  1. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    This result could be beneficial for the left in the sense that it might focus minds but realistically, the only way to a majority for the UPA/SDP is via the regionalist parties, which given the situation in Scotland would present massive conflict of interest problems in a stable democracy. I...
  2. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    I'm predicting this is going to end with another coup in the works.
  3. 2018 Presidential Election

    And just like that, Duke’s share of the podcast binge listener demographic drops to 0%.
  4. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    The more things change, the more they stay the same... Equally though I think the Scottish nationalists (both RISE and the SNP) are in a pretty precarious position themselves. At some point, they have to call Westminster's bluff or lose credibility among a large chunk of their support base*...
  5. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    This leaves the UPA and Alba, amongst others, in a very awkward spot.
  6. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    So did Plaid get support for a Welsh parliament? On that subject, what are the Welsh provinces and are they all Welsh only or do some straddle the border?
  7. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    Its definitely not helped the transition's internal stability that the Great Recession hit just a few years after the restoration of democracy. Plus to a great degree the current political instability seems to be the 'unfinished business' of the 2000s being dredged up in the poor economic...
  8. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    So this is awkward. Assuming the top two parties are the only ones with a serious shot at forming a government, then the three minimum scenarios are: SDP+National Grand Coalition: 281 seats... which to be honest isn't that good a majority and would cause all sorts of problems for Hague but...
  9. "A Very British Transition" - A Post-Junta Britain TL

    Obviously it ended in arrest but how did the First Lord actually respond to that question in the moment? On another subject, were there any significant differences to the Harry Potter series prior to democratisation? I can't help but feel like a lot of the satire about the Ministry of Magic...
  10. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Also, the handful of hints we have gotten of the Sunrise War suggest it could also be termed the Yaponese War of Independence, so Sunrise could refer to Yapon as the Land of the Rising Sun.
  11. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Russia is definitely rolling a few d20s at the moment, it will be interesting to see how well their luck holds.
  12. 12:08 - Redux

    I think we were already going to lose a lot of heritage lines due to declining interest. COVID has probably made a crash inevitable. What is needed is a nation wide approach that protects the most historically valuable lines (such as the IoWSR but I can’t see that happening...
  13. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Well that has definitely put a spanner in the French plans... hopefully China does not go full Russia-in-Decades-of-Darkness on them. Even ignoring that possibility, this makes a Russian victory considerably easier to explain, especially if the Americans end up distracted by the Combine.
  14. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Crosscreek is actually in North Province, e.g., OTL Fayetville North Carolina, and was never part of Virginia. It does however further suggest that the ENA is going to lose badly to the Combine - we already know that the 1920s trigger a major re-evaluation of America's political system. If the...
  15. Look to the West Volume VIII: The Bear and the Basilisk

    Probably depends on the exact context - we know that Russia will remain a major colonial power until at least the 1950s/60s and their defeat in the Sunrise War, while the Combine as was seen in the last chapter, is engaged in what can only be described as colonialism in Indonesia and Africa. On...
  16. "Our Struggle": What If Hitler Had Been a Communist?

    Isn't it possible we could see Japan seize Indonesia and Indochina as 'protective measures' after France and the Netherlands fall? All perfectly above the board from the point of view of the British and Americans (who really need those Japanese guns and their Fleet bottling up the Soviets), its...
  17. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    So I want to play a moderately cursed USA game - which means getting Wallace elected in '64. What is the best way to do this? I've tried previously and it resulted thus far in LBJ winning fairly convincingly...
  18. The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Is the intention that the US doesn't have any ships at the start of the game?
  19. Could the Easter Island civilization have avoided its collapse

    The problem is that Diamond is significantly behind the curve on scholarship on Rapa Nui's collapse (if he ever was in front of it). The Fall of Civilization podcast/TV series actually did a very long but convincing explanation that while there is an argument that Rapa Nui's civilization had...
  20. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Sorry to hear that, I hope you are alright.
