Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A military-history project changes one decision in a real battle, simulates the alternate outcome 1,000 times, and turns the likeliest result into a book.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-17 issue.
For
Military-history and alternate-history readers
Worth noticing
The homepage says simulations use seed 42 so anyone can rerun them, and explicitly calls the results model outputs, not prophecy.

Field notes

The stated workflow starts with a real battle, changes one commander’s decision, and uses 1,000 Monte Carlo runs with seed 42 before selecting the most likely alternate outcome for a book. The homepage lists more than 100 battles and says reader requests will help determine what gets written next; it lists Kindle editions at $4.99 and mentions Substack serialization.
