re: #96 Aunty Entity Dragon
I am constantly annoyed by British crowing over their “strategic victory” at Jutland. All they got was 3 of their own battlecruisers blown out of the water and a resumption of a stand-off with the High Seas Fleet.
Just one last thought - a bottled up fleet can not play merchant raider against the convoys. The lack of any real response by the High Seas Fleet for 2 long years fed straight into the starvation of the German population. They never had the resources - Act one or Act two of the World War - to win against more than one relatively weak opponent.
