  2. "France Stays In The War" by Fantasque - teaser

    'Fantasque' of the Naval Fiction Board was kind enough to give me permission to post a recent chapter of his 'France Stays In The War' narritive here as a teaser. The rest of the story can be found on the NFB, at least until the older posts get wiped... *** This chapter is the Battle...

  6. Seaplanes Rule the Waves (and the skies)

    What sort of POD would be required for seaplanes/flying boats such as the Saunders-Roe SR.A/1 'Squirt', Convair F2Y Sea Dart, and Martin P6M SeaMaster to be sucessful, and for their sucessors to be viable today?

  8. Timeline! for the Imperial Mozambican Empire universe

    Here is an EXTREMELY rough draft of my "Imperial Mozambican Empire" timeline. This TL has more holes than a Swiss cheese factory with a mouse infestation - for instance, I have so far almost totally ignored South America - but it should get the jist of what I'm aiming at. I will be adding...

  11. Postulate a POD!

    In Aircraft Profiles Volume 2 (I think that's the title), there's a picture of a Japanese fighter, with the hinomaru marking having gained an addition: the 'bars' from the U.S. insignia! While this was a War Prize, what sort of POD would cause this insignia to be on "real" Japanese aircraft?

    What if Hermann Goering dies in a plane crash in the 1930s, instead of Walther Wever? Does Germany build the Uralbomber? What else?
  13. Political Map of IME-verse

    While my story has gotten a bad case of Writer's Blockade (which I hope to break over the weekend), I've prepared a Political Systems Map of my Imperial Mozambican Empire universe... First, the baseline map: And now, the various political systems. Notes on the 'tags'- Mozambique...
  14. Conch Republic

    In the early 1980s, the Florida Highway Patrol angered the politicians in the Florida Keys by establishing a anti-contraband roadblock on US-1 - the only road in and out - and implying that it would become a permament fixture. After some discussions, the Key West pols (IIRC the mayor, the...

  17. WI U.S. has No Confidence vote?

    What if, when voting in the United States Presidental Election, you could check a 'No Confidence' vote? (Assume it's been this way since the beginning.) I know I'd check it this year... :eek:
