    AHC/WI: American Republic overthrown

    Replace Washington (or Washington's personality) with a caesarian minded general like Bonaparte. Someone who might have the interests of the country at heart, but also a predisposition to authoritarianism and the ability to sell it. Whoever this new general is would have to one hell of a...

    AHC: Baltic Sea united into one, not-Norse empire

    The OTL Hansa fulfills this, though more through indirect than direct rule. After the Kalmar Union for a while into the 15th century the Hanseats dominated Scandinavian internal politics (dating back to the Peace of Stralsund) and had almost every non-Scandinavian town on the Baltic as a member...

    Would the French Revolution have happened if the American Revolution didn't?

    The problems with French tax collection date back way further than LXIV, and the reigns of XV and XVI saw increased taxation outside of the Taille (from which the nobility were exempt). It was still inefficient, for sure, and that inefficient management of Frances wealth (together with accrual...

    Any chance of Stalin and Hitler joining forces in WWII

    If that's somehow the case, Germany is probably better off for it. Depends on how the British conclude their war with the Germans though. And in all likelihood, they'll make a peace with Stalin far before they would with Hitler. The net positive to this for Germany is that in the event Britain...

    WI: Republicans reveal Wallace's strange beliefs, Democrats reveal Willkie's affairs?

    I think there were a fair few people who were upset about the act as well. Of course, most of it was the height of hypocrisy given who was speaker at the time.

    WI: Republicans reveal Wallace's strange beliefs, Democrats reveal Willkie's affairs?

    Plus, that was in the 90's. This is the 1940, so there will be a whole lot more people taking this line of thought. If these two things are revealed, would the tone of the campaign shift into enough nastiness that the GOP attempt to smear FDR on his own personal issues? Would Polio come into...

    God I would ragequit so fast if the AI pulled off some Normandy-level deceptions on me. Or Mincemeat.

    AHC: Prevent the US from expanding to the West Coast

    How plausible is an early, permanent divide in the Union? That could see the major colonial powers exploit whatever the aftermath is, and keep *USA from pushing as far West as it did.

    I don't think AH.com has spawned any major mods, especially not a group on the scale of KR.

    The AI in 2 really had a nasty habit of sending dozens of divisions to every beach in sight. Seeing the Americans charging up the Nile and across the Sahara was pretty hilarious though. Not to mention those damn East Siberian landings if those provinces ever fell foul of the WAllies.

    The only really complex thing in the game was the economy, and it wasn't even super intimidating once you got the hang of it. I swear, they're going to remove POPs or something for the next Vicky

    It's been a while since I was on the plaza. God I'd love to see a Vicky3, I just hope they don't take the EUIV approach they took with HoI4. Vicky's era is so awesome, it's my field of study and I really wish more games would do it justice. Vicky2 was so damn close to being phenomenal, it just...

    I'd be surprised if they even make Vicky3.

    I wonder at what point the paradox fanbase is going to become fed up with the current direction of the company? 88% positive for a watered down version of the previous installments? Creative Assembly had Rome II, I wonder what it'll be for Paradox.

    American Kings other than Washington

    I think only Catholics or states in the Holy Roman Empire had any obstacles (other than :rolleyes: if you were way too small) to simply creating a Royal crown for themselves. So yeah, no reason for the US to limit itself to being a prince, they'd definitely go Royal. Probably not Imperial though.

    American Kings other than Washington

    The founders were already quite anti-populist (or elitist, depending on how you look at things) as evidenced by the electoral college, senatorial elections through state legislatures, vetoes and the powerful Supreme Court. It was all designed precisely so that not anybody can grow up to be...
