JonS Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Yep, and the Indians and Brazlians. Together we formed the 3rd Southern Hemisphere Army, on the left flank of 21st Army Group. The ANZACs formed one corps within 3rd (SH) Army, the Indians another, and the Brazilians rounded out with Mexicans, Greeks, Jews, and Hungarians the third. We liberated Bordeaux, donchaknow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 That goes under the header of "you learn something everyday"... Interesting info....I had no idea Brazil or Mexico had anybody fighting. Mord. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1966 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I have a dim recollection of a Brazillian scenario (in Italy) in ASL. Think it was in one of the ASL annuals. Must admit that that is the only reason I was aware of Brazil's involvement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Expeditionary_Force 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjkerner Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 IIRC, Mexico had a fighter squadron in the ETO. Italy was a regular Allies' Ellis Island. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 As I recall Mexico had a P-51 squadron in the Phillipines in '45 but maybe they had more than one. Jon however is pulling our legs about the 3rd SH army in France. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 This is pure conjecture, but I expect mostly we may be talking about independent buildings including windmills and terrain options like dikes perhaps. I don't know what will be the requirements for modules and what not, but I expect if you build a scenario using either the ToE or map using the items in the module, folks would have to have it to play it. Good conjecture! There's a new feature that got put into the game that hasn't yet been used... Region. CM:BN will be the first to use that. Regions can be introduced with Modules and scenario makers use that setting to get the terrain options for that particular area. If you don't have a Module with that Region you can't load the map any more than you could if there was a Module specific unit in it. In other words, there's nothing different about how this works from an end user standpoint than how the existing Modules for CM:SF work.

Just to avoid confusion, the French should be under US command, not UK. But I don't know at what point in the production cycle their units will be introduced into the game.
