On a side note, this is why having an officer is vital. Idrissa was right, and not because he was worried about his family. In the context of this game, they should absolutely have waited for some form of support. Any coordinated German counter-attack would have wiped them out. What started out as a company of soldiers whittled down to 3 men. That's a tremendous waste of life in the pursuit of glory. And in most circumstances, morale would have broken long before that.

[@michaelweston409]

speakdino10 I don’t see it really as a victory. What started as more than a 100 men ended with less the a dozen alive or injured. If the Germans had any reinforcements in the area they would’ve easily pushed the Senegalese troops back into the swamps of southern France.

[@jackj9816]

This is supported by the fact that the French main force literally shows up right as they take the castle

[@leonrobinson2053]

Not necessarily, they would have orders given to them already and any officer or nco present would be trained to act within the boundary of those orders or there duty. That being said they were a light infantry unit and traditionally most of there duties would have been to scout the enemy, attack small or equal size units and relay the information about large units. The only reason not to engage any enemy is if they have sniper support or they are heavy infantry or cavalry as they would stream roller you.

They weren't that many senegalese tirailleurs in WWII, that was in the Great War. In fact, the biggest french colonial troops were coming from Maghreb. Especially from Marocco and Algeria, and this is one of the reasons that will lead to a discontent or antifrench feeling in the region after the war ended, eventually leading to the war of Algeria, which was very unpopular, and discredited the army from popular opinion, it is believed to be the dirtiest war France ever fought in (the war was based on the escalation of violence, massacres were committed from both sides, and the algerian civilians suffered a lot. Many of the french soldiers came back from the war with the sentiment of being nothing but murderers, and it impacted a lot the France of 1960).

In January 1944 Eisenhower's Chief of Staff, Major General Walter Bedell Smith, was to write in a memo stamped, "confidential": "It is more desirable that the division mentioned above consist of white personnel.

[@Blazcowitz1943]

This was my favorite War story in BFV, mainly because its the most action focused and its a more traditional "Soldier story" since its mainly about a group of soldiers overcoming their adversities rather than just one or two people. While I appreciate them giving some attention to the lesser known forces like the French Colonial troops, the way it portrays them being treated is simply incorrect. While I'm not saying they didn't face discrimination because they certainly did, during the war and post war, it makes out as if the French army treated it black soldiers like the U.S army did, which it didn't. The French army had used colonial troops for hundreds of years so they didn't have to "earn" the right to fight because they had been doing so for a long time and were not segregated from the white troops. I think a better story would have been to portray a unit of French soldiers, white and black, fighting to hold the German advance on Dunkirk and when the battle ends and they surrender, they stand tall knowing that they have done proud by themselves and their comrades, but as they are taken prisoner the white and black soldiers are separated with the white French soldiers being marched away into captivity and the black French soldiers marched away and executed. That would have presented a more stark picture of the attitudes of the time.

Black Senegalese soldiers were often overlooked and underappreciated for their outstanding bravery and courage that played a huge role in fighting the Nazis and without them, it would have taken longer to win the war.

Were French people at the time racist ? Yes, up to a point. Was this something remarquable at the time ? Not really.

@Darth Maul Technically they wouldn't be able to use the Lebel from BF1, as it is an older Lebel, chambered in 8mm lebel. By 1940, the french army had switched to 7.5 french, and the lebels still in use were substantially modified to accept the new cartridge. The rifle became much smaller, with a pityful three shot capacity, and was issued to non-combatants. The african troops fighting in the french first army at the time depicted in the game would have carried a mix of M1 Garand, M1 Carbines and Mas 36. Occasionnaly you would find the odd Berthier or Lebel, but only on non essential staff, like cooks or artillery gunners.

Having the German air force in this battle is highly unlikely They were nearly destroyed by American-British bombing of factories and air fields. By 1944 the German Air Force was basically wiped out so having them as a major fighter in the battle is inaccurate. They were either destroyed or in battle with allied fighter planes.

[@TheHawk1202]

That's not totally true papa stalin. During 1944 and even 1945 Germany was producing A LOT of planes. They made underground factories which were more productive than the surface factories. It was truly impressive. The more factories the USAAF and the RAF destroyed, the more underground factories popped. What Germany was lacking by the end of the war was simply experienced pilots, like Japan. And of course the lack of petrol. So in 1944 the Luftwaffe was giving her last sigh but they could still fight.

+_jeff _ Not really. They manufactured the fock wulf “long nose" which was way more powerful than the P 51. But yeah it was really not easy to make the me 262 fly even if once in the air those 30mm could erase a b17 in no time.

Because it had "better" armament? Yeah right. The P-51 had greater fuel capacity and range, and by 1945 your precious Me-262s which would have a tough time taking off without exploding were being shot down by P-51s.

The Americans were shitting themselves when they saw the Me 262 because they couldn't catch it. BUT when in dogfight the Me 262 was fucked, it's turn rate and acceleration was bad and that's how american pilots used to kill them.

I like the general tone. Howewer the whole thing looks like an american writer transferring his nation's racism issues to France. According to wikipedia, the american restrictions on the size of the free french army were the reason why DeGaulle disbanded the Tirallieurs (after the liberation of FRANCE, not Paris) and several conflicts arised around the very mundane fact that the french refused to pay them their wages (which were fairly owed to them, of course).

Im reading these comments and i have no faith in humanity. Battlefield is a game loosely based on actual events, they didn't happen exactly like the story is portrayed but they did happen. Look it up France, UK, Belgium, and U.S. have always used African, African American Asian, and Arab soldiers in their armies for years. They treated them like dirt and did not speak of their battlefield achievements because they were seen as beneath them and unworthy. Look it up even today decades later these countries are now giving these men the medals they deserved now that the truth is coming out. Also alot of the soldiers in the colonial army were forced to fight a war for a country that occupied, pillage, and raped them routinely. So to the guy who brought up rape by colonial soldiers, it goes both ways. I dont condone rape but in every army there are rapists and murders among the ranks, it not just limited to a certain group or country.

So no, the Algerians were not conquered or massacred... on the contrary, we beat their executioners, and created a country to welcome them and give them a home (and again, it was not a country, but rather a French region).
