Declaration Of War. In this case, I would have thought it meant 'declared war on'.

I had a French guy cuss me out the other day, apparently they think you are patronizing them if you don't know their language and try to speak it.

You should have asked him, "Where was all that French spirit in WWII?"

[maverick_76]

I think he was Canadian French.

Wasn't it Ted Nugent who said, "The only thing worse than a frenchman is a French Canadian"

[maverick_76]

Not sure, his Canadian friend that was with him said, "Not only is he French, he's angry French!" I just laughed because I think it was a moment of lost in translation, no offense was taken by me at least.

I wish I was like that, unfortunately when someone starts yelling at me, their life is in danger.

[maverick_76]

Well lets just say it might have been different if I actually understood what he was saying. But since I didn't, so what do I care about what he calls me in another language?

[Brain Damaged]

Well in any case you definitely did the right thing.

[Adlertag]

well in any case you definitely got off topic

Okay about the topic of Germany invading England........ Where were we?

It would have worked if he wasnt fighting a two front war. IF russia isnt a problem I think you can take out england.

I think a Sea Lion attempt may still come down to who gets control of the French fleet. If it stays w/allies, if it is scuttled, or if Germany has a chance to take part of it over. If the axis (and thats a big if) gets naval superiority in the Atlantic (remember US isn't there yet). If Italy can take out Gilb through Spain or by amphib allowing its fleet access to the Atlantic. Axis should be able to add to its fleet in the Atlantic via French IC on the coast. Germany should also have its own coast line to the North Sea if the map is to be accurate. Of coarse a full scale Sea Lion will leave Italy weaker in Africa and the Balkans. It will also allow Russia time to bulk up. Taking out the UK early would defiantly set the allies back. It would be some time before what was left of Britain & France could come together and make a liberation attempt if at all. They may have to wait until the US enters the war. I would think that a successful Sea Lion would bring the US into the war.

Taking out UK would also set the Allies back.
