Welcome! This is a collaborative site dedicated to critiquing the alternate history timeline Burnished Rows of Steel. It deals with a conflict betwen Britain and the United States over the boarding of the RMS Trent, also known as 'oh God, are you losers discussing that again?' We intend to update pretty regularly: however, if you have something you'd like to contribute to the site, we welcome both guest posts and guest authors. With almost a quarter of a million words in the timeline, and with errors ranging from simple anachronisms from fundamental errors in plotting, we're going to need all the help we can get...

If you're looking for somewhere to start, you might want to see how badly messed up the start of the story is. Alternatively, have a look at how 70% of the Canadian army was 'mislaid' somewhere along the line. Or, if you're looking for probabaly the most serious offense the timeline commits, see how it quotes sections from other books without crediting the authors.

Or, you know, check out whatever takes your fancy.
