Hi all im involved in a PBEM game as the Axis upon taking the TO start operation Weseruebung i invaded Denmark and with my Airborne forces and a seaborne assault captured Oslo and landed at Kristiansand my opponent then blockaded the Denmark straight with the entire Royal Navy and French navy to cover this the entire RAF fighter command was moved to Norway which basicaly negated any Luftwaffe attacks on the allied naval units so the blockade continued my opponent moved British and French land units to Norway to contest the invasion my problem with this is 1. surely the Denmark straight was mined and german u boats would be presant so the Allied navies would not and did not operate there.
2. Deploying the entire RAF to Norway is fantasy?? I think the RAF deployed 1 squadron of obsolete Gloster Gladiator fighters which ran out of fuel and were withdrawn to England after one sortie as they could not be resupplied.
Also the battle for France is on my opponent took TO extend Maginot line which proved hard to breach anyway im through their now but im encountering British and Commonwealth units from the middle east and the Iraq/Persia command eg Army of the Nile 8th Inf Div 31st Indian Armd Div and maybe others im aware that thwere are no house rules covering these actions but i belive these actions are a bit gamey maybe there should be a house rule to prevent these units being used in Europe until certain conditions are met like with the French Colonial forces in North Africa what say you????
