0924_01 Sealion in Sept - Short (24 Sept - 10 Oct)_Alt - PzC 18 Sealion 40

SE England, Sept 24th 1940: In June 1940, after defeating the best Europe could offer, Germany massed its troops ready to cross the English Channel. The historical course of events led to Hitler never taking the gamble to utilize 'Operation Sealion', the actual plan to take England. Generally speaking there are 2 theories for the landings to have taken place. This September scenario uses the historical landing plan: 0600 Assault Boats; 0800 Barges towed by Assault Boats; 1000-1200 Barges towed by Transports; 1800-2000 1st load from Transports; 0800-1000 (S+1) 2nd load from Transports; 2000-2200 (S+1) 3rd load from Transports; 0800-1000 (S+2) 4th load from Transports; the 5th load from Transports consists of Divisional Services as does the Assault Boats that return on S+4; the Transport round trips arrive every 4 days, which was optimistic, and thus the follow-up reinforcements are set arrive on S+5, S+9, S+13, S+17, S+21, and S+25.
