Knowing how the Dardanelles, Narvik and Crete campaign went for the brits, this is Italy as they actually were OTL.

Allies actually won at Narvik, both at land and at sea, but invasion of France created a situation where Britain itself was threatened and the troops were evacuated orderly to Britain.

Wait till you see my next Vic3 video, gonna be a lot of failures in that one 🥲

[@anderarmould]

I love videos like this. The community can become so overly competitive you can completely forget that you can have a defensive Airforce instead of an offensive one and it still being fun. Even from Paradox' side there needs to be a stronger inclusion of asymmetric warfare like as Finland your entire army dissappears and advancing forces take MASSIVE attrition and CAS does almost nothing, with the catch being only your Special Forces can attack.

[@terribleplayer2526]

How is that fun for anyone invading Finland

the game doesnt need to be inherently 400% realistic at its core either. mods can do that but paradox kinda makes the game fun and semi realistic... not black ice realistic

[@simonnachreiner8380]

My sausage is rusty but from what I remember I'm guessing that this is roughly saying that the luftwaffa was split against multiple different fronts and worn down against multiple different air forces. Well the British American and Exhile air forces. Historically the Soviet Air Force got slaughtered by the luftwaffa and only managed to turn things around after it was reduced to middling pilots and only given enough fuel for interception duty.
