And where are the Italians? Belgium was completed two years ago but it keeps changing with available maps and/or intended format of publication.
British OB : make a guess !
I've designed some French vs Italians scenarios but most of them make use of the desert paper maps to depict mountainous terrain (the Alp mountains). Need to rework all the stuff.
Nothing yet on Belgian colonial troops in Africa...(oh well, yes ... but for ASL...)

Much like the AK British. Then add some 18/25 lbrs and Matilda I's. At least that's what I did.

OK for these, of course. Anything else ?
BEF should add 8 new maps to the French ones.

BEF should add 8 new maps to the French ones. Well not for the British, unless you think the Mk III cruiser tank is significantly different from the the Mk IV cruiser, which appeared in Afrika Korps. Both were from the A13 project. The Mk IV might be a little faster, because it had a Christie suspension. There should be the addition of some Belgian & Dutch vehicles. German paratroops might be nice, not so much for Eben-Emael, but rather bridge capture interdiction missions the performed.
... More and more, people around the world are coming to realize that the world is flat!

No, I'm pretty OK with cruisers style from AK : A9, A10 and A13 with some minor modifications. There's more room regarding the armored cars, the guns and the infantry.
No Dutch this time but some Belgians could already be present in BEF (!!) and German commandos too.

The crew quality probably isn't as good. Most of the forward armor thinkers were sent to the Western Desert Force, so they wouldn't bother the more "practical" commanders. While I don't have any real solid info on British armored cars, it seems to be pretty much the Morris, Dingo & Guy. So far, only the Dingo has made an appearance (Waltzing Matilda), looking remarkably like a Humber Scout, and it wasn't the Daimler.
