I was reading about the Polish retreat into Romania for school assignment and I can't for the life of me find out how exactly the Polish military got from Romania all the way to France. I've been searching about this to no avail, if anyone knows about this, your knowledge would be greatly appreciated!
(If youre a beginner with bronze tier generals, then this is for you.)
When playing as France, you are fighting 3 fronts in Europe, one front in Africa, and one in Asia. Playing France in 1939 is a toughie and would end up being crushed by Mansteins army or maybe get crushed from the south by Graziani and Spain.
With all of the enemies coming at you, I recommend saving your generals but only a few such as, Gamelin (Motorized, 2 star Infantry), Juin (Motorized, 2 star infantry), Leclerc (Heavy Tank, 5 Star Panzer), and De Gaulle (Howitzer, 4 star artillery), Darlan (Battleship, 3 star navy). The generals listed can be sent out to fight but you would need to use them wisely as having them fight a general better than them is plain reckless. (Ex: Having Gamelin fight Graziani). The other 2 Generals (Petain & Tassigny) Should be stationed in your cities as their Economic expert skill allows you to gain more money each round.
Europe is your main problem as Paris is the heart of your empire. You will have Spain, Italy, and Germany attacking you from all of your borders in the mainland so youβre already in a pickle. You first have to block Germany from touching you by having the units that are in Northern France block them in the Benelux. You should only use your ground forces for the earliest time in the game as Germany will send Strong reinforcements so I highly advise that once you occupy Amsterdam once Germany Destroys it (use your forces defending the benelux or use paratroopers). Once you have occupied Amsterdam, you will need to Spend some of your money on garrisoning the city with ARMORED CARS OR LIGHT TANKS because after you occupy the city, Germany will spend the rest of its game trying to take it (Sometimes even ignoring Belgium lol). So after round after round, you keep defending Amsterdam. Thats your strong hold on stopping the German attack ( I also highly advise that you spam build bunkers in the netherlands after you reach level 2 in the game). I also recommend finishing the Maginot line by building bunkers at your border with Belgium (incase) and have De Gaulle defending your north and use him to kill Manstein, Rommel, and Guderian (If the German ai decides to send him at the western front which is a likely chance they will) and have Petain Stationed to a city where the German ai would not use their airforce.
The next thing you should take care of is the Southern Front which includes fighting Spain and Italy (land & sea). Use Lecler

Did France make any preparations for the case of that the newly victorious and Fascist-aligned Francoist regime decided to invade from the South to help Hitler, as Mussolini did?
