sealion invasion

  1. Sea Lion instead of Norway

    As many have argued, Sea Lion is inpossible for the Germans to carry out in 1940/41 due to man6 causes including the lose of German naval units during Norwegian operations. My question is, would the forces be arguably successful in landing on England’s east coast instead of Norway?
