RE: Will the Bicyclists ever be downgraded in F40?
"They were formed in the early 1930's and their mission was to fight an ennemy in the Ardennes region, which is a quite "tough" region (ask the American veterans who fought there in 1944 during the Battle of the Bulge). They were composed of men living there, so they knew the region quite well. Although their mission was to arrass the ennemy (delaying actions, ambushes, sabotage,...), like commandos, they were equiped like ordinary divisions. They had 75 mm guns (24 of them were Bofors 75 mm M34 montain guns), probably 105mm field guns, T13 tank destroyers and T15 light tanks, trucks (FN 63C-4weel drive, GMC trucks)."

All right, I stand corrected. Obviously those fellows just didn't have bikes. von ege ::cool:
