It was never likely an invasion of Britian would take place, after the Norway debacle the German High Command were loathed to launch any sea invasion.



At sea the invasion of Norway proved a significant setback. For the Kriegsmarine the campaign led to crippling losses, leaving the Kriegsmarine with a surface force of one heavy cruiser, two light cruisers and four destroyers operational. This left the navy weakened during the summer months when Hitler was pursuing plans for an invasion of Britain...

Default and History repeats...

We lost Britain, lets move forward to Moscow...

There is some déjà vu in it.

Salutes.

Default Beta Patch???

Seem to have gone OFF TOPIC here. Question is - where is the Beta patch?

I'm falling in the OT trap ... but Lord Halifax literally trembled at the idea of taking over from Neville Chamberlain, he had psychosomatic troubles when he was asked to give his availability to be the British PM.
Indeed, Churchill was chosen upon Chamberlain's indication, after the repeated refusals of Halifax. It seems very unlikely that Halifax would have been available in May 1940, when Britain was well into the thick of the frail. And as far as an appeasement, I'm sure that neither the royal family nor the Britons would have accepted a brutal diminishment of their Empire, influence and wealth, the logical consequence of a reddition to German expansion.

Cheers!
