Germany 2
I really want to try Barbarossa someday soon, but you are entitled to your shot at stopping sea lion. I think I see what you are going to do (and that includes Russia), and I still think I’ve got decent odds, but nowhere close to 100% either on the defense of the fleet or the taking of London, so you certainly have a chance for this to work. There might be some things that I can do to save the fleet that would compromise the taking of London, but that doesn’t seem to make sense.
Here I go (big gulp) . . .
With 70 ipcs,
10 transports = 70 (building the ships instead of burning them, there’s no turning back once the armada is built)
Combat
Normally I would bomb London, but when I see battleships and cruisers being used as ship blockers, those look like great targets to me … .
