  1. What if Jerry Sloan coached the Bulls instead of Phil Jackson?

    Exactly what it says on the title. Let's say the Bulls fire Doug Collins one year early in 1988, Sloan rejects the Jazz's offer, and the original Bull goes home. Are MJ and Pippen as successful OTL in the next ten or so years? Bonus: What do you think happens to Phil Jackson? I kinda wanna see...

  2. Best Pop Culture Licenses That Never Happened (or haven't happened)

    Inspired by these three threads: https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/the-best-movies-never-made.11413/ https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/top-tv-shows-never-made.51488/ https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/best-tv-episodes-never-made.538711/ Ever watch an anime...

  3. ACW: Grant instead of Pope for Second Manassas

    This is a little idea I had since I am reading John J. Hennessy's Return to Bull Run (an excellent read by the way, 100% would recommend). What if Grant went East instead of Pope? My idea for the POD is a slightly different Shiloh, where Grant doesn’t mess up on Day 1 (perhaps staying put at...

  4. Extended WW2 TLs/books?

    Any good TLs/books that deal with a WW2 that starts early/lasts longer/mix of both? Preferably not an Axis victory, I've read enough of those but if anyone recommends a few I'll try them out. I did try the Blitzkrieg Alternate series, but I found reading it to be a bit of a chore. EDIT ON...

  5. Any good AH books on Able Archer?

    I just got Wargame: European Escalation. Are there any good books ala Red Storm Rising where AA kicks off World War III?

  6. Napoleon Returns to Spain

    What if, after Wagram, Napoleon decides to handle the Spain problem himself? Of course, there is one caveat I will throw: if Napoleon doesn't beat Wellington and cure the Spanish ulcer by June 1812, he will still have to go to Russia. So with that in mind, assuming the campaign starts from...

  7. WI Lee, Longstreet, Early, and Hill die in the Wilderness?

    I was reading a book about the Battle of the Wilderness in 1864, and it takes note of a particularly dangerous situation for the Confederate high command: Lee, alongside (if I remember correctly) Jubal Early and/or A.P. Hill ran into a Union platoon and almost got fired on. Much later in the...

  8. WI: Stalin became an American gangster?

    I was reading the first chapter of Simon Montifore's Young Stalin, and it gives a pretty good layout of how Stalin ran his criminal gang in the 1910s. I got thinking with a friend of mine on a little scenario that struck me... (mostly for fun, but I think there's a pretty interesting story...

  9. WI: Jutland - RN fighting with BCs and 5th BS only

    Let's say that only the BC Fleet and the 5th Battle Squadron to fight the HSF. (The Grand Fleet being delayed or the HSF and the scouting force turns tail upon seeing the Grand Fleet.) Is this scenario viable, and if so, what are the short term and long-term effects?

  10. WI: Napoleon gets killed/arrested after his return?

    Let's say when Napoleon gets back from Elba, but instead of turning the armies sent to arrest him into following him one of two things happen: 1. He gets shot by a soldier while said rallying happens. (IE - Someone takes his "Here I am. Kill your Emperor" offer a bit too literally and pulls the...
