Achtung! Luftwaffe vor !

Luftwaffe 1946 Ted Nomura's alternate WW2 masterpiece !

As alternate histories go, look no further. This painstakingly research story about a ww2 that happens differently. The biggest change? Hermann Göring dies in WW1 and VonRitter is in charge of the Luftwaffe, so jets are widely available by 1943,and the long range bomber project is not canceled. Ted Nomaura is a huge fan of the German X-planes. The war still ends with an Allies victory it just lasts til Aug. 1946.

There is a small bit of Aliens (called Thules) in one book. The author tho' tries to keep all the x-planes and tech. to thing the Germans and other powers had on the drawing board,but just didn't have time develop. This is why they war just lasts a year and a half longer,but the Allies still win. One ending (of the three different ones) has Hannah Reich fly the Sanger orbital bomber (which was real)into orbit, it misfires and she ends up leaving earth and flies towards the moon. The Germans did have a death ray program called "project Odin bolt". It is in one the tech. manuals ;)

	Man, I'd be typing all day. I have very varied interests that shift back and forth in degree. My real problem is finding just ONE thing I'm interested in and sticking with it. (Reply to this) (Parent)
