I just finished a game of CWII as CSA, and I'm still in the "aim for the capital" mode to bring about a decisive victory as fast as possible. I forget it's 50 years later with different technology and the war played out much different.
I like the idea of Warplan 20, since this keeps the fighting as far away from Paris as possible, assuming I can get into Belgium fast enough. I also assume Athena has a predilection to follow history and opts, more often than not, for an invasion through Belgium. Is this correct?

From 1915 on, it's a matter of brutal and sometimes futile attacks along the western front with the goal of reducing morale and increasing war weariness. In base game though, the trenches aren't sometimes enough to keep the lines as static as they were IRL.
