| Welcome to the Global Right Alliance's forums! Firstly, you can only see a very limited amount of the forums at the moment. You will be able to see the full forums and properly participate in our region and its community when you register. Join our Community Now, on to the region itself. Don't let the name, specifically the "Right", fool you. We've got members from across the political spectrum, and our political parties have always reflected this. The Global Right Alliance (GRA), as primarily a gameplay region, has been everything from an anarchy to a monarchy to a homegrown rotatorship. The region has had such governments because of its culture, which adores political intrigue and thrives on confrontation. With the increase of the region's population, many veterans have returned. It is the beginning of a new Global Right Alliance and a new government system. I know the forums can be quite intimidating; there's people who have been here for nearly a decade and have over 10,000 posts. However, we welcome new members and encourage them to get involved. If you want help finding your way around, we have resources to help you to get on your way. Getting Started If you're already a member please log in to your account to access all of our features. |

Umm... no. Hitler actually saw Britain as his natural allies. The only colonies under threat were in the far east and were under threat from Japan. |

((The colonies in the Far East were only under threat because the Americans effectively forced Britain to break it's alliance with Japan after the Washington conference. Had Britain not, and the attack had only been concentrated on Americas Asian colonies, America probably would not have won the war.)) Though that deserves a thread of it's own. |

Your knowledge of tactics and warfare are seriously lacking. The Battle of Britain was decisively won by Britain, it utterly destroyed German air supremecy and destroyed thousands of it's planes. Without air supremecy, the quick invasion tactics that the Germans needed to use to take over countries were much harder to implement. It's much harder to move an armoured company up a motorway if you are being continualy machine-gunned and bombed by aircraft. It is also much harder to mount a successful naval invasion when there are the same problems (IE some bugger blowing chunks out of your landing craft and naval boats). The whole point of the battle of Britain was that it displayed the necessity of winning the air war and maintaining air supremecy for a sucessful invasion. But then again, I know you are one of those people that thinks Hitler wanted to divide the world in half with the Japanese and meet in the midle of the USA. |

Fighter4u... Please look at a map of Europe... You will find that Britain is a island. How do you invade an island? Well you need to win the battle for channel (the sea) and the air. If you do not win the battle for the air you cannot viably launch a sea-based invasion. Durring the battle of britian the most elite airforce in the world (the Nazi Airforce) was pretty much destoryed. AKA - Hitler could not have invaded = why he changed his plans. After the battle of Britain the Nazi's no longer had that amazing airforce. If they had then Russia would have suffered immensely. Look at where the USA is on the map. Without britain it could not have realistically fought the Nazi's on even ground. They would have to sit back and allow them to take Europe... = The bulk of the war was won by Britain and its empire (and the resistances in mainland europe) |

Ok where did I say anything about the U.S?And divide the world with the Japs?Dup that just stupid. And second.Hitler never won because he didn't destroy the RAF.But Britan didn't win because they took such heavy losses and fail to destroy the German airforce.The Brtian barely hung on. The Brtian didn't win due to grander skill either. It was simply because the Lutwatt didn't timed it attacks to catch Brtian planes refueling on the ground or did different Lutwatt squardons time their attacks to hit at the same time. And Hitler didn't need full control of the air. The sea channel is pretty small. With the German airforce tieing up the RAF. The invasion would had worked. Then seeing that Brtian had shit all of a home army and a lack of communtions centers. It would had been pretty easy. |

il a tres stupide, non?
If that is so then why did he not do that? He had nearly a year in which Britain was the only major free allied power... And it's not that he didn;t have full control of the air its that he didn't have a reasonable airforce in the end... |
