What if Andy Jackson and the boys fought with Napoleon at Waterloo? What if Napolean kept the Louisiana Territory and retreated there? What if Han China and Rome clashed during Caesar and Cleopatra's reign-Space 89 BC with airships? What if all the alternate weaponry in the videos of Forgotten Weapons were adopted by everyone? What if Marilyn Monroe shot JFK? What if Elvis stayed in the Army and fought in Viet Nam? What if wargaming was banned due to the Left's Political Correctness and the Right's Historical Revisionism? Answer/discuss in the Blue Fezz only. What if all men were brothers-would you want one to marry your sister? |

American Revolution has several possibilities.
Besides the obvious what if Canada was captured in 1775, there are several good ones. What if the Spanish had attacked St Augustine or a Franco-Spanish assault on Jamaica.
What if the British Central American invasion force made up of mainly Proventials and Patriot POW had not all died of disease. What if in 1814-15 the British had captured New a Orleans. |

Hmph. Remind me not to buy and SF by Mark Ball. SF is imagination governed by knowledge and reason. He misses that about half the time. |
