June 1940 is in France 40, and the
only matilda 2s you will see is
if the mixed matilda 1&2 coy is bought (rare). And it is mainly matilda 1.
Perhaps the original poster is mixing up Matilda 1 (little thing with a MG only) with matilda 2 (big brute with a 2 pounder)?. Or - he is mixing up 1941 (desert) with 1940 (France)?.
If it is the desert - matildas in 41 are reasonably common, as there were many in the RTR regiments. (They even made it to Malta - I have seen a picture of one being used to tow a pranged early-model blenheim off a runway.)
New EXE changes
AI pick has been changed for the new EXE to make cruisers more common vs GE in 41, and in 40 and 41, to use A10 heavies (sic
! - these have been changed to "light infantry tank" class in thier own formations. Were reasonably common in france 40, early desert war, and Greece. Dates also changed for A10 - were only in service from 39.
Also changed it to be more cruiser oriented vs Italy to 42, as the Italians have a real bad time with Matildas and Valentines with only the 47mm gun. (need the 75mm AA gun, which is big, and has limited AP ammo).
The UK OOB now has the AT-roled 25 pounder, which it will buy in the defence in the early desert war period.
All this should make playing vs the UK easier in 41 as GE and IT.
The Indians still rely pretty much on Matildas (the Indian divisions usually had UK RTR regiments attached - if the ID tags are on, you will see these have UK flags) and the Australians may use captured M13-40 sometimes.
