Alternative History GB, part.1: "What if..."

Swanny's depiction of a J7W2 Shinden gave me the idea to propose a series of Group Builds dedicated to 'Alternative History'.

(BTW, sorry to post an aircraft in here but it was a good example!)

I'm talking about a very loose GB here, stretching over a whole year maybe, so that people can join in as and when it pleases them, possibly after having been 'stimulated' by other 'what if' models posted here...

I'd like to propose a first Alternative History GB dedicated to 'What if the A-bombs had not been used over Japan'. This opens up a whole lot of possible scenarii, such as, of course, a landing or a series of landings by US/Allied forces in Japan, but also such as a Soviet invasion of Japan, a possible conflict between Allied and Soviet forces and the like.

Imagine J7W2 vs B-29, IS-3 vs M-18, P-80 vs Yak-15, but also the advanced introduction of many other weapon systems, some cancelled by the end of WWII others taking a bit more time to evolve and become operational: B-49 Flying Wing, Nuclear subs, MiG-15,....

Anyone else interested? This one would be organised over 2005.
