Comrade Trapp Posted June 3, 2005 Author Share Posted June 3, 2005 Allied Turn 10 - June 23rd, 1940 Overall, I believe the Battle of France went well for the Allies. It held out until June without any air or HQ support, and I was able to evacuate many French units. Right now, Great Britain is in a very good position defensively and will soon be able to take on the Luftwaffe in air-to-air combat. At this point in the game, neither side has clear advantage strategically. Kuniworth was not overly aggressive in France and thus, has not lost any units thus far (other than the subs). Definitely a good game so far. Allies hold Brest and have acquired Jets +1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
