Same map as Dunkirk and Battle of Britain

You can choose freely where you want to invade

Rivers made partially impassable, so that a few paratroopers can hold the bridges more easily and slow down reinforcements

Looks interesting, thanks.
Is this 1 vs 1? If so any chance of 2 vs 2 please?

Yeah. I can make it 2vs2 later if you want. Or even 2vs1 or 3vs1, if it's ok? I don't like to separate Germany into two. Normally 1 player means better coordination of units. But as you like

But it's not tested yet, so I might have to adjust resources, turn numbers etc first I think?

[McAuslin]

2 vs 2 would be good (in fact on all your scenarios) mainly because there are 4 of us that play together on OOB

Again, the unit balance limits are not enforced. But I have still left the text there to show how much the right balance should be.
If any one of the deployment zones are wrong, let me know. I had to go through each of them and assign them to different players, so I hope the UK won't accidentally have some deployment zone in France.

[McAuslin]

Thanks
We will play asap

With the 10 mines in total if you lay a minefield and then your engineers remove it does the total fielded drop? So I have 10, I remove 1 so I have 9, may I lay another or does the old total remain?

It's the total number of "deployed" mines. It does update as far as I know. So if mines get removed, you can deploy new ones again

[McAuslin]

Thanks, yes, the counter resets as minefields are removed by the mine layer. No idea if a minefield that is destroyed by enemy action does it tho.

Should be. "Deployed" simply means how many units there are in the game world. Not including reserve, destroyed and even planes inside airfields I think.

How is it going on? Is it balanced so far?

In v.1.2

- added some railways for German reinforcements
- finetuned the reinforcement mechanics for Germany
- made it impossible to invade Cherbourg and the Cote d'Albatre by sea. Now the allies have to land on the beaches, and advance onto the port at Cherboug and the airfield on the Cote d'Albatre by land, like it really happened

Thanks to Darkvador for testing!
