Default Re: Do you like the What IF section?
The more recent alternate history scenarios are indded quite interesting, and as a wargamer I can't really write them off as wargames are whatifs.

However I get tired by the 'more of the same' scenarious where once again the Germans win WW2 vicariously in the mind of the writer, through the intervention of some deus ex machina or some unlikely pre-condition. I'm sorry if I lose my composure and blow my top, but sometimes there are statements so blatantly ignorant that I can't pretend I didn't see anything. Mind you, nothing against Germans, rather against German Wannabees

I very much prefer What Was to What Wasn't.
