Tales from the Technoyurt

This is the place for AH.com poster Geekhis Khan to post all of his shameless self promotion convenient links to his popular, award-winning, and damned sexy timelines, since they won't all fit into the character-limited signature the cheap bas frugal and tidy fellows at AH.com have allowed.


The Timelines and Stories of Geekhis Khan

  • Viva Balbo : An alternate Duce, an alternate Italy - Italo Balbo, Aviator, Germanophobe, and closet Republican becomes “Duce” of Italy. Winner of the 2010 Turtledove award for Best New Timeline, Early 20th Century and nominee for the Superlative Best Timeline, 2010 Turtledove. Winner of the 2011 Turtledove award for Best Continuing World War II timeline.
  • Operation Teufelseelöwe - a Truly ASB Sea Mammal! - GK's first *ahem* timeline where, as is the honor of the n00b, GK posits his own warped and comic spin on a much-beloved Nazi sea mammal. By some sick fluke or act of wanton cruelty this TL actually won the 2010 Turtledove ward for Best New Magical/ASB Timeline. Seriously, WTF?!?
  • Law & Order: Race Affairs Unit - aka “Lizards & Order”. A Law & Order “spinoff” set in Harry Turtledove's Worldwar TL ! Nominated for the 2011 Turtledove for Best Continuing Fanfic *Emphatic Cough*
  • Hero's Handy Dandy Steam Slave! - A quick and dirty little idea for a Greco-Roman era “as seen on TV” wonder-invention whose advertisement promises more than the product can deliver…a “take that” to the proliferation of ASB Roman Steam Wanks.
  • A Black Sheep among Tigers (and Phoenixes); a story I wrote for Hendryk's Superpower Empire series. Here the Flying Tigers AVG fights in an alternate China during the Sino-Japanese war, including meeting China's Iron Phoenixes…woman-pilots! Nominated for the 2011 Turtledove for Best Continuing Historical Fiction.

Roleplaying Projects

As an experienced GM for a variety of systems, yet who can't find a group nearby, GK turned to the Dork Side and began a PBP RPG:

  • The World of Manana - Enter a world of azure-watered island party paradises filled with clueless tourists sipping daiquiris… while in the shadows intrigue abounds and exotic danger is only a Grumman Goose hop to a pirate town on a lonely cay! Cowboys, pirates, smugglers, shady pilots and boat captains, femme fatales, and modern day warrior-bards blend with clever and industrious natives. Cargo cults clash with drug-runners. Sport Fishermen uncover cursed Aztec gold. And everyone follows the unspoken rule that at sunset conflicts get put on hold and all observe a moment of silence and self-reflection with a Cuban cigar and an overproof Jamaican rum. Some of the roleplays and stories featured in this setting include Everyone Goes to Bogie's - A Parrotpunk RP!, A Grand Business Opportunity and Cocktails on the Street of Bones.

More to come, I'm afraid…
