French Force Pool
After set up and reserves, the french have the following:
| Type | Pool |
|---|---|
| Arm | 1 |
| Mech | 1 |
| Mot | 2 |
| Inf | 0 |
| Gar | 4 |
| HQ-I | 1 |
| Mil | 3 |
| Mtn | 1 |
In 1940, the french will add 1 HQ-A, 1 INF, 1 MAR.
Without British help, they will produce 5 BP (Assuming 3 resources imported) in 1939, and 7 in 1940.
If the British give 4 resources, that will improve to 7 in 1939 and 10 in 1940, at a cost of 2 CW BP per turn in 1939 and 3/turn in 1940. If the convoys are there, it might make more sense to lend the BP directly.
| Turn | BP | Builds |
|---|---|---|
| SO 1939 | 5 | 1 HQ-I |
| ND 1939 | 9 (4 BP/8 res from CW) | 1 Pilot, 2 Gar, 1 Lnd-3 |
| JF 1940 | 9 (2 BP/3 res from CW) | 1 Inf, 2 Gar, 1 Ftr-2 |
| MA 1940 | 6 (1 BP/1 res to CW) | 3 Mil |
If you're still alive at that point, build some air or lend everything else to the Commonwealth. Also, if the situation is hopeless, lend everything to the CW, the Vichy declaration happens after the lending stage, so the CW might as well benefit from the French production.
