  1. MacArthur drinks sake in a Japanese prison camp

    I am not a MacArthur fan so I am biased on this one. WI Roosevelt ordered MacArthur to stay with his men on the Phillipines in 1942. MacArthur fights a good fight and then surrenders as Wainwright had to OTL. The Japanese treat him as a semi VIP prisoner while his men die on the Bataan death...
  2. Happy and Glorious.

    Norway Campaign April 9th 1940 and HMS Renown opens fire on the Gneisenau. Scharnhorst is there too and trains its guns on the Renown whose 10 accompanying destroyers are beyond range. OTL Renown was hit twice by 11" shells that failed to explode while Gneisenau was hit 3 times having a...
  3. Comets instead of Shermans.

    WI the Comet tank prototype was ready by November 1943 (instead of Feb '44) and was ready for service by March 1944. The first tanks are equipping the 11th Armoured division by May. By D-Day the British Second army has some Comets (not many yet) and fewer Shermans. How does this affect the...
  4. Replace Rommel.

    Erwin Rommel was one of the most highly rated commanders of World War Two. IMO this was mainly because the British needed to build up a superman figure to excuse their own incompetent failures in North Africa. It appears that the German High Command didn't see Rommel as being all that great...
  5. President Marshall goes to Versailles

    Woodrow Wilson had a stroke in 1919 and was largely incapacitated. His true condition was kept largely secret so his Vice President Marshall never actually succeeded to the Presidency as he should have done. WI Wilson suffers his stroke in late 1918 and is unfit for travel. His absence from...

  7. WI the extent of the French Mutiny in 1917 is known to the CP.

    Significant sections of the French army suffer a collapse in morale after the failure of the Nivelle Offensive in April into May 1917. OTL the French were able to conceal this from the Germans and the British were able to take up the slack for most of he year until the French army recovered...
  8. Death to Ahura Mazda!

    Imagine that Heraclius decides not to resume war with the Persians after his defeat. In OTL he resumes the war in 622 and defeats the Persians and recaptures Jerusalem. Unfortunately this was just before the Muslim Arabs were able to emerge and defeat the two weakened empires. ATL: Instead...
  9. The Fourth Crusade and the march on Cairo.

    The Fourth Crusade somehow doesn't get diverted to Constantinople. Instead they land in Egypt as planned. This was to be a precursor to an invasion of Palestine. I think the army was about 20-25,000 strong. I am assuming they could take a coastal port like Damietta. Could they take Cairo...
  10. Viking Atlantis

    I was intrigued by the Vikings in Morocco thing so I should say thank you to the uploader of that ATL. I had suggested that a Viking Canary islands would be better but no one seemed to give a damn so I will. Circa 900 AD and the Vikings have colonized Iceland and the Faroes and within a...
  11. Narvik 1942

    Scenario couldn't happen in OTL because Churchill was committed to a Mediterranean strategy but this is ATL. Cancel Operation Torch. The Allies choose to leave North Africa to the 8th Army. They agree that they have been given them enough men and equipment to guarrantee victory at El...
  12. Speed is armour! January 1915.

    World War I On the 24th January 1915 Franz von Hipper and his Battlecruiser squadron were hoping to achieve a glorious victory over some fishing boats when they were suddenly intercepted by Admiral Beatty's Battlecruisers. The result was the Battle of Dogger Bank. In the OTL the end result...
