In 1882, Jackie Fisher got seriously ill with dysentery and malaria. Let's assume that he dies. What are the knock-on effects?
Now, I think Dreadnought still gets built, but perhaps differently, and quite likely not the first.
However, no Fisher means that the 1905 purge of the Royal Navy Antiques Collection doesn't happen. For reference, under great controversy, Fisher scrapped or reserved over 150 RN vessels, and greatly modernized the fleet. No Fisher means this doesn't happen. Who was in line if not for Jackie, and what happens with the Fleet?
