Re: and now wants the french foreign legion for Birakeim

Surely Colonial Vichy French would be a better choice that FFI as there a lot more of them and would be good to go against the Strelet Indian and South African troops. There is also the Franco-Thai war as well and Operation torch.

There seems to be a mythology about de Gaulle and the free French that Frenchmen flocked to his colours. Certainly, in Syria when Vichy troops were give the chance to joined the free French they insisted on being sent back to France!

As Churchill said the hardest cross he had to bear was the cross of Lorraine

I would also like to see French troops for the desert but I'm very happy with these Indians. I've been toying with the idea of doing desert stuff for a while and these guys will be enough to make me actually do it. Always to be able to use M3 Grants.
