@Gargantua:
It is ENTIRELY POSSIBLE.
Spend all of your money on tech, hope that you get paratroopers, you can make it from west germany, use all of your planes.
you have like a 2% chance to suceed.
Paratroopers cannot attack without a concurrent land or amphibious assault. So no. It’s completely impossible to capture the UK on G1.
“3. Paratroopers. Up to 2 of your infantry units in each territory with an air base can be moved to an enemy controlled territory 3 or fewer spaces away that is being attacked by your land units from adjacent territories and/or by amphibious assault. If the territory attacked has an antiaircraft gun, the paratrooper infantry units are subject to antiaircraft fire in the same way as air units. If attacking along with land units from adjacent territories, paratroopers may retreat as normal.”
