I think what let the Axis side down was much more their high leadership they where idiots and forced bad decisions that their troops had to obey.The German solider,airman,sailor was very professional even at the very end of the war for the most part.

Take Stalingrad the original plan was to take the oil fields but Hitler had to take Stalingrad so he split an army to do so this was a stupid idea and cost them.You should never split your forces like this go after one target destroy it then go after the next.

Excuse my asking but how many should they have lost exactly?

Slaps knee,


Anyway enough of this let us all hear the ever so wise CaptainMattJ. He seems to be the smartest guy on subsim let us stop with our know nothingness and let him enlighten us all as to what went down in WWII.
Why would you say that. Because i gave my opinion on what wouldve happened if the U.S hadnt entered the war? I never once said you were wrong, and i never once said your speculations dont matter. im not showing off, im not acting like i know all, and im not being rude. i am highly interested in WWII, and i believe that theres truth behind some of what ive said.
