Imo, the "merge with Britain" option should not end your game in single player, but give you control of the franco-british union instead

[@rps215]

Hopefully they patch that so it is done properly

[@Kandall05161]

There are a lot of little things like this that really need to be fixed, little bugs and problems that have been in the game for YEARS now that ruin playthroughs. It's why HOI4 needs a custodian team like Stellaris has IMO, to fix and add small patches to the old DLCs that barely work anymore. Off the top of my head; Ottoman empire cores are janky, Kuwait is considered part of "French Syria" despite being British and not Syrian. Alexandria is not cored by the Egyptian cores decision. If you play disunited Yugoslavia and sign the tripartite act, you get a "civil war" that takes over your entire country instantly and ends the game, have yet to find a way around it. The entire Spanish civil war barely functions since NSB, alt history Spanish paths are nearly impossible now Bulgaria's "predetermined territorial claims" being granted to them by a puppet German government, or losing your puppets lands to a free Bulgaria without any choice India can wind up in a situation where they have a civil war and 'Free india' is in the Allies while 'Dominion of India' is not...still not sure what exactly causes that. TFV focuses in general are just abysmal now and often times worse than just playing with default trees. And of course; Franco British union being an instant 'lose the game' button. Supposedly made for the AI to take in Ahistorical mode but I haven't seen them take the option since MTG...

I actually live in New Caledonia and I have no clue why It would be Free France's capital, however it was one of the most important ports in the pacific and over 1million Americans went through new caldonia during ww2

[@ralfantino2291]

When France capitulated in ww2 France’s African colonies stayed loyal to Petain and only France’s pacific, Indian and equatorial African possessions (Congo, CAR and Chad😎) joined free France, but not in HOI4. In our timeline the free French government was based in London, However HOI4 does not simulate this so the capital moves to the largest city in the country which since the African possessions were very underdeveloped at the time is Noumea. Only after the recapture of Africa did the free French government move to Algiers making it the capital of free France

This is what I mean when I say that after By Blood Alone, paradox needs to chill down a while and correct everything with the game. We have shit old trees like france, the commonwealth and china, we have old but reasonably decent trees that could use some tweaks like the US, the UK, maybe Japan and a few very good trees like the USSR, the netherlands, maybe spain and turkey. I mean, the ussr has a 70 day focus that gives you 10 military factories. They have a 35day focus that gives you an extra operative slot and allows you to assassinate trotsky, which gives you 15% stability once done. France has 70day focus that tives you some compliance in the colonies. Playing the soviets and france feels like playing different games, playing france feels like playing hoi3

While they're grouped with New Caledonia in this, the group of islands to the right of New Caledonia at 1:23 were called the New Hebrides (now Vanuatu). It was a condominium between the British and the French. This resulted in two different communities formed where one is Anglophone while the other is Francophone (a divide that still exists). This also resulted in two different governments to rule their respective communities. A partially elected joint administration became a thing in 1975 until they got their independence in 1980 and they now have a single parliament

@@delta2372 As I see it, Free and Vichy France having 23-24 focuses is probably due to the fact that after France capitulates, you're not gonna care about what ideology you are, or developing colonies (these 2 are a massive part of the French focus tree), you're only gonna care about getting your country back.

I had pretty much the opposite experience I was playing as France to challenge myself, he was playing Britain so that he's somewhat safe but can still participate in the war in a meaningfull manner (to be fair, it wasnt his first ever rodeo, but still sub 50 hours). I was holding the Germans back in the north and Maginot, was moving into Italy. Meanwhile he was hyperfocusing on something extremely unrelated, while i was pleading for him to arrive in Italy ASAP, as i was being overrun from the Tyrol front. As a sidenote, i was literally at the gates of rome at this point. He just goes "No i cant, africa is more important". Suffice to say, i had to retreat out of there, cost me a massive amount of equipment, which caused me to slowly loose against the Axis. Once i had to surrender, he rubbed it into my nose how he was oh so much better than me since he didnt crumble and needed help (i counter pushed italy from tunisia while they were starting to gobble up egypt, so much for that). Once i did crumble, he lost the will to keep fighting since he was now also facing the masses of Germans.
