    True. I thought about that. At least the french unit in England should become Free French.

    I agree.  What about the FREE FRENCH?  Have a roll-off for each territory / Sea Zone.  highest roll wins.  Some become AXIS, some remain ALLIES

    This also makes it random and more interesting every time.

    Good idea. That should work. What do you think about the idea of Germany “acquiring” the French ships it defeats?

    Not sure if that is needed if you have a roll-off after the fall of Paris.  But then again, I have not play tested either of these.

    Historically, french territories in a Vichy rules system should be distributed like this…

    Germany (or Italy): Paris, Normandy/Bordeaux (6 IPC).
    Vichy France: Southern France, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, French West Africa, Syria, Madagascar and French Indochina (11 IPC).
    Free France: French Central Africa, French Equatorial Africa, New Hebrides (2 IPC).

    The French Navy should remain Vichy, considering the treacherous British attack on the French Fleet at Mers-el-Kébir.

    Every Vichy territories captured by the allies should be switched back to Free France.

    I’m not sure how units could be placed on the map for Free France. Maybe they could be allowed to place directly in French equatorial Africa (or in London!) but could only buy infantry.
