Suspension of disbelief does not excuse poor logic or planning (see DC post-Hawkworld pre-Zero Hour Hawkman for cast in point as well as Marvel's Spider Clone saga).

Given what we know about Stalin does it make sence for him to explode an atom bomb what would seem to generate an 'magic field' Antartica? No.

Does it make sence for demons to 'appear' in the Nevada Test Site when in the Technomancer Timeline there is no such place? No.

Does killing off the acting cast of The Conqueror (1956) mean that the movie industury on Merlin is going to go a different path? You bet your sweet projector it does. Valley of the Dolls (1967), Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970), and The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) all had actors who originally starred in The Conqueror in supporting roles. Then you have people like Norman S. Powell (an uncredited mongel guard) who becamse directors and producers in their own right. Without Powell there is no "Johnny Ringo" (1959) TV Series, The Big Valley series never is made, as is the 1985 revival of "The Twilight Zone".

And yet were are told that unless otherwise stated things happened as they did in our world. This makes less sence than the White Knight in Alice through the Looking Glass. I am wonder where the play tester were on this one (And Madlands)
