  1. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    I've heard good things about those. I will admit to being a bit of an Nvidia fanboy. But yeah Ryzen builds I've heard are pretty decent and good Bang for the Buck :D
  2. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    Yeah. it gets the Job Done as it were. Next year (hopefully) I'm doing a from the Ground Up build. If i was a man of means I'd love me a 1080ti but...ah well. The card I have suits my needs for the moment, not like im doing VR or AAA tiles at 60fps or anything too crazy. :)
  3. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    I mean for the longest time my computer was pretty potato, 4GB RAM and like Nvidia 610 (gross), and (still) an i5 Sandy Bridge, 2nd gen (yuck) and the worst I ever dealt with was lengthy loading times. But i upped myself from 4 to 16GB (DDR3) (2x8GB) and it was zoom zoom. So, depending on the...
  4. The Man in the High Castle on Amazon Prime

    Woooo Season 3 soon. I am Excite. I thought it was slated for a December release
  5. Does Japan Have Any Chance Of Winning In WW2?

    Calbear put it Rightly. The moment the first bombs and torpedos fell at Pearl, Japan Lost.
  6. A New Era: A History of the Dukakis Administration

    "I: That’s all the time we have. This is 89.9’s commemoration of the 20th anniversary of Michael Dukakis’ assassination. " AYE CARUMBA!! Subscribed.
  7. WI: Larssen isn't killed by Rance Auerbach in Turtledove's Worldwar

    The Lizards find out where the USA is producing and developing their atomic weapons. So, the US at least is initially at a disadvantage and probably more so in terms of eventual bargaining conditions at the Cairo Conference presuming it still takes place. Maybe they lose more land i.e Arizona...
  8. Hearts of Iron IV Thread

    Definitly want to get this game. Maybe the Steam sale Gods will smile and they will give us a discount at some point--unlikely since it was literally just released but-- 45 bucks might not seem like a lot for some but judging from the less than glowing impressions it seems waiting will not hurt
  9. Europa Universalis IV - 13 August 2013

    I did my CK2 Conversion. Pics are pretty big but two Funny happenstances: 1) Scottish Iberia. 2) Norwegian Germany oh and if you saw in the CK2 Thread...Venetian Sunni Muslim Byzantium:eek::confused: Do I win a Prize? :D
  10. Stephen King's AH 11/22/63 coming to Hulu with Franco.

    For me the series was good. Not great or excellent but it portrayed the essence of the books decently enough. if I had one Complaint is that some aspect were kind of ham-fisted and I feel--again just my opinion--if they had slowed down or maybe decided on making it a 2-series mini-series but I...
  11. Europa Universalis IV - 13 August 2013

    FWIW I've seens mods that do Away with Corruption. Also, in CK2 I had a Wendish Empire that I converted to EUIV. Some Interesting results. "Norwegian Germany" for one. Ill post some pics later :D
  12. Rumsfeldia: Fear and Loathing in the Decade of Tears

    I haven't read it myself---I really should--but theres a "write it when I'm Gone" book Ford put out where he in essense says the Iraq War ws/is the greatest Foreign Policy mistake in 30 years:cool::eek: Also, as crazy as it is, I still very much enjoy/ed this TL. I'm weird like that :)
  13. America Stands Together: A TL-191 Tale

    Innnnteresting. I like that it gives him more dimension then just "N-words N-words damn N-words!" *However* Aside from perhaps "Liberating" Mexico what else could concievable be done?
  14. Fallout: The Hot War (by Harry Turtledove)

    You can take my word for it, the only real reason to read this book, or even continue on is for the utter and complete, laugh-out-loud and absurdly badly written, poorly-researched badness of it. Protip: B-29's didnt take off from Korea but from Japan :eek::rolleyes: Yes TU-4's were copies of...
  15. Joe Steele: What next?

    I wonder, though, how much actual popular support J.Edgar would actually have. In fact, as we were going on about convergence perhaps Ike could lead the resurgence of Democracy--though ITTL he does have the taint of association as part of Steele's show-trial circuses which might disqualify him...
  16. Which Democrat would have done best against Bush in 2004?

    Mm. Good one. Anyone ever done a Wellstone Lives TL? :cool:
  17. Brother Faisal: Islamic World ATL

    Good so Far. Interesting. Also curios as to what role Q/G/addafi (:rolleyes:) will or won't play. I suspect he won't be too pleased at having someone else attempt a means of corraling ME nations into a unifed leadership. Maybe he will try to counter by courting more of the other African nations...
  18. Could Germany have been broken up after WWI/WWII?

    FDR and Morganthau has early plans and ideas for seperating Germany into several smaller states. I think it proved unworkable because the reality was they needed a united Western Germany vs the zone the Soviets controlled
  19. TL-191 Fridge Logic thread:

    I can't remember if this has been covered but its something that has been buzzing and bugging me in my head the past few days. Even in OTL the Civil War the Union has, what?, 10-15x the Industry and by most of my sources the CSA has around 20% of comparable manpower. So we're to believe in HFR...
  20. What if Abe Lincoln had lived?

    Interesting indeed, thanks. I suspect as noted above, I believe Lincoln might not wish to continue the mental ad or/physical burden of the Presidency. Chase's political career was, I believe, basically D.O.A and I doubt he would attempt a trade of careers with a lack of support for his...
