RATING:

The French Forces of the Interior (Forces françaises de l'Intérieur) mostly consisted of resistance fighters who used their own weapons, although many FFI units included former French soldiers. They used civilian clothing and wore an armband with the letters "F.F.I." As regions of France were liberated, the FFI were more formally organized into light infantry units and served as a valuable manpower addition to regular Free French forces. According to General Patton, the rapid advance of his army through France would have been impossible without the fighting aid of the FFI. General Patch estimated that from the time of the Mediterranean landings to the arrival of U.S. troops at Dijon, the help given to the operations by the FFI was equivalent to four full divisions. FFI units seized bridges, began the liberation of villages and towns as Allied units neared, and collected intelligence on German units in the areas entered by the Allied forces, easing the Allied advance through France in August 1944.

This mission will see a company sized element of FFI forces spring into action in a scenario loosely grounded in reality. The company will take on largely unprepared German garrison mostly comprising of reserve troops during a daring raid that aims to secure and destroy key points of infrastructure within the area. Luckily for us, recently we have been joined by a pair of British commandos that will aid us with their expertise and contact with allied air assets.
