  1. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    In terms of keeping Royals into the 20th century, this is a case where an Alternate tl has to make sense and reality doesn't. iOtl, five of the six major powers (I'm not counting the Serbs as major) going into WWI had monarchies. Of the five, *one* had a monarchy by 1920-ish. (the UK). ittl...
  2. Malaya What If

    Whose time? London, Singapore, tokyo, Washington? It really make me wonder, is there *any* level of defense of Singapore/Malaya that would cause the Japanese to pull enough Army troops from the Philippines to make a significant difference (just as a guide having MacArthur evacuate/die more than...
  3. Wrapped in Flames: The Great American War and Beyond

    I think cold should be in there at least three times. :)
  4. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    In regards to the Black Prince, I'm trying to remember what ends up happening to each of the Bloc Sud heads of government that started the war. None of them came even close to the treatment that germany intends for the Black Prince.
  5. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    I'm not completely sure whether the borders were the same after the wars of the 1860s ittl, but I *could* see Denmark escaping from this with little territorial loss and/or monetary cost, they might even end up better off than Mexico in a peace treaty.
  6. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Another point is that fighting on the FI border is going to make the GAW Eastern Front feel like the Western Front. You can't see the Appalachians from the Atlantic, I believe you can see the Alps from Med.
  7. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Honestly, does Moscow have a preference as to who they want to win? I would expect that on a macro level, they would prefer a Victorious France and Austria Hungary with a Neutered German and Italy. France has almost *no* areas of conflict with the Russians other than Korea and Austria-Hungary at...
  8. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Is it even possible for Germany and Italy to treat France post-war the way that the USA treated the CSA? Germany and Italy can only take so much "border" areas. Germany isn't taking Paris, probably Alsace and the most that would be wanted riverwise is to push France off the Rhine which...
  9. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    If that happened, I don't think we get war...
  10. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Is Thomas Schreiber real?
  11. How scary can 1920s-1930s Soviet Union be to Europe and the United States?

    With a post 1918 POD (more or less) I'm trying to get a balance between Otl and the Extremely Reluctant Furher with both France and Germany as powers in 1940 without either being at war or expecting a war between them at any moment. In order to have *that* you would need something that would...
  12. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Which is why Celiac Disease ittl isn't figured out until 2006 and thus this is a dystopia. :)
  13. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Does Ireland becoming a dominion mean that the city remains as "Londonderry" into the 21st century???
  14. 28 Days Later - Death of a Nation

    So in the movie that they are doing for 28 Years later, how far do we expect that the Zombies have gotten? Berlin? Moscow? Bangkok? Johannesburg?
  15. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    In some ways even more frustrating would be if he was pardoned and then disappeared...
  16. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Or conversely, he is convicted and then Austria could be in a situation where either they lose the French Alliance if Steffie goes to Jail/Noose but if they pardon him and they risk Germany declaring war (which Germany ends up doing).
  17. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Ugh. Just realized that any situation where the Italians don't get Suez post-CEW is likely to be described as a vittoria mutilata.
  18. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    that does assume that the US ittl will be as willing to allow other rich countries to use it. It does appear looking at the likely players post CEW that only the British will have the money and interest in a second canal. the Germans are still the little buddy in Nicaragua, the Italians are...
  19. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    As far as I can tell from the story, Harrisburg was under the gun from October 1913 when the Confederates were stopped there until the York Offensive in Late March 1914. :p
  20. Sequel de Mayo (Cinco de Mayo, Vol. II)

    Agreed, but Harrisburg would have been hit by a *lot* of Artillery even if it never fell. Harrisburg will probably take through the end of the war to recover at least. Baltimore, I completely agree. On the other hand, manufacturing is changing rapidly enough that a clean slate for building...
