I am not sold on the idea the Sea Lion in 1940 was ASB. While I understand that the Royal Navy would have strategic control of the North Sea and the Channel, there is little to stop the Germans from landing a force large enough to shock the British into accepting terms. Supply is not a major factor if the landing is force in July as the Germans are looking for a knock out blow early. They need food and ammunition for a week to ten days.
Yes I do mean July 1940. It would take few troops, possibly two divisions with air support and the Fallschirmjäger. Supply needs would be limited and would play on the British being disorganized.
Yes it is a gamble but one with more upsize than down. Thoughts?
