  1. Wrapped in Flames: The Great American War and Beyond

    Did Britain beat the US in a fight? The war ended with the British losing the last Sea and Land battle's and letting the US of really lightly , it just seems to be the same old thing again where this subject is concerned.

  2. Wrapped in Flames: The Great American War and Beyond

    So the last land Battle for the British was effectively a defeat and the last major Naval Battle was a defeat and now and armastice is signed with once again the British coming out second best, how is this any different from the usual Union beats everyone turn of events

  3. Wrapped In Flames

    Ah but don't forget if a war with the US did break out most of them wouldn't want to fight/or would want to be Americans so that number would fall significantly

  4. BURNISHED ROWS OF STEEL: A History of the Great War (Foreward)

    How can I put this there have been quite a number of alternate history's on this subject some of which have been published and its always and American author and its always the same story. It would make a nice change to see the British contribution to be more than incompetent cannon fodder. I...

  5. BURNISHED ROWS OF STEEL: A History of the Great War (Foreward)

    Oh the British have lost again! I really don't get it? Where is the appeal in something where the outcome is always so utterly predictable each time? Why not just cut to the end and just say the Union wins and the British are given the traditional humiliating trouncing that always takes place...

    Good point, I also missed bad teeth and no chins, got to have all the sterotypes

  7. Wrapped In Flames

    Because as usual its one rule for the British and another for the Americans. Some people seem to be unable to handle the idea that there may be a middle ground where the British are something other than arrogant, bumbling incompetent's and the Americans are not all infallible war gods. Unless...

    See what happens if you have the Brits have any success against the Mericans! You only have yourself to blame.

  9. BURNISHED ROWS OF STEEL: A History of the Great War (Foreward)

    If? The result of this little tale is as predictable as pretty much everything churned up on this subject.

  10. Why do the British always ally with the South?

    This is turning into another everyone v TFSmith121 thread and really what's the point? Your never going to shift him from his Brits suck at everything/Merica is invincible position so it just going to go round and round again like usual.

  11. Wrapped In Flames

    I have, makes a nice change to the usual fare :)

  12. Wrapped In Flames

    That's it this turning into a wank now! Not only have you had the British win a battle on land but now they have managed to get through one at sea without making a total mess of things. Not one ship ran aground or crashed into another one and the Shore Batteries failed to sink any of them when...

  13. AHC: American Civil War turns into a World War

    So there may be one, which isn't much compared to all the usual one way traffic, it does seem however that EC isn't giving the British Commanders their traditional lobotomy they always receive from American Authors so we shall how that pans out.

  14. AHC: American Civil War turns into a World War

    Never seen anyone say this either, I've seen plenty of arrogant, idiot British (with various degrees of evil villainy) being crushed by infallible Americans who invent various wonder weapons on the way. Have yet to witness one instance of operation Imperial Storm whatever that may be or...

  15. How to achieve a British "victory" in the war of 1812?

    Would be nice to get through one discussion on this subject without the usual sniping, it seems that any mention of alternate events that may have the British doing better against the US are pretty much heresy to some people. Does make it hard to have a straight forward conversation on the...

  16. With a British Victory in the War of 1812, how would the butterflies affect Europe?

    Was it? I thought it was a certain banned persons Brits in the American Civil war one that dared not to have the Brits crushed in 30 seconds flat , there was quite a fuss about that as well.

  17. With a British Victory in the War of 1812, how would the butterflies affect Europe?

    Cutting straight through the endless argument about how the British would win the war of 1812 and getting to the aftermath I don't see a relatively small land gain (we are not talking conquest of the US here) having much effect on Europe. Would anyone in the aftermath of the Napoleonic War be...

  18. BURNISHED ROWS OF STEEL: A History of the Great War (Foreward)

    This part does make little sense to me as well, the resistance against the US Invasion in 1812 was a defining moment for Canada but it seems all has been forgotten and now the Canadians are now at best reluctant to defend their lands from the same Invaders. I'm half expecting Quebec to fall next...

  19. BURNISHED ROWS OF STEEL: A History of the Great War (Foreward)

    Of course the British are loosing this is just following in the steps of Harrisson, Conroy and Tsouras with the Brits making their usual blunders and the Union doing no wrong. First we have a nice naval battle where the dozy Royal Navy run a ship aground then the next one has the incident that...

  20. Onward to Defeat!

    There is a chance that there may be a touch of tongue in cheek over exaggeration on my part in my posts that you may have missed, unless you think I am seriously comparing the ACW/Brit intervention stories on these boards to the drivel that has been actually published on the subject. I have...
