    Description

    Shortly after Poland was conquered in 1939, Hitler begin urging an immediate attack in the West. The original plans were uninspiring and his generals feared an attritional stalemate. Over the winter the Germans keep taking the measure of their opponents and hit upon a plan was that inspired, risky, and utterly decisive. Ironic of Hitler to assume his remarkable success was simply the new template for all future campaigns. His eyes turned east....

    But, why, exactly did France fall? Against the Odds' 2015 annual features four top designers all tasked with re-examining the 1940 campaign and answering that very question. They’ve each settled on a single overriding theme to focus on.

    Springtime for Hitler explores the angle that the Germans at this time were quite simply indeed "supermen" at the top of their game. Possessing the best tactical air force, the best plans and doctrine, and well motivated by National-Socialist ideology, they were unstoppable. Or were they?
