and they are winning. Despite the efficiency of the attackers being a small fraction of a single percent, my defenders are losing org at a faster rate. I've had to reinforce it now with 7 divisions and I'm still not certain they will be able to hold. The UK is nearing 80k casualties at this point... All for alesund over in norway (which has coastal forts IIRC). The command limit for the attacking army is 18, too...

edit: Right now I'm trying to stop this madness with naval bombers but they have over 40 transports plus a significant escort force and despite taking out 1-3 ships per bombing mission its not looking to be helping anytime soon

Deploy your troops around that provinces while keep fighting on the beach. When you have enough troops retreat and let them in then DESTROY THEM.

Also NAV is not the only way to bomb those ships. You can also use TAC or CAS to do the job

I conducted an amphibious assault to Britain with 8 armoured and 12 Motorized divisions as Russia, and won the battle. Who says tanks are useless in landings? :)

Strategy for winning a war

1- Find enemy
2- Kill him

See? I´m better than Napoleon. :)

Seriously is it such a bad thing if they land? Are you playing on Very Hard or a mod? Because if it´s Normal DH I would let them land and surround their units.
