This is a wild one. In may 40' instead of evacuating the Dunkirk Calais area, the allies pull back to a defensive position on the Zeebruge - Bruges - Ypres - st omer - montreil general line. The RAF is fully committed to keep sea lanes open and to forward deploy to prevent the LW from securing air supremacy. The French army rushes all it has across the med back home and goes double or nothing in first containing the Germans north of the abeville soissons general line and then counter attacking to link with the forces on the "bastion".
It's a gamble, and it requires the Brits and the French ( and, yes, the belgians too) to stick to their guns. Opinions? And can we leave the usual "supergermans vs hopelessly retarded allies cliches out for a few posts?
