I've tried to set-up battles (for PBEM) between the US and French in SPWW2 to simulate the US Torch landings but it always reverted to a battle in mainland france, not the colonies. I assume/hope in WinSPWW2 there will the option to choose the specific location (like Morocco, Algeria, west-africa, syria, madagascar, New caledonia, french indochina, to name a few locations I hope will be present) for generated battles with the vichy french?

Vichy France will have it's own AI picklist and battle locations but they will be tied to date and opponent as is done now.

Which makes sense but some of these locations are interesting what if scenario's (what if New Caledonia didn't become free french or Indochina did (and was subsequently invaded)? What if the free french did invade some of the Vichy territories in west africa? etc) or interesting in a different time frame. What if Torch never happened and the allies landed in France in '43 (or even '44) with an intact Vichy france?
Will the options for battle locations be limited to purely historical campaigns and battles or leave room for these what-ifs? All you'd really need is a list of Vichy territories (and could have been Vichy territories) to pick from during the entire duration of the existence of the Vichy OB, whether the territory was still part of Vichy france or not. You'd get those options via the terrain editor screen during start-up of a battle if you pick Vichy france as a side. Assuming that's possible code wise.
