Well the French were going to hand that Fleet over to the Germans when they could have agreed to be under British command and keep fighting. They picked the wrong side so ended them because thats the kind of people we are.

Push the British so far and we'll just complain, push just alittle harder and we'll leave you with a smoking ruin.

Duke Malcolm, is that a comment on the garrison or my figures. A modern Infantry Battalion is three Reifle Companies, a support company and a Headquaters Company. Over all it comes to about 1,000 men, add to that 200 techies to fix the tanks etc.
