Can't really be done even with a 1933 PoD. That allows the necessary structural changes to German capacity, but needs absolutely no response from the British as these occur. This will certainly not occur as the type of build up needed would be noticeable long enough in beforehand to alter policies and put in place counter measures. |

New question: We all know Operation Sea Lion could never work in @ and would require changes perhaps as far back as 1918 to have a decent chance. However, what sort of circumstances would be necessary to see Hitler attempting it in 1940? Starting assumptions are complete air supremacy over England (iffy enough but granted for the sake for argument), timeline of around September 1940, and Hitler overruling the objections of his generals. |

The Luftwaffe would need to put up a better show during 1940 and the Kriegsmarine would have to not be so roughly handled off Norway. There is a timeline on AH.com that uses the first idea as the very title. |
