    What does it take to impress you? To what would you assign their disturbing success?

    Meth chocolate, fascism, and taking on armies using WWI tech and tactics

        I guess they were a bit better than France when it came to how to use tanks and the whole “allowing leaders on the ground to take the initiative” but that’s about it.

        Yup, biggest thing is that their attack, though expected by quite a few powers, came out of left field and add in the rushing forward on armies still using cavalry units and the early massive land grab via Germany makes sense
