Help with New Guinea and Armies of Great Britain discrepancies
https://preview.redd.it/tgu75eb6pm281.jpg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=497adf11f31cdd309c415f11690adce7b9088f91
Hi all,
A friend and I are planning to play through the full New Guinea campaign book over Christmas, so I'm trying to figure out my various lists for the scenarios in the book. When building a list for "Lark Force", the Aussie force used in scenario 1, the Lark Force rules say
" All units in this force must be Inexperienced; the only exception is the Cap- tain or Major, who may be Regular to represent the small number of World War I veterans who held commissions in Lark Force."
But the Lark Force Reinforced Platoon allows for things like a sniper team, which only come in Regular or Veteran in the Armies of Great Britain book. How do you handle discrepancies like this? Play them as inexperienced and just pay the cost for a regular unit, as listed in the Armies of book?
Also - any way to build Lark force in Easy Army? It doesn't show up as a pre-made force, and I haven't figured out a way to add militia sections and inexperienced AIF sections in the same list, they only show up as "regular" or veteran".
Thanks!

What if Great Britain signed a armistice with Nazi Germany in 1940 after the fall of France?
In this timeline Lord Halifax becomes PM of Great Britain and after the defeat of France in just 6 weeks signs a separate peace with Hitler. The armistice would include a iron clad clause that saids the Nazis would respect all territories of the British Empire, and it also included returning all POWs resumption of trade and a open agreement to split up France's over seas empire.
Hitler who never actually had ambitions to conquer the British Empire quickly agrees to the terms with the clause that states that France and the rest of Europe would fall under the German sphere of influence and French colonies in North Africa and the Middle East would fall to German authority while colonies in africa, and Asia would go to Britain or the Japanese Empire.
With the western front effectively closed how does the rest of WW2 go? Assuming the Germans still invade the USSR do the additional troops and material knock out the Soviets? With England out of the war does the USA still get sucked into WW2?
