Line 32:
''<small>"What was once thought of as a faint hope has become a paradigm-shifting reality. Britannia, our old friend has come back to life, seeking to stand with the free world once more. But how Germany will emerge from the flames that still engulf Europe is a mystery, and with the status of the isles as the Pakt's Atlantic gateway, any move could turn ugly fast. While we can only hold our breath for now, we have to be ready for whatever happens next."</small>''
 
The '''Channel Crisis''' is a event that happens after the [[EnglishBritish Civil War]] if [[Her Majesty's Most Loyal Resistance]] (HMMLR) wins. [[Greater Germanic Reich|Germany]], Britain and the [[United States of America|USA]] all take part in the mechanic. It usually ends around Autumn 1964.

Line 42:
Germany will start it's mechanic one week after Britain is lost, the delay being due to the shock of the GCW, leading to any response and actioning taking a longer time.
 
To Germany, Britain is a key satellite to its geopolitical and military aims. Aside from its core doctrine of European hegemony and Britain’s strategic worth, the island controls the sole seaways from the Pakt to the world's oceans not completely dominated by the OFN. Germany can’t be seen as allowing its greatest enemy to undermine ‘Festung Europa’ or be swayed by the dissuasionary tactics of a force much smaller than them.
 
Even if the HMMLR does not do anything more to threaten Germany geopolitically, it is inherently unpredictable what a government either amicable to the OFN, or at the very least or run by "Bolsheviks" will do later on. There is no allowing such a risk to exist in an already important area in exchange for short-term distractions - the question is how Germany will regain influence over Great Britain, not if. That how being whether the Reich can afford to wait until the security crisis settles.
