I can never accurately figure out scrapping for the French and what that will mean for what I hope the Free French can do later in the war, but then I have played a lot more with the alternative Vichy rules than without. Returning to RaW Vichy confuses me. So I just scrap their 2 factor ART, maybe a mid-30s FTR (?), and nothing else.

Concerning France, if I had no intention of spending BP's on say...ARTY, then I would scrap away in that unit type. I think it all depends on what type of units you plan on purchasing and how many.

I hear you about the alternative Vichy rules. I love that system!

As I favor having the largest possible FF navy, I never scrap French TRS or AMPHs if it means there'll be an odd number of them in their force pool in 1940 - since FF gets half of those - but rounded down.

Agreed. The Free French TRS are very valuable in the game.
