It is said that Prince George, Duke of Clarence, being the brother of King Edward IV, was allowed to choose the manner of his own execution and opted to be drowned in a barrel of Madeira. How would you choose to be executed?

Will the children of Grand Duke George Mikhailovich and his wife have legitimate claim to the Russian throne?

Asking this because i heard their marriage was morganatic, and that usually means their children wouldn't be legitimate heirs. But i don't know how that works on the Russian dinasty. Also if their children won't be legitimate heirs, then i don't think Maria Vladimirovna would allow the marriage as he is her only son and that would put her dinasty at risk.

I'm confused so i need explanations from people who understeand this stuff lol

King George V and Duke of York -- Review and Analysis

HMS Duke of York is a tier 7 British premium battleship with a pair of smokescreens. She is the sister ship of HMS King George V, so this review will cover both ships. These vessels are very odd, with a strange array of weaponry and a peculiar stat setup. Some people will really like this playstyle, but other people really won’t.

Note that Duke of York, as a premium, has increased silver earnings and can equip any commander without specialization. KGV does not have these perks.

……………………………………………………………………………………

MY STATS:

Hey neat, matching battle count! For the longest time, Duke of York was strictly weaker than King George V, which explains the marginally worse stats. In terms of performance the two ships are nearly identical now.

……………………………………………………………………………………

RECOMMENDED BUILD:

Slot 1: Turret traverse (+20%)
Slot 2: Acceleration (+20%)

Slot 3: Concealment (+10%) OR Rudder shift (+15%)

Elite Bonus: Bulkhead Upgrade

KGV does not have great picks for her elite bonus. I suggest taking Bulkhead upgrade for the extra HP, as the other bonus yields nothing but extremely minor boosts to your damage reduction. Adding more HP (which also increases your heal performance) is the best bet. Still though, it’s disappointing that no gun upgrade is present.

……………………………………………………………………………………

It's a pretty uninspiring statpage. You'll need to combine her strengths to perform well.

…………………………………………………………………………………….

FIREPOWER:
Duke of York and KGV boast an unconventional array of 10x 356mm guns, with somewhat appalling firing arcs. The immediate thing people will notice is that these are not high-performance weapons. Shell damage is low, penetration is mediocre, and ballistics are sluggish. These guns boast decent dispersion and 2 sigma, which helps. But good aim at weakpoints (deck and turrets) will be needed to make these guns work. The presence of Rapid Reload 1 adds some burst DPM when used, but this consumable is not very notable and does not propel these guns to stardom. Being small-caliber, both ships reload slightly faster than many of their tier-mates, but they have comparatively short firing range, specifically in DoY’s case.

Both ships start battl

POD: Prince Albert aka The Duke of York gives up smoking at the advice of his therapist, Lionel Logue. Because of this George VI doesn't die in 1952 and reminds King of England which also means that his wife doesn't become a widow & reminds Queen.

How does a longer living King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon impact both the United Kingdom and the world in the decades since?

Also because His Majesty gives up smoking, I feel that butterflies would exist in the TL that would lead to Lionel Logue still living as well.

Ideally, this AU scenario would end with both George VI and his beloved wife both passing away in their sleep on March,30,2002. [In OTL, this was the date that the Queen Mother passed away.]

The world in which George Bailey doesn't exist in [It's A Wonderful Life] is an already-existing universe. It was not an illusion fabricated by Clarence.

After Clarence and George are ejected from Nick's bar, the scene lingers on the bar. We see Nick make his joke about giving out angel's wings every time he closes the cash register drawer.

If this world without George was just an illusion created by Clarence for George's benefit, then there shouldn't be any events in that world to which George is not witness. So this moment in Nick's bar that neither George or Clarence saw suggests that this world is populated by real people.
