Definitely historically accurate that the Italians in the immediate aftermath of WW1 used armored cars and tanks to great effect in Libya. The big reason why armored cars in WW1 were not as useful as they might have otherwise been is largely due to the terrain - between no-man's land being full of obstacles, craters, and mud, and maneuvering over the trenches themselves, armored cars couldn't use their mobility to full effect. They saw some use in the Middle East and Eastern Front, though, where trench warfare was less intensive.

While it's unlikely that Julian could have, all by his lonesome, reversed the tide of Christianity, I think it's fair to say that the big pagan reformer getting merked before he could fully implement his reforms was at least a moderate boon to Christians.

Yes, but the Koreans had cannons. Gunpowder was a bit of a game-changer in that regard.
