Do you guys like alternate history? what are some of your favorite pieces of this genre?
>>1774331
Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg. Another althistory I like is Timeline 191.
>>1774444
>Italy splitting up
>Austria Hungary still existing
>Russia not commie
>>1774534
Italy was split into a confederation of nobles and the Pope in the North and the kingdom of the Two Sicilies after WWI, the Austro-Hungarians are only nominally united and tend to fall apart in game, and Russia is in a Weimar Republic scenario, with a government that falls to a Nazi equivalent, commies, or monarchists about 75% of the time.
Is red inferno any good?
I've been developing one called "Reign of the Conquerors" about Napoleon, Nader Shah, Simon Bolivar, and Mohammed Ali all being a bit more successful in consolidating (or protecting their work in Napoleon's case.)
One feature I like about the timeline I've developed is how France sets up a sort of academia for the entire continent by mass exporting scholarships and degrees, and how Prussia under Bismarck becomes an intensely religious state that conquers the Baltics so that it can have an edge against Russia, Warsaw, and Napoopan.

As a communist in the West, KR quite literally makes me cum
Divergences of Darkness for Vicky.
Nevsky, thats what
Contains 10 what-if scenarios where the South wins the Civil War. My favourite is the one where Lee convinces Davis to adopt Cleburne's proposal.
Almost anything but the boring "What if the Nazis conquered the world ?!?!?!?!?!111/1/1/1//1/?????" is most often interesting
Except for the people on places like ah.com who make the most boring threads about some different airplane design or a domestic politics thread.
>>1775766
What would you say to a what-if scenario where the Americans remain neutral throughout the war? The Allies still win or an armistice is settled, but Europe is entirely worn down to the point where every nation within it is on the verge of economic collapse. The Japanese get to keep their empire and the US remains a country of neutrality.
>>1774331
I haven't actually read it myself, but from what I've read ABOUT it, I really like the premise of the book "1632", about a 20th century american mining town being displaced in time and landing right in the middle of the Thirty Years' War in Thuringia. Also Kaiserreich, like >>1774444 mentions, is probably my favorite piece overall.
>>1775317
The Kaiser.

Presumably
Had the terms of the Carlisle Commission (self-rule, Parliamentary Representation, repeal of the Tea Act and other Intolerable Acts) been offered to the Continental Congress in 1775, rather than after the Battle of Saratoga and the formation of a Franco-American alliance, would the colonies have accepted? Would America have remained a part of the United Kingdom, and for how long?

There's more than one person with the name John, Carlos, etc. Muhammad Ali is no exception

>Do you guys like alternate history
Only when it's not laughably bad, like having Japan and Germany invade America.

The whole series is absolute bullshit, but I love 1632.

I love alternate history, but I've never really found any good works. And I don't really trust /his/, because of people like >>1775408

I'm sorry but this board doesn't allow Commies or Crypto-Commies
My dad told me about an interesting one, not sure if he came up with it or if he'd seen it elsewhere.
>hitler assassinated 1944
>German generals imprison/execute remaining nazi high command
>Germany surrenders on the condition that her war machine be put to use against USSR
>Allies, now including Germany and possibly a revived France, turn on USSR
Sounds kinda cool to me
>>1776926
Returned to Spain. Most Allied overseas territories are either returned to their nearest claimant (e.g. Argentina takes the Falklands) or just went to Germany (e.g. Malta, Indochina). India balkanized.
>>1777091
>Germany surrenders on the condition
Unworkable fantasy. Allies would not accept anything but uncondition surrender
>>1777135
Okay, let's take that for a minute.
>Russia demands unconditional
>US UK know what's up and offers some decent terms because they wanna fuck USSR
Or
>Germany unconditionally surrenders to US/UK
>team up on USSR
You missed the big point entirely

In this reality they're an Authoritarian state under the rule of Augustin P. Justo, a former military commander. In real life he performed a coup against the government in 1930 and became president in 32, so I assume in this timeline that still happened, but the Germans supported him and they have some kind of agreement.
Also, Argentina starts the game embargoing all the communist states, so they may be a part of Germany's economic bloc. Other countries in the game that start with that tend to be on Germany's side or in their sphere of influence.
What if the Punic Wars ended in Carthage's favor?
>>1777091
There wasn't really much left of a German war machine in 1944. Just as Allies and USSR didn't attack each other in 1945, they wouldn't in 1944.
>>1777212
Elephants inslave humanity.
>>1777212
Western Civilization would not exist the way we know it today. There would be no Frankish Empire, no >H>R>E and no Byzantine Empire, which all claimed to be successors to the Roman state. With the Romans vanquished so soon, Christianity would not be able to spread across the Mediterranean and Europe. The Carthaginian language would influence and father languages all across the Mediterranean. maybe they would even sail to the Americas looking for new trade routes. The elephants would run rampant and the shekels would be surreal.
>>1777091
That was the plan with Winston Churchill's Operation Unthinkable, more or less.

What other places are there for good Alt-History other than ah.com?

>>hitler assassinated 1944
>>German generals imprison/execute remaining nazi high command
This was the plan of Operation Walküre. The insurgents wanted to sign a peace treaty with the allies, but keep all the territories they won in the war. It might have been pretty cool. Especially our new flag would have been the shit.

Operation Unicorn, an alternate history series currently being written on Yuku where Germany manages to gain naval superiority over Britain in WW1 and invades Ireland. Despite how the premise sounds it's actually extremely well written and I recommend it.

>loses war his entire career was premised on fighting, country destroyed and occupied, killed by member of race he sought to annihilate
Yeah, sounds like the career of a statesman who did nothing wrong.
Harry Turtledove has written some very good alternate history novels, particularly the TL-191 series. The Peshawar Lancers, by SMS Stirling, is also quite good.
