Status: offline 		I was just wondering if anyone was working on any hypothetical scenerios for Operation Sealion. I was just curious, as far as I could tell, I am probably wrong here, but I have not noticed any scenerios on the topic. Thanks

Status: offline 		thats a great idea for a scenario. I've done german amphib assaults via the battlemaker, 9-40. A whole campaign to take england (imagine the battle for london) is taking it one step further. Could be interesting.

Status: offline 		No one in our group PRZY! I hope you will do it. I think it would make an excellent scenario and an even better campaign, invading England and moving toward London. I like that idea, but I won't touch it if you are gonna do it! Let us know Wild Bill ------------------ In Arduis Fidelis Wild Bill Wilder Coordinator, Scenario Design Matrix Games

Status: offline 		I'm trying to find the time to work on a campaign in this area, but I don't have a lot of hard data to use for mapping. My thought was of a campaign based loosely on the descriptions in Kenneth Macksey's book Invasion, though I think some adjustments would have to be made to keep the scenarios interesting.

Status: offline 		i remember seeing a documentary and it mentioned that regular brit folks were being trained for a homeguard. perhaps these could be represented by partisan type if making a new unit isn't possible. also, the brits had a type of anti-landing obstacle which basically turned the shoreline into a big ball of flame.

Status: offline 		I am currently reading the book INVASION, and I'm surprised by difference in men and material the German plan to use as opposed to what the Allies actually used. If anyone wants me to scan the maps or anything, just let me know.
