They would have invaded where the territory London is in. London is actually pretty easy to get to. If the Germans had a bunch of troops they could have landed, paradrop soldiers in London, then have the landing forces come and get rid the rest of the forces in maybe a couple days.

Would have. It would seem you know that Hitler abandoned Operation Sea Lion. So, aptly, the map does not have the Germans carrying it out.

Yeah i play a game called Third Reich. Its the most sophisticated board game ever. Its WWII and there's so many unhistorical calls you can make. Like this actually happened in one game.
German invasion of Britain and then occupation of London. British dont surrender for 2 years and America comes and kicks German but back to France.
Allied invasion of Hokaido and Spain.
No Normandy.
Russian attacking Germany and winning the game in the first year of conflict.
China owning China, French Indo China, and Manchuria(Korea)
Italians conquering Jerusalem

Those are all that happened. Not ones that could happen. Greatest game ever.

WWII Europe - small error

Don't realluy know where to post thus but here... in the WWII Europe map there is an area called: "Keserling". The correct spelling should be "Kesselring" though.

Got this map on random. Britain is totally overpowered and ruins the game. One player took it on turn one and now he can't lose. You basically have to hope that someone is bad enough to weaken their own position keeping that person in check. Spending your troops just to hurt one player and not help yourself is mostly bad.

quert (the mapmaker) is notorious for not making changes to his quenched map, and he doesn't even post in the foundry any more.
This isn't going to be changed, I'm afraid.

He means qwert...

And not only is it not going to change, there's not really a reason to change it. The map is just fine as it is.

This map is in no way "just fine as it is". I think Germany might be an even more overpowered position than Britain in further exploration of the game, but the map is severely unbalanced regardless.
