A discussion about an idea I had for a TL, oddly enough.
I recently watched a documentry about the leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising (Padraig Pearse, James Connolly, Joseph Plunkett etc) and decided that it's about time I did an alternate history for the Easter Rising.
I've decided that instead of restricting myself to the usual Irish patriots and all-round AHers who contribute to my threads, I'll try and let some of the Great War enthusiasts in as well, hence I'm doing it about the
German Irish Brigade*, a military unit that could have been but wasn't because the Germans were too busy fighting a two front war to care about Ireland.
Anyway, can it get off the drawing board (my guess is "no" followed by various reasons why

) and how will it do when is?
*I know I did a thread about Irish Brigades not too long ago, but this is a specific one and post-1900 so it's going in this section.
