Historically he was brought to the US by the Edison company in 1884 when their European manager Charles Bachelor moved back. Even with a smaller USA, it's still quite likely to have happened.

@William Ings It's important to remember that part of the core concept for this setting is that the Nazi party and the socioeconomic situation that brought it about wouldn't really exist,...

If I'm reading Alex's description right, Nazis haven't happened. Fascism was basically a post-WW1 movement, so if WW1 is still being fought into the 1920's there's no reason for it to have arisen (...

Tesla seemed to be opposed to the Nazi annexation of his homeland and didn't like that European powers let it happen. I'm not sure what he thought of pre-Nazi Germany, but I can't imagine he would ...

@Steven StGeorges Yeah, Nikola Tesla is such a mainstay of the genre, I've been wondering about what to do with him, in our world he went to the US. The question is, if the US isn't such an at...

@Alex M  Just for the fun.. and what's about Telsa and his inventions especially his famed Death Ray? 😉  

Some thoughts on possible units. Apache mercenaries, the Apache fighters cemented their fearsome reputation fighting in conflicts throughout the Americas. I think this would be an interesting unit...

@Bill Thomas Its on Amazon for just £16 can you tell me its combat system what Dice used, love the Black and White Alien space ship photos,  only 4 pages shown but looks tempting. Got a ...

@Bill Thomas God  could these be my default "Falling Skies" rules, never understand with all the wierd and unusual  IP`s this was never seized upon. I mean come on, with the resistance, t...

@lauregami @William Redford You know what, both of you, I think that our hobby lives in flowing waves. Sometimes building, sometime reading, painting, lost in design, what ever we do, trick I`ve fo...

When it's hot enough to dry paint on the brush it's time to pack the models away and head to the water... especially if you have a surf-loving hound 🤣

@William Redford Sorry for your loss Bill, it`s never a good time to lose them, the feelings never go away only dull. As I type this I`m surrounded by the ashes of our animals in photo frames. Six ...

@Geoff Maybury sorry, was rushing about earlier and should have mentioned this; it's Patrick's new ruleset and it's awesome! I've known about this for some time but it's now available from the usua...

So the US doesn't have a pacific presence like it did in our timeline. Hawaii for example is an "independent kingdom" though is host to a large Japanese naval base. The Philippines are still part o...

@Brian Van De Walker If the US had sided with Germany earlier on in WWI, how would that have allowed Germany to develop tanks first, given that you already say Britain had blocked American shipping...

@lauregami I agree with @GreenScorpion . The tile looks really good already. With my own games I have never really gotten in to terrain building. For wargames I have always played at other peoples ...

@Geoff Maybury Zona Alfa, now you're talking... if you're at all into cyberpunk then check out Patricks other games... he's a mate of mine and I love his games 😍

I got my order of stargrave and frostgrave boxes delivered yesterday and I have to say the details of the minis are great and the kits seem to have a large amount of options. I had seen people in o...

@William Redford @William Ings  if we are talking more realistic hist scale proportion miniature set which I assume we are😅, given what we have seen it better just be females on that sprue and...

@lauregami  It is often hard to understand whether something we are building is going to look nice or not until it is finished and it can often be demoralizing, but the important thing is to k...

@Grumpy Gnome Well, that by itself would actually be interesting and a more likely setting in some respects than one with a divided America that still has a Southern half practicing slavery (which...

@Caratacus That doesn't mean they sculpted them from step 1, just as likely (more so given what I know of them, even their Golden boy didn't start out as their sculpting🙄) that they just got the m...

@B Scobe Well beyond what’s on the release schedule, no idea when they are coming out. As to firearm use, they are both Gunpowder Empires so I can see why you ask. At the timeframe your loo...

Thank you for the advice on the banners! I think that'll look a lot more convincing than trying to do them in milliput. It was still a fun experiment! The bad news is I still haven't done much cra...

Love the Doggos. My Bella passed this past February. A week after my birthday. :( she was only 7... but that is not unusual for an English Bull Dog. My Bulldog before her, Winston, passed when he w...

@Caratacus So for starters, I'm definitely not a game publisher or anything like that. I was just putting this together for myself and thought I would share, a hack-able setting that lets you ...

@Davey C. Looks really good. :)

@William Redford that reminds me! I shamelessly ripped off one the models from your conquistador thread.

Please all stay safe and "Hydrate" CYBER ROUND to the whole forum. Cheers to all of you.

You read it right folks 98% F , egg frying time, so I`m here indoors pestering you lot, when I childishly wanted to paint. Bl**dy stuff would be dry on the brush, before it got to the figure. I kne...

Then here`s the temp at my spot.

Hi all , some of you might remember my story on the painting station. Today i thought lets do some painting ,"joke not to day guys and girls not at my place . Heres a photo of my paradise. Plus our...

@Grumpy Gnome Don`t no if they fit for sure  here, but here`s my 2 peney`s worth,. By the way Fostgrave Snake men , Stargrave  female , no idea on the animals nothing on sprue.

@Benjamin Hayward @Grumpy Gnome @Geoff Maybury @William Redford ,Hells bell just had flash back to Aifix Saturn  5 kit. Mine eventually went the way of the cat, smart animal, or mom got tyred ...

My friend, you have my attention. I am also a fan of alternative history, my own personal alternative history project involves a 20th Century world is the result of an alternative scenario that st...

Great to see that WGA are putting value into their Monstrous Infantry boxes - 12 per box is excellent compared to GW and Mantic. If these rumours are true then they'll have a hit on their hands. N...

@Brian Van De Walker  I am certain in the case of the Celt, Imperial Roman and Caesarian Roman sprues - if you look at them they have 'copyright Warlord Games' and the year they were first de...

@Blutze halp indeed! I too hate integral bases. I've gone for the recessed base solution, though resin rather than WA's options as I prefer the Citadel-style tapered edges.  

I've been looking for some 17th Lancers waterslide decals for 28mm and can't find anything, anyone know where I might be able to find some? I'm happy to just go the custom route, but I'm actually k...

@Grumpy Gnome  Or Alien Nation with the late James Caan  as Sykes... and its Tenctonese refugees. Det. Samuel 'George' Francisco: And that fits?Det. Sgt. Matthew Sykes: Well... Yeah, it...

@Blutze Only what what was said in the initial news announcement (Full reveal pasted in the 2nd message in this thread). "So these fellows will come in around 45mm or so. This will be a full frame...

You're assuming it'll be 12 minis per box. Has that been announced anywhere, and do we know if the price per box will be the usual WGA 33-35 monies? We're looking at TTCombat's six trolls for 25 mo...

Too small, flimsy and limited options IDK, flimsy to me implies that they don't hold up to use and play, constantly breaking. I can see that on the centaur-specific twohanded weapon system, but ...

@William Ings even if it was free, thst would be a bone of contention at my house. 

@Steven StGeorges hahaha, literally what I was doing over my coffee this morning. It's funny I don't think I've actually bought any GW models for over a decade, but I buy plenty of bits, Mecha...

Something like District Nine “Prawns” would be cool.... “Don’t point your tentacle at me, man!”

@Geoff Maybury obviously it takes your spouses side of the bed, after she leaves you for maxing out your credit.

I agree with those calling for felinids.  An Arabian / Egyptian theme for fantasy, why not stick with whats gone before (Alchemy and others).  I would dearly love to expand my catfolk arm...
