    Battle of France campaign without the Mechelen incident?

    What would have happened if Germany hadn't advanced through the Ardennes?


    It seems like a considerable extension to the length of the Battle of France would have been likely... Although, it may be debatable:

    What do you guys think of another DLC which would expand the Battle of France? Feasible?

    What do you guys think about the history? Would things really have played out that differently?

    Doubt it. My dad fought as sergeant defending the Ockenburg airfield with men armed only with one shot ww1 rifles. There was one armored car present it seems, and the first landing Junkers 52 got shot to pieces on the only runway, causing the rest to crash in the surrounding mud lands. They 'won' this local Battle, so those nazi bastards bombed Rotterdam as revenge.

    PS: As such the queen and some friends got some respite and thus the nerve to pack beautie bags and wordily possessions and flee to the UK.

    I truly respect the Danish king, who stayed with his people when they were invaded; it was said that he saved a great number of Jews by calling that nasty nazi in Berlin every day inquiring about his nationals ... Our heroic queen played it safe from London, and so many Jews were sent to the gas chambers, transported out by our governmental owned National railway system. I never understood why she was welcomed back as hero after the Canadian, British, Polish, American, even Moroccan allies kicked the nazis out. Hopefully our present king has more guts when the Russians come. Joking; i doubt it, but we were threatened up today for that by our rulers with their NATO. In the course of history in Europe the Russian nation got run over by Mongols, Swedes, French, Turks, Germans ... they got more to fear from us, and the Russian people are nice and (according to Sting) love their children too. Although the EU is probably the cause for 75 years of peace. Alas: Brexit. New Irish troubles maybe since Boris doesn't want a backstop deal. J
