mikeadams Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 I am putting in an early request for a simulation of operation Sealion when the CM version based on the early years of the war is done. This is one of the great 'what if' s of WWII and should be an interesting scenario. BTW this has nothing to do with hamsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gyrene Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 If BTS decided to simulate a amphbious invasion that never happened and would probably never succeed before making a game based on real ones in the Pacific I'd completely give up on this game.

Enoch Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 Well, when BTS gets around to the early war years you can always use the scenerio and map editors to make your own Sealion battles. No need for BTS to have to do it. All the units will be there to make it happen if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L4Pilot Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 It depends on what you mean by a "simulation" of Operation Sealion. Can't see any reason why scenarios that involve conscript British (Home Guard) and equipment poor regulars come up against regular and veteran German units in the approriate terrain (though this may have to wait for CM4 for all these elements to be together in the same game.) If you mean German forces wading ashore across blazing oil covered beaches, my guess is that won't happen for the same reason that CMBO doesn't cover the beach landings of Overlord. But, even this might be moddable in the same way that some good mod's of beach terrain have become available. But I think that CMBB is uppemost on everyone's minds and will be the principle focus for the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maple Tree Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 If they were to model Operation Sealion the Germans would never make it to the British coastline.
