Lordroel, what do you think of the latest "Where are they now" chapter, which was updated just this morning? It has a good explanation on what happen in that timeline but some are strange like Hitler marring a women and then killing himself, we all know he was secret a gay. |

Yes, it contains some ironies like the entry for Christina Grimmie in which she was shot dead in a meet and greet after a concert considered that she, along with Katy Perry, survived 5/24 by being in a meet and greet in a concert. Another "Where are they now" irony that I liked was that President Walter Mondale, arguably the best President post-FDR, was the biggest loser in the electoral college since 1936 in that world. Finally, what do you think of the fact that a certain Georgian Bishop became the Oswald Mosley analogue for that world?

It far fetch that anybody could replace Oswald Mosley, also making this Georgian Bishop a fascist and supporter of Hitler is something that could never happen. |

Well, I was talking about this Georgian Bishop filling Oswald Mosley's historical role as the dictator of the main Communist power (The Federation of Workers Republics historically and the Soviet Union in the "A Hohenzollern Germany" timeline). And as for that timeline making Mosley the head of the British Fascist movement, well, Mussolini was a socialist prior to founding Fascism, so was Jacques Doriot. Also, I have heard that Doriot only took power with the connivance of François de La Rocque and his Croix-de-feu Party, so, is Nazism in "A Hohenzollern Germany" taking over initially as part of a coalition with old-school conservatives a good analogy for that?

A sorry must have mistaken by the timeline Rise of a Fascist Britain i am reading where Georgian Bishop takes over the United Kingdom and form a alliance with a Hitler lead Germany. And as for that timeline making Mosley the head of the British Fascist movement, well, Mussolini was a socialist prior to founding Fascism, so was Jacques Doriot. Also, I have heard that Doriot only took power with the connivance of François de La Rocque and his Croix-de-feu Party, so, is Nazism in "A Hohenzollern Germany" taking over initially as part of a coalition with old-school conservatives a good analogy for that? Well its different than having France winning the war timeline you read so much. |

Okay, so, Lordroel, what do you think of the film "Independence Day: Showdown", which was released a few months ago having Christina Grimmie play one of the new major characters for this sequel to the 1999 movie? It is about the aliens attempting to invade and conquer Earth, again? Also, what do you think is the main threat to the world nowadays?

I think the movie is good buy really, blowing up Mars because it is used as a base for the aliens, is that not a bit overkill. |

What was the Russian General thinking when he made that decision?! I'm surprised the ending involved him being given a medal even though Christina Grimmie's character did show a lot of bravery and deserved the medal she received in the ending. Also, what do you think was the reason the bombs unleashed in 5/24 killed so many people?

I think that the Char G1 was a decent tank but like the Italian tanks, it was used wrongly. But aside from that, I agree with you. So, Lordroel, what do you think was the worst war crime perpetrated in WW2 aside from what happened in the Great Cleansing? Was it the Sack of Hamburg?

I think the Sack of Hamburg, the terror bombing of Amsterdam and the siege of Munich where the French killed everybody trying to escape the surrounding city are among the most horrible war crimes committed during the World War II (OOC what was WWI). |

OOC: WW1 was caused by a Fashoda-esque crisis brewing in around 1910 and pitted France, Germany, and Austria against Russia, Italy, and Britain and ended with Russia suing for a peace of exhaustion in 1913 and Italy doing the same in 1914 while Britain fought on until 1916 when the US joined the war on the side of the Germans and on February 2, 1917, Britain sued for peace.
