  1. Munich Shuffle: 1938-1942

    In my opinion. Something noted in this TL is that in no small part, the Nuclear Taboo came about because Nukes were used. Sometimes, events simply scar the world deeply enough that the world is forever changed. In the same sense, we, OTL and ITTL, live in a post-WWII World, and we are all...

  2. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I think we can still, quite reasonably, praise and admire those historical figures who were able to shake off the prevailing moral strictures of their time and align themselves with, well, the side of right. Even if they didn't find their own views exactly where we might, personally, think they...

  3. Why the Chinese play cricket (an Imperial Federation timeline)

    Methinks the French Government may run into some insufficient Élan and attaque à outrance issues.

  4. Why the Chinese play cricket (an Imperial Federation timeline)

    Jesus.

  5. Why the Chinese play cricket (an Imperial Federation timeline)

    I mean, the French Military did just create a Military-Republican/Imperial Guard split system, and it did it to itself. Frankly, the mind boggles.

  6. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    9th Hunnic Armoured Division

  7. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    I think the Bugged Mansion was only for Generals etc. Frankly, I think that the German Officers in question would become very suspicious when they realised that they were all from Panzer Divisions and had been moved to these lovely new accomodations.

  8. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    DUKE? Dominion, UK, Empire?

  9. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    "More recent historiography takes the view that was what likely heard was Confederate Artillery on exercises. However, the image of Beckenridge's Firing Squad assembling under the sound of Union Artillery has remainined an enduring one, both in media representations and the public imagination..."

  10. Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    The A13 (SJCV Survives Matilda Mk. 1 replacement) is not, IIRC, the Matilda Mk. 1 of OTL with a modified turret. I'm fairly sure that it's a somewhat larger and generally more capable vehicle with the Pom-Pom. (One of the conceits/changes being Sir John determining that the original Matilda spec...

  11. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    The joke is, the more radical/abolitionist turn that the Union has taken might actually end up being something of a benefit here. The Coup and the Junta have done the Union the favour of identifying the cause of the Confederacy with that of Slavery. They've made it quite clear that they're...

  12. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    "The only acceptable Tyranny is our Tyranny."

  13. Why the Chinese play cricket (an Imperial Federation timeline)

    Well, for as long as the current 'generation' in diplomacy lasts, at least. Which probably means 'until after the next global conflict'. Glances at the date How are the Balkans this time of century?

  14. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    Insufficient Bushido Spirit issue. I would have simply not sunk.

  15. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    Of course, it's a WW2 Submarine in WW2 traversing through dangerous territory. It doesn't need McArthur to be... McArthur for the Submarine to simply dive and never surface again. War is hell, and a messy one at that.

  16. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the Lend-Lease Tanks came with their Machine Guns as well- so the BESA for the British stuff, M1919 and M2 for the American ones. Ofc, Soldiers are soldiers and have forever been soldiers, so it wouldn't surprise me if there were some Soviet LL Tanks with some...

  17. Sir John Valentine Carden Survives. Part 2.

    As inevitable as Entropy.

  18. Until Every Drop of Blood Is Paid: A More Radical American Civil War

    I mean, I can see an argument for the ITTL Lost Cause morphing into some sort of Socialist/Anarchist movement. The Coup and the Junta, after all, reveal whom their real enemy was: The Aristocracy. And any Anti-Aristocracy movement has to ask themselves what do we replace the Aristocracy with...

  19. Keynes' Cruisers Volume 2

    Booooooo.

  20. Alternative History Armoured Fighting Vehicles Part 3

    To be honest, I'm mostly just impressed that the thing made it to the testing area at all.
