I'm disappointed... I didn't hear a single critique of my speculation on Germany attacking North America during WWII---

Actually I'm not disappointed, I kinda expected less from what I got considering that I was expecting a bunch of "You're crazy" and "f you" type deals. So just a total digression into anime entertains me. How about Outlaw Star, Trigun, and Cowboy Bebop... good shows all. I hear there is an Outlaw Star 2, I'd like to see it. I'm trying to figure out Trigun, still I'm a little confused on the ending, I wonder if there's a sequel there. And I love Cowboy Bebop, but they kinda screwed that pooch if they were wanting to make more episodes.

Cowboy Bebop is just fine as it is.

(But, I cannot be the only one thinking of this: prequel movie: How Jet And Spike Met Up And Bought The Bebop. OK, so you do not have half the cast, but I would watch it.)

I've been kind of busy.

You're crazy. F.U.

There you go. [Wink]

BTW: The thread title isn�t that much incorrect. "Sie kamen aus der Zukunft!" = "They came from the future!".

I mentioned that, but did anyone listen? No, noone listens... I feel like Zathras from B5...

No, I'm not German, my grandfather was... German is my second language (that doesn't mean that English is the first, it's the third).

At the moment, I'm of the opinion that if Germany had won the Battle of Britian they would have won the war. It would have been incredibly difficult for the Allies to gain a beachhead and then push back Rommel like they did without Britian still being a free nation.

The problem is, defeating the RAF in the Battle of Britain (which might have happened) wouldn't be enough, there was still the RN (well, the Home Fleet part of it) which outnumbered the KM by something like 4:1, IIRC. Crossing the channel would still be very difficult, and once the invasion troops have disembarked, there's still the problem of supplying them across the channel. Not to mention the resistance they would find on the islands. The ASBs could help by sinking the Home Fleet (or by giving the Germans death rays to do it), but supposedly they're trying to keep a low profile...
Now, try to imagine those problems in an even larger scale.

Saying that Pokemon is shit compared to Cowboy Bebop is like saying that Justice League is crap when compared to Smallville.

Also, you are such a fanboy.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

If Germany defeated the RAF the English Channel would be the German's to own. No amount of English naval power would be able to defeat German airpower. Remember, that too win the Battle of Britain, Germany would have to destroy the majority of the UK's air power--- including naval airpower [if they had any in the English Channel]. The next matter would be that without air support, any ship within the channel would be a sitting duck. On the same matter, German U-boats could protect the channel and allow a great deal of freedom for German operations between France and Britain.

Now the last matter of resistence, it wouldn't be too much of a concern to control the island, only to keep the UK from affecting Germany's future plans. If the UK has no airpower then they can be easily and repeatedly invaded, it doesn't matter if Germany makes any gains on the island, only that they begin to move around the island, cut it off from resupply. Destroy the UK's airpower, you cut off their one advantage to protect themselves. Slowly, with no airpower in Britain, Germany would be able to use U-boats and other vessels to cut off Britain from her supply ships, and the Royal Navy from their ports.

Doing that is enough to satisfy knocking Britain out of the war. For Germany to attack North America they do not need to stage their attack from the UK, France or Norway, or any other coast country will do--- it's more a matter of just clearing the way for a fleet of ships to go across the Atlantic and make a landing on Greenland to then launch an attack on North America--- Britain is in the way, but doesn't need to be put in submission for the plan to work.

Having neutralised the UK then (presumeably in 1940- early 1941), why would Germany then go on to invade the US? Unless the aliens persuaded them to, there would really be no reason. The two countries weren't at war and presumeably the Nazis would then turn their attention to their 'Lebensraum' in the East.
