hans-micael Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 Anyone tried to evacuate the french army? What happens? Does france never surrender? Hans-Micael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norse Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 You can move the French air and land units to allied territory, and when France surrenders, they will fight on as Free French. With the fleet, I think there is something like 15% chance for any naval unit to join the Free French. Notice, that your French units must actually land on Commonwealth territory before France surrenders. If you still got them in their transports, then they surrender when France goes down. Some people have suggested that stalling the Germans alittle, and then massmoving the French to Britain is the way to go in this game. You can have 4 or 5 French armies, a HQ and an airfleet + navy. Also send the corp in Algeir to Gibraltar, and the Corp in Syria to Egypt, that way you got a couple more corp too. ~Norse~ [ October 16, 2002, 04:34 AM: Message edited by: Norse ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hans-micael Posted October 16, 2002 Author Share Posted October 16, 2002 thx for the reply - I've tried it against the AI - but its quite a bug. What are the chance for france to stay alive with only one corps still fighting? This is what happened in a PBEM - Paris down and just a single corps to defend the Tricolore...

Norse Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 If you take control of Paris, the French might still keep fighting for a couple turns. The chances aren't great for this, but they will keep fighting, if you haven't destroyed their military to a certain degree. Destroy more French units and then they surrender. Otherwise, you might be looking at a Free French unit. Historically, some French continued to fight after France had fallen. They were called the Free French. ~Norse~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
