The Re-Invasion of Britain

My original story written all of those years ago, had a German invasion of Ulster, but they decided against an Invasion of the south, I had the Nazi Governement offer Ulster to the south if they agreed to join the war which they declined. The reasoning I had for Hitler not invading the south was the need for troops to inavde Russia.
By 1942, I had a Torch style Allied (US, Free British, European and Empire troops) landing on the west coast of Ireland, although the Eire Governemnt allowed them to land their was some fightning, but as I mentioned before the agreement, was that the south would take over Ulster, which was agreed.
I know the maps that I did of both the Ireland invasion in felt tip, and the British Invasion have long since been lost, but I think I can remember the basics of it as mentioned in a previous post earlier today. I will try and re-create them with google maps over the course of the weekend.
 
The thing to consider here is Sealion was quite impossible. So if handwavium makes that possible....a lot of other implausible things must be possible...A direct invasion from the US is a possibility.

Unlikely. Ireland had a relativley weak Army and any Operation Green coming from the North could easily have ben a very short,if very bloody,campaign. This would be more logical than having a country on the border of your Atlantic wall which has such strong relations with the US that its likely to gladly cooperate with any Torch-style invasion.

Just to reiterate, for this thread we assume that a different invasion plan, not Sealion, was developed by the Germans that had a good chance of success and for which they had prepared for by the outbreak of the war. Not Opertion Sealion.
 
German would either have to spend the next five years building their navy up, or somehow destroy the Channel Fleet with the Luftwaffe. Only way Sea Lion would work.
 
For the USA to invade Europe they need the UK, since that was the only territory that had the infrastucture and portage to allow a large enough flow of men armaments and supplies etc to flow and support a large enough invasion force plus support any follow on offensive across occupied Europe. The only other option is to support Russia and drive from the east.

But nothings impossible in real war.

It takes more than just plans. Sealion was a "good" plan, but the reality was that it was still impossible. The German Navy wasn't going to beat the British Navy anytime near the beginning of the war unless shipbuilding became a major focus for Hitler.
 
Could you have British sea power being destroyed, maybe by a butterflied US-German navy during WW1 but the CP still lose and the US then goees against Germany when hitler takes charge

No. If the US joins forces with the CP, they wouldn't lose. American manpower was what the Entente needed to win themselves.

US joining CP would butterfly WW2 away.

This suggests to me a 1914 POD, where Hitler's WW1 service is in the German Navy, not the German Army.
 
This means recourses are taken from the B-17, and given to the B-36.
Whe may also see more consideration given to that Iceberg-Airfield thingy.
 
This thread sounds so much like the plot to Resistance: Fall of Man, except the Chimeara are replaced with Germans :p
