This is a classic example of the dynamic play in WW2 Diplo. Be sure to have your coffie as this took well over an hour to finish. And it ends with my 4th defeat in that game with everyone turning on me.
Granted I wasn't the first powerhouse but it was epic.
I was Great Britian, and was planning something. France at this time was a total powerhouse. When I saw France prepairing for a landing on me I took the decision to declare war, and I destroyed his landing force.
Then came the critical battle. His navy wasy 3x my size, heavy in battleships. Mine had a few capitals but also 6 Fleet Carriers. I also owned both Great Britian and Ireland so he would have to force a passage. And of course I had also fortified Ireland and GB as well in the southern regions in order to make it a hard task for a navy to break it.
So we fight at the choke and capital ships held off his fleet long enough for my carriers to win the day. Libya saw this and took advantage of it to attack France in the east. I forced a landing in north-west France and met up with Libya's armies.. but this is only fraction of the story that ends not in my victory, but in my defeat. You will have to watch the replay for the rest.
Lets see if i can attach this... NVM here is a link:
