What If? Operation Sea Lion
While the video doesn't talk about the contribution Fifth Columnist groups like the British Union of Fascists could have made towards a German landing in Britain (I don't think it's even been included in official government-run wargames, so I think it might have been incredibly negligible to outright impossible), it does show that, by and large, Unternehmen Seelöwe would have been a failure right across the board for the Nazis.
Makes for a very interesting wargaming situation though.
hey moots (and other interested parties)
I HAVE HAD AN IDEA!
you see, i have a great knowledge of history on random and esoteric topics
and i am going to go on rants for your entertainment (and mine) from this point out
if you have any specific topics you're curious about, or things that you want to know my unhinged historical takes on, chuck them at me as an ask or as a note here and i will endevour to go on a rant about them
upcoming topic ideas that i will probably get through:
Why were the spartans actually just shit at everything (except hoplites, kinda)
Why was operation sealion literally the stupidest idea anyone ever came up with (hint: the North Sea is singing Rule Brittania)
Why do i love boats so much in literally all of history (and is it just because i'm british)
Battleships vs Carriers, what is better, under what circumstance, and why do i think battleships are just objectively cooler (because they are, fuck you)
is it going to be well researched? probably not is it going to be historically accurate? i will do my best am i going to be correct about everything? no i am a history student powered by an incredible level of autism, that is beyond my power
I am going to tag them all with #alt's history rants time to make it easier for me to find them (and anyone else to find them if they want to)
Tough! Tense! Terrific! Words I could use to describe myself but which also apply to Battle Action Force dated 1 September 1984.
Cover by Geoff Campion who also drew the interior 'Operation Sealion' strip (written by Gerry Finley-Day). Red Laser not too happy with Q-Force's underwater meddling in his nefarious activities.

War Stories: Operation Sealion - Pavel Zayats
Scratch-built German invasion barge for Bolt Action Operation Sea Lion (with a Soviet KV2 for scale because it's the only tank I had to hand haha). I based it roughly on the MDF barge that Sarissa Precision make. It's a bit of a shame that it took me so long to build it that I never got to use it for the summer campaign :P The main structure of the barge is foamcore to which I then glued thin card. The front ramps are wide lolly sticks (about 20mm wide) that I glued a fabric net to and then card. They're removable, and the small opening at the front is hinged with a bamboo skewer and a magnet to keep it closed. As with all my stuff, I may have gone a bit OTT with the rust but I'm super chuffed with it! Hope you all like it!
