Michael Emrys Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 May I assume that it should be possible to model French forces in the base game since they were using the same TO&E as the US forces? And that the same should apply to the Poles in the first module? Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Steve did say this in the CMSF forums not too far back: Likewise, Commonwealth for Normandy will likely have the equivalent of three nations AT LEAST in it. But in this case we have two advantages: 1. A huge chunk of equipment exists in the base game (e.g. Shermans, Stuarts, etc.). While they can't be used 100% exactly the same, it is a big help to have something to work from. 2. The Commonwealth Forces were based on a common structure with common equipment. Not 100% exactly the same, but compared to something like modern German and Canadian... they are vastly more same than different.

Battlefront.com Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 The French had slightly different equipment since they were using a lot of hand-me-downs. For example, White Scout Cars for recon and Springfields as a common rifle. That said, from what I remember the French TO&E wasn't all that different than American. But it's not something I've looked into for many years and I'm sure it's not quite as simple as that. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
