  1. The RDNA-verse: A Strange, Worldbuilding TL
    Threadmarks: Introduction; A World at the Precipice (c.2022)

    Way back in 2010, I conceived of an original character for a roleplay thread on AH.com involving personified countries ala Axis Powers Hetalia: The Royal Dominion of New Austria (RDNA for short, or if you're inclined, Francesca), hailing from a timeline where New Spain was handed to the Austrian...

  2. A Scotsman In Egypt: A Total War Epic

    From the SA forums (via the LP Archive), there's this little AAR/Fanfic about a pair of drunk Scottish princes on a voyage to Egypt. It gets better, and ridiculously awesome.

  3. Create an AH Mockumentary Concept

    After CSA and It Could Happen Here, wouldn't it be interesting to see other works, be it books, fan-made, etc., shown documentary-style? I could imagine an in-universe propaganda film on ISOT!Nantucket or a Jarhead-esque take on Swarm on the Somme. So how would you play with the idea?

  4. Most Morbid AH: Fanfic & Original Works Edition

    Having seen the other thread, how about looking at the world of fanfiction and other original works for some "dark fic" AH. There are fics, TLs and AARs out there which could give A World of Laughter, A World of Tears a run for its money. So anyone found any? EDIT: As much as possible, please...

  5. Bioshock: After the End

    As you may know, the Bioshock series supposes this: What if an ambitious Objectivist (Andrew Ryan) built an "Utopian" metropolis (Rapture) in the bottom of the Atlantic? If one were to put it in AH lines, its POD could be 1946/47 with the city's founding. The very existence of Rapture, let...

  6. 1983: Doomsday

    1983: Doomsday is this TL popular in the AH Wiki. Its POD is basically The Day After in 1983. The Bomb, however, doesn't destroy civilization but leads to a present day at once familiar and unrecognizable. Australia-New Zealand (ANZC) and South America largely escape Armageddon to become major...

  7. The Forever War

    Joe Haldeman's The Forever War is an alternate future history that essentially Vietnam in Space; diverging sometime in the 1980s with the FTL drive and UN-wank. Given that the story covers over 1,000 years of war and development (time dilation included), how plausible would such a scenario be?

  8. Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

    If you know Sid Meier's Civilization series, his 1997/99 Alpha Centauri (SMAC) is a spiritual successor well worth looking at; a future-history mix of hard sci-fi and Instrumentality. Anyone else played it? Here's the backstory in a (very small) nutshell: 2050 Earth is a mess, and the U.N...

  9. A Canticle for Leibowitz Expanded

    For those of you familiar with Walter Miller's post-apocalyptic Catholic epic, it's noticeable how the world picture is limited mainly to North America. Even there, it's the Southwest, Plains and Texas that get most of the focus. Europe, Africa and South America weren't mentioned at all. So how...

  10. WI: British Philippines

    There's this idea a while back on the brief Anglo-Spanish war in late-18th Century Philippines; the Pacific side of the Seven Years War. In 1762, forces from the East India Company managed to occupy Manila until it was returned to Spain at war's end. Suppose they were more successful, and the...
