Hello Sid, if I remeber well some LW general was hanged by the Yugolsavs for the Belgrade bombing while other LW officiers like Milch were sentenced to prison for their activity by the Nurnberg judges. Nothing strange. I would put a black ball in the box if I had had the opportunity to trial Bomber ...

Hello Sid, your argoument is correct on the logical ground, but not on the field. Durign the war there were always double standards (No Allied represail, at least, against USSR when she invaded Poland in Sept. 1939 for example). The general mood of the time was that the air war was not a global one,...

Hello Gentlemen, let me agree 100% with Sid about the fact that real life is quite different from a wargame and the effect the pocket BBs had on the British and French naval strategy in 1939/1940. Let me propose you, anyway, a further wargame style question. How much do you believe would have been e...

Hello Sid, everything you wrote about the area bombing ,atter is correct. indeed. Anyway I believe it's quite difficoult to negate the fact RAF had a doctrine since 1918 (Boom Trenchard Indipendent Air Force ect.) and that Britain was the only power to follow it. The British only ordeder, since 1935...

About the Jew extermination it's interesting to note that the large scale process, beyond the ...
