro-Hungarians adopt English as the command language in their common army? Let's say, it happen somewhere between 1890 and 1900. What are your thoughts? How does it influence the military performance and Austria-Hungary in general?
