Attack Normandy (1 inf 1 art) with inf and tank fr Holland, 1 mech fr W Germany1 tac fr E Germany

I made a mistake there was not supposed to be a tac bomber rolling in Normandy.  This happened because rather than re-type my Germany opening, I saved it in a word document; however, I tweak details from time to time – but I forgot to remove the tac bomber from the Normandy attack.

Attack Normandy (1 inf 1 art) with inf and tank fr Holland, 1 mech fr W Germany1 tac fr E Germany

So after two rounds of attacking in Normandy, my 5 infantry shots and 2 tanks shots haven’t hit once, and 3 out of 4 of your shots at 2 have hit.

I am not going to risk my tank against an infantry and artillery.

I actually am supposed to have 94% odds of taking Normandy with 3 mech/inf and 1 tank.

I will probably NOT go for sea lion because my only failed attempt in alpha 3 is with a 12 transport attack.  The odds of a successful attack with 12 transports is usually about 80%, but I distrust the dice too much to go for an amphib attack with those kind of odds – especially one where I basically lose the war if I lose the battle.  Don’t know if you want to play this out, but I’m probably going Barbarossa

Paris taken with 4 tanks (that usually go that badly either)

Germany collects 68 ipcs

Germany 1.AAM

there was a mech instead of a tac bomber attacking Normandy.

the fact that I brought two mechs can be seen by the fact that there is 4 mechs in total on the board, and only 2 went to Paris.

The problem with bringing 1 artillery, 2 inf and 1 tank to Normandy, although it does raise the Normandy odds to 97% from 94%, it reduces the odds in Paris to 94% from 96%.  Since not taking Paris is a bigger problem for sea lion than not taking Normandy, I try to make sure that I take Paris.

Remember, I am still willing to play under those circumstances, I just go Barbarossa instead.

Well, yeah if you’re not going to max defend england I’ll take a look at what you do first.
