  1. Europa Universalis III is out

    I suppose many of you are familiar with paradox' great Europa Universalis series. The third installment of the series is now available in stores in America or for download from paradox' online shop. If you guys want to see what the game is like, you can read my first AAR (After action report)...

  2. No "West Berlin"

    What if there was no western-allies occupation zones of Berlin? It was a strange concept to begin with, to have these enclaves in the occupied capital. Assuming the USSR has full control of its occupation zone in Germany after the second world war, including all of Berlin, how much would...

  3. Alternate Unconditional Surrender

    "Peace can come to the world only by the total elimination of German and Japanese military power . . . which means unconditional surrender." The famous words of Roosevelt at Casablanca. By his own admission, the conference in which he announced this had not been prepared, and it was almost a...

  4. EU manages to prevent 2nd Iraq war?

    I realize this is a little fresh of an event for most to take an unbiaised approach to possible AH, but for the hell of it, I was wondering; how much pressure would the anti-war camp need to exert to prevent the USA from attacking Iraq altogether? Lets remember the vast majority of the...

  5. Bartholomey Diaz's expedition sunk

    Diaz's expedition found the Cape of Good Hope, the road around Africa to the Indies, in 1488. The event marked largely the first great leap in the era of colonialism and European domination of the world. Portugal grew from a tiny coastal nation to a great power overnight. This success is...

  6. Adolf Hitler: 1889-1944. AH, or just history?

    Obviously of the history we record and believe, mistakes have been made. Half truths have been commonly accepted here and there. I remember someone proposing once as a POD; what if Hitler had died in July 1944, during the Bomb plot? Well, I've read a rather impressively convincing book titled...

  7. Partial soviet collapse/Perestroika successful.

    I'm interested to picture a world where the USSR loses superpower status but doesnt collapse so completely as to break what traditionally was Russia. So lets say that a slightly earlier (late 70s?) and more successful perestroika brings increased prosperity in Russia itself and the adjacant...

  8. Japan and China as colonies.

    In OTL, Japan and China are probably the only significant countries that managed to avoid being at any point totally owned by foreign powers. Though China was largely economically partitioned in the 19th century, it managed to keep its regional autonomy, unlike, say, India. Japan simply...

  9. Would this work? 1917: Early peace on the eastern front.

    I'm thinking of a timeline here, and I'd like to know how plausible it's premises would sound. Here are my initial ideas. Germans strategists saw that Lenin's return to Russia and the Red revolution gave them an excellent shot at a very favorable peace in OTL. They were right, but they made...

  10. Sealand's invasion repelled with blood.

    To break away with the tradition of earth-shattering PODs, lets have a POD about the world's most insignificant legally recognized entity. http://www.seanhastings.com/havenco/sealand/history.html or http://www.sealandgov.com/ for info. WI after the brief takeover of Sealand, the dutch...

  11. WI an ultimatum in June 41?

    There wass a strong case to be made in favor of launching Barbarossa as a surprise operation for Germany in 1941. The soviets lost all their planes on the ground, the soviet high command was almost paralysed for a week, a week during which the bulk of the red army was trapped and torn apart on...

  12. Skull and Bones POD

    The Order of the Skull and Bones is probably the most powerful WASP structure in America, and in fact, the most influential whatsoever to have ever existed on this side of the Atlantic. Their highly selective membership currently includes President GWB (and his father before him), 5 members of...
