  1. WW3 in In The Presence of Mine Enemies-Possible Spoilers

    Eight, I think: USA UK France China Russia India Pakistan Israel Then, of course, are the 'possibles' of North Korea, Kazakhstan, etc.

  2. Chemical weapons used in Vietnam

    That is the stupidest, most barbaric thing I have heard on this board. That doesn't even have anything to do with the topic.

  3. AH American States

    Is it just me, or are there no light blue areas?

  4. Napoleon's naval breakthroghs.

    I was under the impression that the Navy was pretty much left alone during the Terror, as ships were so rarely at port, and officers were so few, they were not seen as a threat. And according to a book I read on this subject, the problem lay in the fact that for years before the Revolution...

  5. Zhirinovsky takes over

    He probably wouldn't say that, as Rodina is Russian for motherland. Are the Russian troops in Iraq there to support Saddam?

  6. Alternate ST History:

    I never did understand why none of them seemed to have Borg problems.

  7. Who would you cast in a Turtledove movie

    I think he's too old.

  8. Return Engagement: Settling Accounts Trilogy

    Well, given the ending of Victorious Opposition, widespread gas warfare is a given, and may be interesting if either side develops missiles (I'm reminded of the scenes from the Worldwar series, where the Germans use V2s with nerve gas).

  9. No "Terror" in French Revolution

    Not necessarily. They could have still created the Republic, but not executed him. As I recall, in his trial, the vote on whether or not to execute him was extremely close; many of the delegates thought that the humiliation of losing his throne and being an ordinary citizen would be suitable...

  10. New weapons never fully developed/used

    I know that von Braun was trying to develop a 'V3' which would have been a multi-stage rocket (with a V2 as the last stage) with the capability of putting a staellite in orbit, or hitting NYC.

  11. Zero Wing receives proper translation.

    No Zero Wing?!?!?! We have no chance to survive make our time!

  12. No "Terror" in French Revolution

    I was just thinking about this last night. I can't pin down any specific POD, but if the Convention is able to stand its own against the Commune, then it could maintain order. Perhaps if the societies/clubs don't form; or if the King doesn't attempt to escape or give plans to the Germans...

  13. President Robert F. Kennedy

    The CoDominium isn't formed until 1990, so that's a bit beyond President RFK's time. Although maybe he could begin increasing funds to CalTech's Alderson Drive project...

  14. Victoria

    They had a review of this game in the latest PC Gamer. They said it was fun ocne you mastered it (which took several hours), but it went too fast even on the slowest setting.

  15. Four-way Cold War. Green vs Red vs Black vs Blue

    I don't think a four-way standoff is possible; one group would probably ally with the other, such as Red & Green, Blue & Green, Red & Black, or Black & Blue. Either one of those seems possible.

  16. Iberian Union holds

    If I recall, didn't one of the Spanish kings give Portugul away to his son or son-in-law? I recall reading that, once upon a time...

  17. Carolingian-Byzantine Union?

    Would such a thing have been possible, and if so, how? What would be the repurcussions on Europe, Muslim expansion, Christianity, etc? Hvaing only rudimentary knowledge of this era, I can't really postulate on anything more complex than that.

  18. Washington killed early on

    Probably couldn't have been worse than Washington. More interesting (in my view, at least), is how the political scene would develop in the United States (assuming everything else goes off as OTL) without Washington. Could an anti-Federalist have become the first president, and what sort of...

  19. A different fate for Kirov

    Stalin loved Kirov like a son? :rolleyes: Yeah, right... In any event, this timeline will lead to annexation of all Armenia, and probably the creation of a Soviet client state in Turkey (and Greece too?) This might also let the Germans reinforce their Vichy Syria and the pro-Axis...

  20. A Great War

    Pretty much what happened OTL in WWI. So we'd have Spain, France, Russia vs. US, Britain, Germany (with Austria likely, too). Seems a bit one-sided. This could also lead to an earlier Russo-Japanese conflict, with Japan joining the US-Britain-Germany-Austria axis. Things could get even...
