RE: German fighters over Britain

<t> I often think germany lost the war because of the lousy range of their early fighters. I think they had 10-15 min over london, it's not far to drive, no real development of drop tanks. I remember reading about a wooden prototype.<br/>

RE: Is Sealion feasible?

<t> The big reason why it's feasable is that the computer will leave like 2-3 guys in the UK but 10+- infantry in Egypt.<br/>

Try sealion VS 10 infantry. Yikes.<br/>
