A 1000 barges a day (on average) covers logistics.
Ceasar and Normy had no problem in 0AD, then 1066AD,
if ya wanna toss dates, (cutie pie).


And they brought how many motor vehicles with them?

Strangely, life has changed just a little since then...

Beach head is a problem, but German 88's could seriously
impair a Brit counter-attack,


At seven tons each, you're not going to get many 88s across. Nor are you
going to move them very far. And the shells are heavy, too: how do you
plan to keep the guns fed?

and once the Nazi's get a farmers
field to do Me-109's,


A farmer's field that grows 7.92mm and 20mm ammunition, and has aviation
fuel bubbling from a convenient spring? That's colonised by a tribe of
nomadic fitters and mechanics, who have spares and parts available?

If you don't have all of that, you don't have a base and you can't turn
aircraft around.

A few dozen farmers fields loading up with Me-109's, Stuka's.


Stukas. Okay, so you're also bringing bombs for them across and... what?
Hand-carrying them out of the barges, across the beaches, to the fields
where they get hung on the Stukas?

Hitler was more emotionally involved with strengthening the
Eastern front than attacking a ****y little island, as detailed
in Mein Kampf.


And see how much good it did him.

He thinks too much, such men are dangerous.
