- Give UK less income in 1939 and early 1940 but then increase it mid 1940
- Freeze or require more units in Egypt/England so the UK can't send so many to France
- Have UK units added later in summer 1940 like the armor in Egypt to avoid it being sent to France
- Weaken France instead of UK by say decreasing their land/air morale by say 5 points
And thing I thought of (not sure how hard this would be to implement though) is preventing Allied units from being along the Belgium border until Germany DoW on Belgium. This helps to push the Allies towards historical play of defending the Maginot Line and avoid having lots of units ready for Germany's blitzkrieg through Belgium.
#1 Can't give them less income. It is pretty balanced right now. It is about forcing them to expend elsewhere. What I said about U-boats we just for the initial ones on the map, not permanent default experience. 1939 was the most effective year of the u-boat throughout the war. So few uboats did so much damage.
#2 This is why i am letting Italy in early.
#3 That's tough. The UK did have 2 armor divisions at the time. #2 should be enough to correct things. I am also trying not to hinder players unnaturally.
#4 Air yes, Land no. They are already as crappy as the Italians. I was thinking of lowering their operation points to 4 representing the crappy communications.
As for Belgium, the Allies did line up on Belgium. That is why they got caught in the encirclement.
