Alternate History NESes; Spout some ideas!

[Xen]

@Das; you right, you never said it, and I got ahead of myself; though, it did seemed you implied that the technology in question was that advanced.

 

[das]

Here's my own variation on the overused theme of "Axis WWII victory". The year is 1980, Cold War is still on, there are three (or five, depending on who you ask) alliances.

 

[das]

And here are the alliances. Comintern is allied with Atlantic Pact; European Union is allied with the Greater Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.

 

[Kal'thzar]

Hmmm Whats the general public opinion In Ireland and Swizterland in that scenario?

Them being the only ones not involved in any alliance.

 

[das]

Neutrality, duh. Switzerland is, well, like usual. Perhaps even MORE isolationist. Ireland is torn by poltiical debates between the pro-EU and the pro-AP. The pro-EU faction is currently more influential.

 

[Kal'thzar]

t'was the irish i was more intrested in really

EDIT: My only concern is that swiss politics would be slightly affected by the economic dependance on those it trades with, in this case they have to deal with the EU. (like in the actual history)

 

[das]

Well, yes. But that's hardly enough for Switzerland to step out of neutrality.

Btw - there were numerous proxy wars in Latin America, Middle East and India (well, just one in India - the Indian Independance War).

 

[Kal'thzar]

I agree, just thinking that the swiss will end up being slightly more pro-EU out of nessecaty.

 

[das]

Pro-EU. But not EU.

 

[Kal'thzar]

Very Good, well I'm happy

 

[Reno]

Wow, Suur-Suomi is created.

(For those of you who don't know Suur-Suomi stands for Greater-Finland)

 

[North King]

Communist India? A must have, here.

 

[Communisto]

uh oh... i see Ulster under the foul hand of London. To Arms sons of Chucullain!

 

[Kal'thzar]

Ok so now we know how WWIII starts....

 

[Warman17]

Germany must be less Nazi-ish because they'd never give up all that land for the aryan race to use.

 

[Cuivienen]

Shouldn't the French capital still be at Vichy? (And, for that matter, why would the Germans return northern France to Vichy?)

 

[Communisto]

the answer to warman and cuivienen is probably because the Germans wouldn't have the capacity to directly hold their empire, so they broke it into smaller puppet states

 

[Insane_Panda]

Duetschland Uber Alles!

or perhaps...

Banzai!!!

 

[das]

Communist India?

Oh, India is very interesting here. It started out as Nazi, then there was a near-civil war after opposition leader Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by (alleged) government agents, a brief period of corrupt democracy degenerating into pro-Japanese military dictatorship, and finally, the Revolution.

Germany must be less Nazi-ish because they'd never give up all that land for the aryan race to use.

Actually, all this "Germany to the Urals" stuff is... shall we say untrue. The ORIGINAL Ostland plan involved the annexation of Belorus, Pribaltic and Ingria (which was why there WERE in OTL collaborationist Russian and Ukrainean "governments").

Shouldn't the French capital still be at Vichy? (And, for that matter, why would the Germans return northern France to Vichy?)

Many in German ruling circles wanted to give it back. Not sure about Hitler's stance, but I don't think they'll keep it after his death.

Hmm...

How many of you people here are reading Decades of Darkness? IMHO its the best Alternate History ever! Would make for a good NES setting...
