For the past few months, I've seen this happen EVERY vanilla game that I've played:

I'd occasionally tag over to Germany to see what they're doing after they invade Poland and they end up doing everything they should be doing. They have patrols, convoy raiders, search and destroy, essentially every naval mission known to man going in either the Northeastern Sea or the Baltic Sea. I don't even understand how the Brits manage to get past that, but somehow they did. Maybe you guys at paradox could fix this along with the border shuffling next patch?

Anyways, thanks for your time,
-Karbinder

EDIT: This isn't just your average mini-invasion. This is Proto-D-Day.

These invasions when done against a human Germany are only a nuisance and end up being a blunder. I have seen 40+ British and French units die in that campaign which often results in holes in the line in France. Unfortunately, AI Germany is not nearly as proficient at countering that invasion.

This also happened in early versions of the game, 1.0 and 1.1.x. There was a bug involving convoys introduced in 1.2.0 which resulted among other things in avoiding these invasions. That bug was not corrected until 1.3.3.

Germany must garrison its Baltic ports at the start of the war. It is also advisable to take Denmark early on to seal the Baltic.
