Amphibious Invasion

Post by amtrick »

Anybody got tips/experience in trying to invade England? I've got France and Russia out of the game, but can't figure out how to get an army into England. Keep getting lonely, unsupplied units on the coast that get crushed by these fresh, full strengths units that tend to simply appear in whatever (previously vacant) city I try to land near.

Who has done this successfully and how?

A good place to start is page 58 of the game manual on Supply, you will discover what you are not doing there.

After I was reminded by "operating" to RTFM (thank you), I was able to supply amphibious invasions on the beach (keep a surface ship next to the unit) and knock Great Britain out of the war.

"RTFM", has a nice ring to it[:D]....
