In History vs. Hollywood there was a guy who was there and said that didn’t happen. He said Patton would have done that but the planes were gone to fast. The part where the UK air marshall says they have complete air superiority and they get attacked by planes is true.
Yea, I was thinking of a Battleship/Aircraft Carrier R1 Build with Germany. Maybe an 8 IPC bid for a second Transport in SZ 5.
As for invading England, really wasn’t thinking along those lines. I was thinking of a fleet big enough to stop any Navy from building up by the allies so 100% of Germany can go for Russia leaving W. Europe and S. Europe and Africa mostly undefended.
To clarify Triforce’s point, you would have to attack ONLY with fighters and bombers to have that option. Therein lies the trick with strafing. Overstrafing is usually worse than not strafing at all, and sometimes it’s gonna happen.
It is indeed moot because of LHTR, but it was precisely this move that inspired LHTR. It’s dumb for a game to be decided in less time it takes to set it up, and it’s also dumb to lose your capital before you even made a move.
Actually, this was the move that inspired Caspian Sub, and you’ve pretty much quoted their rules paper without crediting it.Â
