@General-Hicks I have only seen France’s capital survive Germany’s attack a handful of times. On one occasion I was the French player and I decided to move the fighter from London and all of my units in Southern France to Paris. In addition, the United Kingdom flew in two fighters. Unfortunately, this was unsuccessful because the Italian player threw every unit they could at France and took it, albeit with substantial casualties. Based on my experience, I would only recommend placing fighters in France’s capital if the French still have a healthy number of ground units present. There would have to be at least 3-4 for me to even consider it.

@WindowWasher I do this every single time that I play Germany and it has never failed me. I typically leave both Holland and Normandy completely open and instead heavily fortify Western Germany, Denmark and France with Italian and Germany units. This allows the allies to secure a few extra IPC’s, but at the cost of poor positioning in the long run.
