With Germany, I've mastered the land, it takes me days to conquer poland, baltics, france.
Africa/middle east is a breeze.
But I can't seem to invade the UK.

What worked in the past:
Invading Norway, loring the uk fleet to the english canal, then switching all air/naval forces to the sea between norway and english and invading the northern england.

Since the latest patch I fail to do so + trying to win by naval forces in the english canal just gets my navies destroyed (even with absurd air domination, nuking all british ports) - i can't seem to invade UK. never enough naval domination.

What am I doing wrong? Should I just try paradropping instead? sounds like a bad plan to me.

40M, had severe bulge between c5 and c6, narrowing of spinal cord (4mm out of 10mm normal width), no signal changes but evidence for mild myelopathy. I had troubles looking up, going up the stairs and had a lot of strong currents going through my arms. Medical massages had temporary relief of the symptoms for 24 hours but it always came back. CT and MRI confirmed the narrows and I got (world renowned) experts feedback that I should do ACDF. The bulge was central and massive.

I went to another surgeon that does endoscopy discectomy, he said that he could operate and could relive the pressure off the spinal cord. This was out of insurance, but the recovery process is extremely faster and there are no bodily modifications (no fusion or artificial discs inserted). This also means that there are no long term restrictions and I could still go to rollercoasters and waterslides without any limitations (for me, that matters).

After a 2 hours surgery (should have been 40 minutes but the bulge has been hardened so it took longer to remove) I stayed in the hospital for 4 more hours, then released home. No neck support needed, need some steroids and had some backup opiate subscribed but the DR said to only take it if I absolutely must (there was no need for it yet).

As I went out of the surgery, all current were completely gone, I had full range (well, almost) in my neck, I could look up but the muscles felt stiff.

Its now day 2: some numbness came back to my right hand, but no currents. I do have some muscle pain in my neck shoulders and hands, but it feels different, hard to explain.

I was instructed that I must rest completely for 2-3 weeks, after that I could resume daily routine.

in 1 month I can resume physical workouts

in 2-3 months I could do anything without restrictions.

I've heard horror stories about the ACDF recovery, and I wanted to show that there is a less invasive alternative. I am happy I chose this path.

If there is demand, I will update this thread.
