Or try it with the Free French, who also used UK equipment.[;)]
there is no Free French OOB in Oct 42......
[:D]

Not the OOB, but there ARE FF units in the basic French OOB in 1942. As a matter of fact, the Free French units come into play in June or July 1940, after the capitulation of the French gov't.

The French OOB from mid-1940 to the end of 1942 is both Free French and Vichy French units, with differing weapons.

Riun T,
 
So once again you go rushing ahead.  And once again you get impatient.  And once again you start something that hasn't been thought through fully.  And once again you will be playing a completely different campaign from me.  Sigh. 
 
I really don't understand why you get so impatient.  If you had waited we could have played using the same rules.
 
For example, you realize of course that you are using American artillery response times right?  And that right there ruins the campaign.  If you had waited I could have shown you how to reset the campaign so that you don't have American flags and American artillery.  And so your campaign is too easy already.  And your settings are too easy, too.  Why didn't you wait? 
 
Oh well. . .

Riun T,
 
I also notice that you aren't even using Enhanced DVRN.  Why not?

Alby,

I think FlashFyre is correct regarding the Free French.  However, I've tried editing the campaign to play Free French and the campaign editor will not let me choose the French Flag.  So you are correct that I cannot take the French for the Long Long Road campaign.

I'm thinking about starting this campaign using the Canadians.  That was FlashFyre's choice for me and I think his choice is still a good and challenging one.  Are you okay with the core force I chose?

The settings I'll be using are the Cataclysm/FlashFyre settings previously discussed in other threads. The only differences between Cataclysm and FlashFyre: A) Cataclysm gives the computer 110% Searching, Hitting, and Rout/Rally, and B) Cataclysm sets artillery to 120%.

However, two changes for this campaign.

1) Reduced Squads ON hurts the human player in a custom designed campaign, and so I will be using Reduced Squads ON.
2) Reduced Ammo ON hurts the human player in a custom designed campaign, and so I will be using Reduced Ammo ON.

Settings below:
