As far as I know, the only such alt history movies were the one about Pearl Harbor with jets (you know which one, you sure do) and the Japanese 'series' about a detachment of JSDF timewarped back to feudal Japan. Oh, and a boomstick. The Boomstick. You know which Boomstick is that.

Ah, can't say I'm as widely-read or well-versed in "popular culture" as perhaps I ought to be, apart.  Although Boomstick was a common term in UK armed services colloquial conversation, along with Bangstick, I had to turn to the Urban Dictionary to find the film reference.  Really must stay in more - no, wait, that's been sorted for me :popcorn:(and many of the rest of the population).

Broomstick, broomstick. He's a great fan of Quidditch.

He is not. Brooms are evil, shlong-shaped subconscious patriarchal symbols of inequality. Look up Freud and Fromm. Boomstick, on the other hand (pun unintended)....

Is that when the forces of Washington and Trump rammed the ramparts and stormed the airports? Great days! I remember them well.

Hi all,

here's an oldie (almost 50 yo) straight from WoT, where I have 10+k battles and just wanted to take a break here in the skies.

 

Immediately bought He 111 H-2 Prem, as I plan to slowly work and learn my way up the Bombers tier.

Why bombers, because I've been impressed with these beasts for ages, and why this line: this Tier IV Prem looks like good value for money and it seems to be a classic, hi-alt bomber to push me a few credits more.

 

Don't plan to have a whole fleet of various planes in WoWP (WoT is main game after all, lol) but am looking forward seeing you in the skies!

Hello and welcome. Make yourself comfortable. Get yourself a full squadron in your hangar and stick around!!!
