Bring loads of AAA. France loves to build hundreds of air units.

[Tioz]

For the France Problem: Destroy the airfields with cruise missals or with u-boat launched high air missals


The the 20mil civilians: Never user direct(targeting units) of the Artillery. If the units stand in a city this will cause massive casualties. Always use indirect fire, just move the Artillery near the city an let them shoot automatically. This will cause a lot less deaths if i remember me correct.


Danke übrigens für diesen coolen AAR, hat mich richtig heiß gemacht auch mal als Deutschland zu spielen
