The German forces achieved neither at any point during the war. Īs a precondition for the invasion of Britain, Hitler demanded both air and naval superiority over the English Channel and the proposed landing sites. He considered invasion a last resort, to be used only if all other options had failed. Following the Battle of France and that country's capitulation, Adolf Hitler, the German Führer and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, hoped the British government would accept his offer to end the war. It was to have taken place during the Battle of Britain, nine months after the start of the Second World War. No, you pretty much got it right and it was a much simpler concept for it as you didn't have to keep swapping the production of tanks.Operation Sea Lion, also written as Operation Sealion ( German: Unternehmen Seelöwe), was Nazi Germany's code name for their planned invasion of the United Kingdom. I really don't see what is so difficult about that as a concept. You had to pay to build the new brigades which then 'upgraded' the old unit. It just simplified it, it didn't somehow make it less realistic by turning Pz4's into King Tigers.

The unit became unusuable as old tanks were shipped out, and new units (which you had to pay for and build) were sent in. I'm not sure how people are missing this, but HOI3 didn't 'magically' upgrade tanks. I'm going to repeat myself slowly so I can be understood. If anything the HoI IV system is more realistic considering you're producing newer models and sending old ones into a reserve stockpile, whereas in III you would use magical IC to upgrade an outdated tank into a brand spankin new one. The old equipment doesn't disappear, it goes back to the stockpile. Originally posted by proot:You do realize your outdated tanks don't 'magically' change into better ones? As you produce newer models of equipment, the divisions using it will start replacing old with new.
