What alternate history would you like to see in game?

[BlumiereBleck]

Where Stonewall Jackson was never killed. Seriously if he had not died the war would have won in Southern Favor.

 

[Doctor What]

I'd like to see one where the dark ages never came around and society just kept advancing. Then, they would run out of resources and invade our world. Our modern world versus a world with a thousand year advance. SWEET.

The U.S. invade China. That or a steampunk alternate history of Britain would be nice.

The only problem I could see is the further back you change things, the less likely it is the future would remain close. If the Romans had conquered England, would America exist in a recognisable enough state to engage in war?[footnote]Please don't point out my ignorance of American history. I'm Australian, and even OUR history bores me to tears.[/footnote]

Of course, with narrative license, anything goes. Therefore, I wish to see an Australian superpower at war with the Viking empire. Simply because.

You mean if the Romans hadn't conquered England right?

OT: John Birmingham's Axis of Time series could be cool, basically a near future carrier group travels back in time and accidentally all but wipe out the US fleet steaming towards Midway. There are culture clashes and massive re-writes of history after the Axis and Stalin get their hands on history books and the 21st Century fleet including Germans and Japanese enter the war.

Same difference.

I think I must have gotten that from Asterix comics. As I said, I barely care about my own country's history.

A game where religion was never created and therefor there was no time period like the "Dark Ages". We could call it Utopia. It would be an RTS in which you built a city, and since science was allowed to advance instead of being halted there is no disease and very little crime. So after the city is built you just... hang out.

Wait a minute that doesn't sound right, where are my notes?

If Canada (Britain at the time really) had continued down into the states during the war of 1812 (where the US lost, just say'n)

 

[Eren Murtaugh]

I would love to see an alternate history where the Christians won the Crusades. THAT would be interesting...

erm they did :S

Kingdom of Jerusalem lasted 200 years

They never achieved their TRUE goal. Remember, they wanted to "recapture" the holy land, and remove Islam from the face of the Earth. They never really captured Jerusalem(I think you're thinking of the Holy Roman Empire) and they far from removed Islam from existance.

 

[Ashsaver]

It would be interesting to see an alternative earth where major countries like USA,Russia,China,etc are absent, left with only smaller nations to fight for world domination.

 

[ilspooner]

The present day when the dinos were never wiped out, and the main villian is mind controlling them and destroying everything, and you must ride around on your velociraptor and defeat the baddy. That would be fun.
EDIT: Top of the page woot

 

[AMCization]

Alt history where the British empire eventually took all/significant chunks of America, rather than being forced out of it...So I suppose a Code Geass game, minus all the mecha piloted by school children.

Just as I was thinking this I got to your post. Damn you

Umm. I guess I could go for a world where Germany didn't provoke Russia in WWII. Though that isn't really what you're asking. Maybe a long time ago, a galaxy far, far away drifted towards our own, and we were visited by Jedi... during say, the renaissance.

SteamPunk.In space. With Giant Lazor Robot Alien Spaceship for Epic Boss Fight.

Edit: Damn Ninjas.

Some good SteamPunk, which made me think of the idea.

[Digitaldreamer7]

I want to see a game where christians are treated like non-believers are now.
