Boy why do the french get such a bad rep for world war2. Why did everybody else get off scot free? (Poland, Norway, Low countries..etc)
France is cool.
This is the best part:
Level Three is "Collaboration." Here the players battle to see who can collect the largest numbers of pairs of nylon stockings and packages of chocolates by having Lucky Pierre perform sexual favors for members of the occupying forces. Level Four is "Be Ungrateful to America for Rescuing Your Sorry French Ass Once Again." In this extremely challenging part of the game contestants vie with one another to see who can make Lucky Pierre behave in the surliest manner when the United States inevitably comes to the rescue of the defeated French.

To be fair, the poles had little they could fight with, and they put up a valiant struggle - truly noble.

Poland and the low countries didn't really surrender, just overrun incredibly fast. You see old war movies of the great Polish calvary charging at Panzers. That is not laying down and surrendering.Originally posted by faded glory

The French surrendered to the Germans in the Franco-prussian war.
When it comes to fighting germany, they're 0-1-2.
The germans came very close to making the frogs surrender in wwI, but the Limeys were callous enough to sve them. Then, 3 years later, we came in fresh and the Germans soiled themselves.

Eh, that's mildly amusing. I think people just don't try any more when it comes to making things funny.
Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost.

1-2-1 (W-L-T)
Lets add in the 30 Years War. French would have gotten their asses kicked if they weren't saved by the Swedish and other Germans. 1-2-2.

Yeah. Everyone knows they should have just built a phalanx and fortified it at a mountain fortress.

1-2-1 is bull, because Napoleon was in one era before that. plus, Germany was not one when he gave Europe love. so we only count from 1870, and that'd be 0-1-2.

mountain: +200
fortress: +50
fortify: +50
possibly veteran: +50
def = 2*(1+2+.5+.5+.5) = 9.
A mere armor of us would have crushed them
and Greece, and Yugoslavia, although these were probably more of a challenge than Albania or the Abessinian horsemen (armed with spears). but then, still no match for a great power, which Italy obviously wasn'tOriginally posted by ThePantaloonDog

And Napoleon defeated the Prussians repeatedly, but seriously has France ever surrendered since they acquired nuclear weapons?

Has France ever been in a war since they've had nukes?
BTW, Napoleon defeated Prussia once. Prussia then defeated Napoleon, after his Russian campain.
