What if?

"What if"...... one of the most asked questions throughout history! What if Germany hadn’t invaded the Soviet Union in 1941? What if the Allies had lost the Battle of Britain? What if there was no lend-lease act from the United States? Join us as we explore an alternative Second World War, where we examine all the possible “what if scenarios” — creating a counterfactual history that spans the entire war. To bring this to life, we have set up a Historical Wargame in which 30 participants take on the roles of leading the countries in the conflict. They will control war industries, make doctrinal and research decisions, and control the armed forces of the respective nations and see if their alternative strategy would have worked in this alternative reality We will go though the entire war, one theatre at the time and answer the question...What if! ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
