Some ISOT thoughts
Been thinking about potentially doing an ISOT timeline. At the moment I have these ideas:
-The Axis of Evil (Iraq, Iran, North Korea) warped back from 2002 to 1939. I already did do this as a timeline on AH.COM, but I may try again
-The Beyond Axis of evil (Cuba, Libya, and Syria) sent back in time to the Progressive era. This was suggested by a friend earlier today and I just had to write it down
-Maoist China sent back in time to the Second Opium War. Imagine how Marx would react.
So not too long ago, I posted the map scenario "While others write history, I forge it," a basic parallelism map where Putin plays the role of Mussolini and everyone else fills a role. As said before, that was a collaborative scenario between me and Mangofett, and it was funny enough that the Possible History youtube channel actually picked it up and made it into a youtube video! It may not include all of my ideas, but it has many unique ideas of his own. I'm also adding the link to the original map. Go check it out, say Marklin sent ya'
Some more parallels and maps I'm working on:
Some more parallels and scenarios I'm working on:
Three Napoleonic maps:
-Hitler is Robespierre, with Rommel becoming Napoleon after Hitler gets couped due to a war breaking out over Anschluss. Since RVB is making a Hitler-Napoleon scenario, I might hold off on this one
-Russian Revolution becomes the French Revolution analog
-Napoleonic wars a century later. Germany reunifies and tries to retake Europe in the 90s and 2000s, concluding with another war in Russia in 2012. China is probably the US.
Some WW1 scenarios
-That WW1 counterpart to Endsieg
-WW2, but the Axis Powers are the old Central Powers, ala TL 191's Entente
-Hitler becomes Napoleon III. Still in need of ideas. Maybe the USSR strikes first in a Crimea War analog
-Someone else as Napoleon III, the man is in the shadow of his uncle.
-End of History Modernized: 1890s as 1990s. May or may not be set in the same TL as my modernized 1920s. Might make something similar for the 1860s.
-Deathworld cover map: A cover map of a scenario I found on 1d4chan where the Atompunk Soviets and Occult Nazis are in a cold war. This map is actually complete, it just needs thumbnails.
-Something to do with World War 2.5. Still Indescisive about what exactly though.
I'm back
I've returned from Georgia and am getting ready to work on projects. At the moment, however, one project is dominating all. After seeing rvbomally make an American French Revolution and Superhornet make a Russian French Revolution, I am now compelled to make a Chinese French Revolution.
Anyone have any ideas? I have the US as the British Empire, but that's basically it.
More projects
Just to fill time while I slog through finals and work on the final updates for past maps, here are some previews:
-Doomed to Repetition Unofficial Interquel: A map set during the Napoleonic Wars or pre-Civil War analog in RVBOmally's Doomed to Repetition map. There is a strong possibility I might just make this it's own thing based on the scenario.
-End of History Modernized: 1890s as 1990s. May or may not be set in the same TL as my modernized 1920s. Might make something similar for the 1860s.
-Full World cover map of one of O'Malley's 16 2ACWs. Most likely either the English Civil War or Russian Civil War
-World War 1.5(A) and (C) continuations. Don't hold your breath for these ones. For the former, it's probably gonna be based on my revision I made earlier, minus the Kaiserreich twist.
-Deathworld cover map: A cover map of a scenario I found on 1d4chan where the Atompunk Soviets and Occult Nazis are in a cold war. This map is actually complete, it just needs thumbnails.
-21st century as 19th century: Marklin edition, I may just make this a sequel to O'Malley's Power to the Players.
